2020 Z....opinions

Since we're on opinions here, I think they should just kill the Z. No one is buying them, and they're not looking like they are going to put the VR30

Since we're on opinions here, I think they should just kill the Z. No one is buying them, and they're not looking like they are going to put the VR30 in the car. I get that it's a last "analog" car with it's manual transmission, port injection, and basic gauges, but at some point, the car itself is just plain outdated.

If I were in the market for a sports car now, I'd likely get a Supra. I'd go for the overall balance of performance and core experience of the car as a whole vs looking at features. Give me a base model with only the "performance" upgrades and i'm ready to go. I would likely modify it anyway, and I love how Toyota has set it up to do that; reinforced trunk lid, air flow that can be unblocked when necessary, and early access to the tuning companies (who already have some parts in working prototypes for the car). There would be no way I would even consider buying a new Z.

I care more about how the car over/understeers way more than whether I have to use a clutch to change gears, but It's all down to your priorities. You either adapt or get left behind.
