I have watched most of the BRZ/86 reviews and haven't seen any that say the improvement in driving dynamics is substantial. The old car had great driving dynamics and was let down by bad tires and a weak engine that was tuned terribly. Lets not forget that they shipping the new cars with PS4S tires instead of Primacy tires of last gen. Yes handling improvements have been noted but most of the improvement is the engine.

All the reviews have been done on higher trim models with PS4S tires and we were discussing reviewers opinions.

I can't think of another new twin turbo 400hp manual RWD coupe for 45k. I personally would need a trim with an LSD, so I'll reserve judgment until final pricing is announced. But even at 50k, you would need to REALLY like the Supra to pay ~8-10k over this. I don't think it's 8-10k more car. The only advantage to me, and it is a big one, is the inline 6 engine.

The Zupra is hard for me to look at and would need a major exterior overhaul to even be considered. It'll get a manual soon and the factory ceiling of the B58 is higher than the VR30, but since I'm keeping my N54 I really don't want another car with a BMW engine though the power a B58TU1 makes with just a tune is really impressive. At this point I like to hold on to my cars for a long time, so hopefully Japanese reliability will be as nice this time as it's been in the past for me. |

I want to love this car but man, that interior is way too similar to my 370 that I owned 12 years ago

Well you're not wrong, the wiki says Kaminokawa, Tochigi. The question was more like why a truck and not a train to port.

I don't believe that for a second. That would be quicker than a G8x Comp rwd. Not a chance. What's the source?
