  1. New (Unconfirmed) Details and Specifications of US-Spec MKV Supra:

    $63.5k... An M2 starts at $54.5k (15% cheaper). Shouldn't this car be priced 15% lower than an M2, not higher, considering the BMW M brand markup? Even an M3 only starts at $64.5k. How many people will actually fall for the "But this is a real sports car no less than a 911!!!" sales pitch?
  2. 3rd gen G29 BMW Z4 (2019-202X)

    Wow. The base car is running only ~0:10 slower than the 2009 GT-R record without some black magic AWD!!! I was thinking about settling for a used 2013 GT-R... but I should wait and see what the GRMN version has. It must be cheaper to maintain than a GT-R as well.
  3. Collection of information: what we know so far

    Thanks a lot for the update. Btw, do we know how the rest of the drivetrain of the turbo 4cyl differs from the 6cyl's other than the engine?
  4. Collection of information: what we know so far

    I spent the last few days thinking about the 6-cyl version and it is difficult for me to justify buying a $65k Toyota that essentially shares the same engine with a $45k BMW. We all know that the engine of a car is not everything and that the Toyota is supposed to be a light-weight sports car...
  5. Spied: Toyota benchmarking Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997) for new Supra?

    A70TTR, Has there been any confirmation as to how much spec-A will cost? Is it going to be any lighter than spec-B?
  6. Spied: Toyota benchmarking Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997) for new Supra?

    Another interesting comparison would be against Toyota's own Lexus RC-F. The RC-F starts at 64k and comes with a 467hp V8. It is exciting to think about what kind of performance the spec-B will have when all the money that goes to the brand tax and unnecessary luxury features of a Lexus is...
  7. Spied: Toyota benchmarking Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997) for new Supra?

    If the new Supra's priority is performance, then hopefully it comes close to the old GT-R's numbers (2009 - 7:29). I think Alfa QV is at 7:32 with auto and Camaro ZL1 is at 7:29.
  8. Spied: Toyota benchmarking Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997) for new Supra?

    65k for the spec-B!!!! This car must be a serious performer. Lots of exciting cars near the price range (Vette, M3/M4, Giulia Quadrifoglio, Cayman S, AMG C63, etc.) and some of these come with V8 and almost 500hp. I was originally expecting an M2 type of car, but now I am wondering how the...
  9. Performances Predictions for fun

    Also, getting closer to 60k would require Toyota to fight an extreme uphill battle against Porsche as the Cayman S starts at $67.7k, but has a mid-engine layout and only weighs 2988lbs.
  10. Performances Predictions for fun

    I wonder how competitive the car would be at 50-60k range assuming the BMW leak specs. The current gen BMW M240i, 335hp/369lb-ft, starts at 45k.. The Infiniti Q60 Red Sport 400 starts at $52k and I assume the next Z (if there is one) will be 10-15% cheaper (maybe mid-high $40ks for the 400hp...
