The ZF 8HP is a heavy transmission. It wouldn't surprise me that just because you can get the 4 cyl in a manual you lose 150 lbs right there.

I'm not loving it, and I really wanted to. It looks like they really wanted it to look like the FT-1 but couldn't, and tried too hard to hold on to it. The rear haunches and front bumper especially...

I agree with your points, but I'm pretty sure they will be cross-shopped.

This. If you don't want to deal with a manual, get the auto. There's no other reason to get one. You will never get in a situation where you need that 100ms shift.

The car will likely have similar pricing to the last gen Z4.



My bet, price is right rules:

$46,495 for the 4banger
$56,495 for the I6
$63,495 for the TRD

True, but add the LSD, the nice stereo, the color and wheels you want and it's 80 right away.

BMW has had a tendency to use viscous couplings and calling them clutch pack diffs, so I think it's likely the Supra will have one too. It's not a true clutch diff, there are clutch plates but they...

The high priced domestics have 500-700 HP. Much easier to sell those than a <400hp sports car to your typical American customer that can afford that price range, the ones wearing socks inside sandals.

Good points, I've always had trouble with predictability on short wheelbase cars, good to hear it's not a trait inherent to the short wheelbase!

Being off from 50/50 weight distribution is only a problem if you don't change the stagger of the tire widths/spring rates/sway bar rates to account for it. See Porsche.

Unless it's a convertible I don't see any benefit to ditching the rear seats. I would appreciate the extra 8-10" of wheelbase too.

I've found 3300 for the early bare bones turbo model. Numbers might be inconsistent across publications I guess.
