Opinions?
Although I'm not sure about some of the styling cues (the wheels, the rear lights), it doesn't look bad. Boxer engine should sound good and it should be good fun.
But £25k-£28k is steep money...can buy a 2yr old Z4M for that. Nissan 370z has more power and is cheaper. Who's going to buy a new one for that money?

Its a Toyota so I can say with a fair degree of certainty that I will never want to own one.Motorhole wrote: Opinions?
Just looks like another standard issue rice-turd.
Sure the fast & furryarse differs will love it

e30topless said : Proper BMW's have 4 headlights, last of the run was the E30 and E34/E32 anything after that is just complete shite
at £20k it would tempt a lot of people away from new hot hatches, but at £25k plus its just too expensive for the performance.
i'm sure it handles very nicely, but they've only made it 'fun' by putting overly skinny wheels / tyres on which look a bit odd.
whilst i appreciate them having the balls to concentrate on the driving and not just grip and performance, if i want old school driving thrills, i'll either buy something oldschool, or something properly focused. i.e e30 m3 or lotus elise.
there are plenty of photos around of them on bigger / wider wheels and they look loads better, but then you're going to mess up the handling and just be left with something slow.
