I’m holding out for the Camary GT. $27,000 out the door...

Wait a couple months and buy a C8.

Between those 2. I didnt say out of all the sports cars in the world!!! Wtf is wrong with you? You have the attention span of a peanut.

Let me ask you a question.... you bought your Z new or used?

The Supra legit stomps a mudhole in the Z4 at least in acceleration.

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.

The buffeting is a huge deal breaker from me. I drive with my windows down 90% of the time.

Wow. 12.5@109.
That's just special. They have attained slightly better than 1998 Fbody acceleration, lol!

In fairness. It isn’t meant to be a drag car.

Sorry. I seldom follow external links from a forum.
Why don’t you embed things?
