People will still pick the Supra even if the c8’s better and then justify their spend by complaining that the chevy’s elbows are too pointy.

Supra will sell to fanboys for a year or two and then flop.

My sister has an Camry GT. It's a really nice car and she saved up for over two years to get it. Why would you make fun of it? That just stinks! I think my sister and I are owed an apology. : (

A local videographer, competitive driver, track instructor, and all-around great guy I know just did a mini review and lap.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7CXtcIWwxs

The track is Toronto Motorsport Park in Cayuga, Ontario. 1:22 is not blisteringly fast, but it’s not bad, either. On street tires and otherwise bone stock. This one is owned by 11Tenths Racecraft, and is sure to get “breathed on” shortly.

Here's a mini review on the supra of someone who has driven a Z4 and giving a street driving review.
Its gonna be interesting to see this car evolve. Even if the corvette tears it a new a--hole.

Smoking tire on track is impressed with the Supra.
He said they had a lot of opportunities to mess it up and they didn't.

Default First driving comparo of Z4 and Supra.

https://youtu.be/wvE1GCXcOTs

Tuning wise... very different cars it seems.
Z4 more cruiser than sports car in its tuning.
Supra pure sports.

People keep talking about not being able to drive the Supra with the window open. For me. That alone is s deal breaker.
