The BMW engines wouldn't be surprising. That has been speculated about plenty, and would save engineering costs to standardize the powertrains.

The bombshell would be ff it really is auto only. If the BMW does get the manual, but the Supra doesn't, then I think we have confirmation of a hybrid powertrain. .
Anytime

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised either. I'm just a little disappointed that they didn't stick in the new TT-V6 from the LS.

I don't think there will be a hybrid. There hasn't been a prototype spotted with a yellow sticker. Not to mention it would probably be pretty expensive.

Not really a surprise. BMW has said they are likely moving away from manuals and DCTs for autos. We'll see.

If they are, we won't get them in the US since we have stupid headlight laws.
