^ well even then the dimensions may not really be a match. This is suppose to be a scalable platform allowing the Supra to be a tad bit longer and or wider...maybe?!?

I think what we will get out of the Z4 is knowing what the platform is made up of and possibly the weight to expect what Toyota's new car will come in at.
The press release said it will be a midsize, so Im assuming that means they will both be the same size :dunno:

2. Sports vehicle

- The companies agreed to set-up a feasibility study to define a joint platform concept for a mid-size sports vehicle that is to be completed by the end of 2013. The two companies aim to combine each other’s technology and knowledge at a high level to maximise customer satisfaction. Both companies are to share the vision to further collaborate in the field of sports vehicle development.

I think the red one looks the best. I still think Toyota's version will blow away the Z4 in terms of visible appeal.

In this comparison it look like the two will have the same height and wheelbase. The Toyota will just have more of a overhang.

I think it looked better with more camo, but I expect it will have typical BMW styling :sleep:. In these new spy pics it appears to be larger than the outgoing model.

Guess it looks alright so far. Not ugly and not jaw dropping. But yeah, it is typical BMW styling.
So I didn't expect anything outrageous.
If anything, I expected it to look almost similar to the outgoing Z4.

Lifted the shadows in Lightroom but there's nothing really there.

I guess we'll have to wait and see!
