Now Nissan evaded that plan with the Z cuz an overwhelming 90% of Z enthusiasts said hell NO!!! But leave it to the overwhelming amount of Prius drivers to support such blasphemy!!!
I'm now Leary of Toyota and will 2nd question supporting the Supra, s oully based on future plans.

Nissan... Show Toyota how it's done.

420hp/420lbs tq w/DCT on a future Z with manual option. Let's go!!
The most shameful part. They're talking this mess b4 the public even drives this version. Smh.

Hybrid would offer the best performance.

Perhaps, but it would also cost you your balls.

I gave those up long ago.

10:1, if there ever is a new Z, it will be at least in part electric. Toyota knows that they need to move in that direction as well.

At least a hybrid powertrain would let you keep going when the juice ran out. After all, the idea of a true sports car is to take long drives from A to A, with no reason other than to drive. Time spent stopped, recharging batteries is time wasted. But hauling around the heft of meaningful batteries runs counter to the definition of a sports car. Supra is too heavy in current form already. Probably all that BMW luxury!

Long live the petrol powered sports car. But realistically, probably not that long.

Isn't that the Canadian birth ritual?

Th e supra I s definitely not disappointing in terms of performance. I wish they invented their own interior though. It still looks like a preproduction.
