Good or bad?
Sounds too “diesely.” Not Supra-like.

This is a good sign, Toyota D4S is generally loud af hahaha
Guff, my 2007 IS350 had DI and never sounded this loud. Hope this is a pre-production thing that will get ironed out. I hate diesel-like noises from engines....unless its a Cummins.

That's because Toyota and Lexus generally put big sound deadening panels over the DI pumps to mitigate noise. The pumps themselves are pretty loud a lot of the time. Porsche DI pumps are loud as all hell too, its pretty funny hearing one idling.

Just need a louder exhaust and some ethanol to make the noise go away though :p

FYI, BMW engines are known for being noisy. My N54 with its piezo injectors is annoyingly loud at times.

Watch his Insta story too. He is answering questions on there/also gives us a better look at the driving position.

Edit: I asked him for info on weight/power, he said it won't be released until the final production car is unveiled. His response can be seen in his story.

In the wildest news ever, the BMW collab was a hoax and in reality, Toyota has stuffed a 2JZ engine that fits modern emissions and safety standards!!

And then I woke up.
