I'm really worried this car won't live up to its name because it shares the same platform as some BMW. :|

That is an interesting one, isn't it?

BMW platforms belong to the best. So i would not worry too much about that. Toyota will do their own engine, bodywork and suspension settings. Maybe some of the suspension will be similar in a way to BMW, as the mounting points will be the same. But than again, beemers are known for their driving.

For purists it might be a hard thing to accept. But there have been more weird platform shares in the past. Like between Saab and Opel, Fiat and Ford (500/Ka) and probably a lot more.
For some reason development of the platform / base of a car is the most expensive part. Sharing resources is a clever way of reducing costs.

And i'm convinced the new Supra will live up to its expectations. :party:

Not everyone agrees with this. :whistle:

But it's not all about the driving. I have a distinct feeling the car will not be a looker, I'm hoping to be proven wrong in the end.
