1. Again, a good engine is a good engine, that is not my beefs.

2. Gravydoo, did you just go into a small but detailed history of that people?
I mean, I get the "used sparingly to make the best" when it comes to the 2jz engines,
which were all in house Toyoda (and rumored help from Yamaha)

But none of that explains setting aside the things that make it interesting. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Note: I also like the Nissan RB series.
Yeah, let BMW do all the heavy lifting. Toyota will tune it up, make it sexy. It was developed WITH toyota. Wasnt just BMW said heres your engine take it or leave it.

What did they set aside? Its a decent car. Its not 300k. Its 40k. A corvette is 50k, 100 more horse power. You are getting what you paid for and thats a good thing. BMW engine or not. The spirit of it is toyota. You think they'd put a piece of shit in their flag ship car?? Hell nah. Its sort of a committee car, but if you aint pagani or konigsegg, they all are.

Yes, I did just go into a small history of japanese craftsmanship and manufacturing.
