I’m not a big bmw Supra fan, but I will say I like the Supra more so far, and I’m a big Nissan z car guy. Sad, but I’m glad they at least built it. 2 door sports cars that are sub 100k are going the way of the dodo bird.
Nissan is so retarded, if they’d spent the cash to release this in say 2016or so, with $$ being essentially free back then with extremely low interest rates and soaring economy, they would’ve sold out all of them. Instead, they dicked around for a decade and timed the economy perfectly just like in 2009. I think we can thank good ol Carlos Gohen for that one, le cost cutter was to busy lining his pockets.

Looks-wise, I think the new Supra is a sharp-looking car. Performance-wise, different story in the sense that it's a bmw and shared platform with the z4. Really makes me wonder why Toyota would partner out for an iconic car.
The new Z, different strokes for different folks, and I just can't bring myself to liking it, even a bit. It seems like Nissan was in a rush to bring a new product to the table to keep up with competition and just half-@$$ed the whole thing.
I will give Carlos credit on reviving the GTR.
