The “grill” still goes across the entire front. 

Never never mknd. This is the kind of useful information completely omitted from the video.

Never mind. It’s likely a GE.

I think it’s Toyota’s overcautious experiment back into sports cars. Since they haven’t had an internal benchmark in a long time, it’s hard for them to be confident on what will work. I imagine some of the more questionable styling elements is where they took the risk since that’s less costly than messing with the…

And there are ways to certify these things even  in CA.

But you don’t know for sure. That’s a pretty important detail. Also if it’s an earlier 2JZ-GE,  it may only need to meet early 90s emissions.

Which one is heavier?

Yes. But this “article” doesn’t state if the engine is a 2JZ-GE with a turbo conversion or a 2JZ-GTE.

Honestly a little active aero would be nice these days. High end sports cars are trying too hard with the passive aero.

That stands to be seen. At the modest ~12K units a year, it’s not a monumental challenge. Honestly, I think it will depend on how well it sells in Japan.

I think Toyota stated that they wanted to keep it an inline 6. I’m also assuming they didn’t want to take the extra engineering cost to integrate a Toyota engine into a BMW chassis and BMW electronics.

No Z4 can claim this level of noteriety.

Embrace it.

The VWs baby seat alright. They’re pretty “tall” compared to other compacts and the seats slot in reasonably nicely.

Ever put a rear facing car seat in a compact?

I wish 6 speeds would have a slightly taller 1st gear. The few I have driven were always too short.

Since May was not a pro Brexit person anyways, I’m starting to believe she deliberately fumbled this one. Curious to see how all this works out.

Relax. It’s a t-top. It’s hot garbage anyways.

There’s a lot of consultant work in the UK now. The UK did design cars for a long time you know. Also, when the whole EU started, the UK was the launch point for a lot of the Japanese factories. It’s more tied in that you realize.
