I think it's funny when the renders look better than the actual product. That's just my take on the post above : ) they got it super close. Don't suppose they've rendered a Supra?
to be fair the guys with photoshop dont have to deal with real world factors like: safely regulations, engineer, and bean counters. and no i didnt see any Supra renderings on his account. :(

I know it's Jalopnik... but a little on the Z4 exhaust:

I'm assuming the Supra exhaust will be similar in that it's actuated based on the drive mode the car is in? Was there any word if Yamaha had a hand in the acoustics of MKV? At least from all the videos we've seen thus far MKV sounds mean!

Can someone help me out here?
the BMW website says the E89s Top Speed is 165, yet the G29 will be 161?

Hmmm, Z4 definitely sounds like it got the A90 engine. It's raspier and angrier compared to the B58 mules and sounds more like the goodwood A90

The Z4 is now on BMW Canada's website. It's odd that it mentions both 340hp and 382hp. :what:

I've read people mentioning overboost a couple of times and I didn't think they meant the good old overboost issues tuners have. From Google, apparently some manufacturers give more boost for a short period of time adding 10% more power. 382 is roughly 13% more power than 340 so... we might get overboost?!
