I realise there is a difference between the Coyote and the Voodoo. Never driven the Voodoo but the Coyote surprised me in regards to the revs it likes. i mean, it's no S2000 but it's not all bottom end torque either, tremendous engine.
My understanding is the Voodoo likes way more revs and won't pull as hard below 4,000RPM but i heard one on the throttle a few months back and dear me it was a hell of a noise. |

It really is but i do wish they offered a proper quality interior, even for a hefty price, i'd pay it. let's say 10K for Alcantara and higher quality leather and plastics.

It's an awkward interior. Even if it were made of the best materials, it's still weird. But the engine sounds fantastic, even if it eats more oil than a rotary.

All someone has to do to obtain a test drive, is display a serious intent to purchase the vehicle FROM THAT DEALER. The rarer (and higher-demand) the vehicle, the more you'll have to convince the dealer you're serious. That's why nearly anyone can test drive a Honda Accord; yet test driving a Ferrari requires a lot more proof of serious intent.

At least you can just go drive a Z4 at any BMW dealer. It's close enough. Driving a regular GT Mustang isn't nearly the same as being able to drive a GT350.

Maybe it's time to go full Fight Club on that dealer?

So I recently looked at a 2020 Supra and a 2018 M240i (10k miles).
I ended up buying the BMW. Same engine, 30k cheaper, has back seats and a trunk, and you don't feel claustrophobic in the car. Plus I don't bang my skull on the frame every time I get in the M240i. Oh and the biggest reason, the M240i comes in Manual. I'm not going to knock anyone who buys a Supra, because I think they're nice cars and I love the rear end, but I just don't see the current appeal against the comparable BMWs. If I had a choice between a 2020 M240i and a Supra, I'd still get the M240i. Just my 2 cents.

Throw a tune on the M240i and they're the same car. 3.8-3.9 second 0-60.

I forgot to mention the 2nd biggest deal breaker after the manual. The wind buffeting issue and no sunroof.
That last one is personal preference obviously, but not being able to drive your 50k dollar car with the windows down is ridiculous.

Supra is a good car, but like others have mentioned I wouldn't buy one for the styling, lack of practicality, buffeting or auto-only trans. I do wish BMW would let Toyota tune their steering or learn from them, because the Supra's steering and feel is superior to that of BMW's.
