    Looks to be a better proposition than the new Supra. I dig it.
    Fully loaded Supra is still £4000 cheaper than Emira's base price in UK.

    But... But.. Lotus. I thought that has enough cache to justify the price tag.

    you're comparing a mid-engine lotus, with a bonded aluminum chassis and crazy handling (I predict) to a....Z4?

    AMG engine is the entry level 360hp one.
    How are they going to position this against the supercharged Toyota Camry engine that has more HP but less torque?

    I can’t imagine the Camry engine costs more than the AMG engine…

    I JUST came back to my office from picking up a delicious nanaimo bar and americano, pulled past a Supra on the way in and thought "Man, I just cannot get behind this over-styled ugly piece of shit.". haha

    You almost never see them and when you do, you wonder wtf they were thinking.

    I'll tell you what they were thinking:

    "We can't change BMW's hardpoints, but we need to make it look different and we are too cheap to build our own."

    I saw a supra that had some sort of ridiculous rocket bunny or liberty walk widebody kit on it, among a heap of other mods. It actually looked better than stock, and I feel like that's saying a lot.

    Literally every generation of Supra was nicer than this abortion. So disappointing.

    That's almost a selling point. Nobody got them.

    I like the Supra. I think it looks much better in person and it's an attention magnet (if you like that). I like the looks of this more of course but I'm not sure what's a scarier proposition; owning a Lotus or an Alfa.

    I too like the Supra. I saw one with a classic Supra spoiler and it surprisingly fit pretty well.

    You have to come to peace with the fact that the Japanese sometimes go over the top with styling or miss out on great cars like the Civic Type R and Supra. I would get one but they are strictly summer cars. Not enough ground clearance for winter driving as C&D had issues winter driving their long term Supra. Kind of shocking they could get 35 mpg on the highway given the performance of the car.
