We have no idea of performance yet so obviously no comment there. Aesthetically that prototype Z grill is hideous. It's as if the designers just gave up and decided on a generic rectangle? I hope that was the case and not because they needed all that for thermal efficiency. The power upgrade path might be limited by thermal efficiency if they need all of that huge gaping grill for cooling so soon.
The Supra was not love at first sight for me. I mean it took me a while to grow to admire the Supra. I like it quite a bit now after getting used to it. Toyota designers went full tllt to get as close as possible to the concept car. I appreciate the risk they took.
The designers of the Z seem like they ran out of original ideas? They just picked apart design elements from past Z and kind of mashed everything together and used heritage for a excuse for design? I will say the side profile does look decent, probably because it has a slight Jag F-Type shape/silhouette?
The interior is kind of a wash for me between the 2. I wish the Supra dash display had more info. The Z dash looks better from that perspective. The center screen in the Z looks better also. The Supra seats look better to me. I think the carbon fiber center console is a nice touch in the Supra. It's probably just enough carbon fiber to bait buyers into buying more TRD trim parts in the future. lol.
Honestly I am not a Z hater. I owned a 370Z and loved the design of the wide hips/rear fenders. I hope the new Z gets fine tuned a little more design wise.
