what kind of gearbox is that 7 spd vs the 6 spd??

on top of that, if the Supra means what it says, it will be waxing the M3 also. I do like this new BMW however. I still want a supra!!

sequential M gearing... F1 style computer controlled gearbox with 7 forward gears ala Ferrari models. not the same lame paddle shift on the is350 and rx8...
performance wise its much superior to stickshift, but people still choose the old fanshioned 6mt for the sense of fun and control.

supra is one ugly mother...just my .02

looks like an aston martin in the front....that grille HAS to go...looks to be smiling a little too much. the rear screams s2k...

old supra was sexy and aggressive and masculine all at the same time...the new supra has too much curvature/feminine in it...just my opinion
