Hmmm. I did read before it would be a soft top and a coupe. Looks to have nice proportions, well what you can make out anyway.

Brake lights look a bit too wannabe Ferrari for me in those pics

They're not the real ones, just to suit the bodywork.

That's got the looks of a potentially very good looking motor, bring it on!

Seems sensible to go back to a soft top, bring the price point back down and get more sales?

It says in the text that it's on Munich-registered plates and the clocks are the same as the next-gen 5 series, they say it isn't a Toyota.

Looks like a backwards step.
The E86 looks a better shape and this just looks like a copy of that and a 350Z as already said.
Doesnt look very exciting, I know the paintwork hides a lot but the GT86 looks better too.

I think it could be great. I really hope that this is the BMW, but i reckon its the Toyota. Clocks are just in a mule car, the Toyota interior just probably doesn't exist yet.
Why is it that people who can't take advice always insist on giving it?
