The Z interior on par with Supra?

This BMW quality for you

Sat in both Supra and Z in the NY auto show. I was expecting a nice BMW interior on the Supra but it turned out to be mediocre with a very dated look.

That's in part because a lot of it came from BMW's last gen parts bin. I think the only thing unique to the car is the gauge cluster designed by Toyota which somehow looks worst than the Z4 imo.

Right, but for 10-15k less than the equivalent BMW counterpart some corners had to be cut lol.

I'm shocked that they let him take delivery in that condition.

@rvlbrs if you don't mind me asking, how tall are you? You're one of the few (from what I've seen/can tell) who's had the chance to sit in the car to-date. Have been curious how it is for bigger guys like myself—seems like there's a decent amount of room, but always helpful to have more perspectives.

I'm 6'3" about 250 lbs. I fit in the Supra fine with correct seating adjustment. Getting into the Z was a cake walk. Definitely more real estate in the seating department.

Awesome, as someone also tall (6'6", 210) very happy to hear it! Thanks for the video as well.

Oh yeah, you'll be just fine! You got the weight advantage too

6'1 here, the Supra made me feel very claustrophobic

Same. 6'2 here and had no legroom in the Supra. I had pretty much decided agaisnt it when I saw it in person because I didn't like the looks.

^ 2-seaters tend to do that, unless they're open-top. Maybe you should try a 2+2 like the Toyota 86 / Subaru BRZ - the back seat space, although virtually useless as seats, do mean it feels roomier.

I felt that at 5'11". Pillbox windows didn't help.

6ft, no issues with the Supra. I probably have a couple of inches above my head and I have my drivers seat quite a bit forward too.

Never understood the big visibility gripes. I have no issues with visibility around the car except if its pointing downwards due to road slop and I'm at a light.
