Hey Alex, I've been led to believe that Toyota supplied more than just cash to BMW, but provided direct input on how the vehicles should be designed including the wheelbase to track ratio, suspension tuning and various other drivetrain elements that were essential to be there in order to provide the underpinnings essential for the Supra. In other words, it was truly a joint platform develop effort with Toyota tuning of BMW parts and components. Can you find out if this is true?

718 boxster for me, dunno why the hardtops were in the comparison segment, the supra should be a GTA and march larger and comfortable. the z4 lacks preciseness besides the headlights being on top of each other. the audi TT RS convertibale would be nice but sincei its the TT why buy that over a civic type r? c43 is not a convertible and i would go with bmw over that. the artist fromably known as the clk is stil in need of an update.

My issue with the Z4 Supra combo is that it just seems like an excuse for both companies not to invest in a vehicle. Toyota is the number one car company in the world (they trade #2 with Volkswagen) yet they couldn't bother to create the vehicle themselves? Heck GM is like 4th and they put more effort into the C8 Corvette by themselves.

People cant help but Cry, and complain. When I was told why the marriage of Toyota and BMW I understood and figured we are lucky because the day is coming that Roadsters will be only a RICH PERSONS thing as there is such a tiny market and dont make financial sense. Grab your MX-5 Miatas now while you can

Yeah, you Californians can go topless with no regrets. Here in the Pacific Northwest you face a major penalty for that choice. Of the choices you laid out, it would be the Audi TT for me. But I'd be just as happy with a Golf R with room for my wife, daughter, and big dog. :)

I, also, do not understand the flummox that so many folks have with the BMW/Toyota collaboration. As far as I'm concerned, it's a win-win for both companies. I love this Z4 and am equally impressed with the Supra.

I got to drive one of these and really, really love it, but it's hard to justify spending so much money for a car like this when you could almost get two Miatas for the same price.

What did Toyota do to the styling of the Supra? I think Toyota should just get out of the coupe business, they're all ugly going back to the 1980s.
