GranTurismoEra Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Looks like the LC500 at the back. That fog light and rear diffuser looks familiar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The £50k+ price tag means I won't be looking for a while until they come down in price. Ill be happy to see one or two forum members with this car and the Z4 M equivalent. Be good to see the differences in the real world. Not just a journalist opinion. Probably looking at 12 to 36 months after release for the price to drop. Depends on the market really. That being generous. 5 year warranty should be standard for both I reckon. But BMW have advantage of maintenance pack for tires and pads etc. Not sure if they offer that on performance vehicles though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un1eash Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Bmw won't offer a 5 year warranty and service packs are not worth it these days unless you do big mileage. Bmw service pack is 3 years/36k miles, with service intervals every 2 years/18k miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargara Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 I think the pricing will be the downfall. I suspect there will be a gentleman's agreement with BMW that they don't undercut each other which will work in BMW's favour as they can charge that sort of money for a 2 seater and have the badge and finance clout to back it up (its going to depend on pcm figures list price is largely irrelevant). We'll have to wait and see if the Supra nostalgia can carry this into the £50k+ range or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Although the original supra with inflation is in that ball park. But I think the world has changed people demand image over anything now and BMW over Toyota always wins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 £40k in 1993 is roughly £77k now, so way below inflation. Good to see a decent platform from the Japanese manufacturers though, albeit in conjunction with BMW, i doubt there are many of us on here that bought our 350's or 370z new, but a few years down the line, a sensible jdm choice for us for a change and you know it will be massively tuneable I have never bought a new car and probably never will, i just couldnt stomach the loss and if i had £50k burning a hole in my pocket, you can buy one hell of a 2nd car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranTurismoEra Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Mostly ex demo or 1 owner im sure. The initial £10-£15,000 hit is a lot. Then people end up selling after 1000-5000 miles. A lot of money to lose to find circumstances have changed, you dont like the car anymore or its numerous faults annoy you. By the time the price drops there will be other jdm options Im sure. If interest bombs those 300 would probably be the last for 2019 until they can fill their excel sheets with enough numbers to justify further uk production before allocating more. I can see a some dealers buying them and marking them up as 1 of 300..... Seems like a demand based production. Which makes sense with the current market.

AMT Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Still looks a bit short and stubby but I'll reserve until I see proper mag shots and videos of it, can't be far away now lol. Leak central with this thing.... The interior is probably going to be the worst bit. The outside at least is a bit crazy but the inside just screams bogo modern BMW, no flare, which is a real shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRF4N Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 The only other car car I remember having this much hype over years was the new nsx- for me that looks stunning. This I’m not sure of Having said that I read an article on these pics and they might be renders not official pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
un1eash Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 (edited) Rear quarter doesn't look right to me, I can see GT86 styling in it though. The hype for me is a quality cabin and that engine, interior quality on Toyota's are just so far behind the Germans.

My guess is this design won't age well at all. overly complicated. Hate to say it but the new z4 looks better. Of the new cars coming out the Audi E-tron looks elegant, futuristic and despite not being sexy is not offending to the eye (or mine at least ha!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GranTurismoEra Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 Im glad the Japanese dont stick to conventional design tbh. Lets see some outside the box stuff. Hopefully more stuff comes out pushing boundaries. Even though they changed it a lot from ft-1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
