Because it's a BMW, right?

(couldn't resist, I'm sorry)



There's just too much that can go wrong with this particular car. I drove it home from Charlotte but other than that I've only taken it out of state once. Other people drive them across the country and I think they're crazy ?

The Supra has a lot of trunk space. It’s so much deeper than the Z. I can fit a baby high chair in the back. The Supra has 10.2 cubic ft while the 370z has 6.9 cubic foot. Not even close. Check your facts before your fanboy logic does.

edit: added the decimals for extra clarity.
I said opening. We all know it has a deep trunk like with its predecessor the E86.

I'm on the fence, but I flip-flop all of the time... :confused:
Well, I love the way the Supra looks. It gets attention all the time. There is nothing aesthetically stimulating like the Supra at the price point. The Z looks to tame for me. Again, looks are subjective. Performance wise, the Supra is a great handling car with huge power potential.

A weekly grocery run, and a 32 truck tire transport (barely fit, needed to air tire down) in my BRZ trunk. Fortunately the back seat provides additional room.

Hoping to make due with the Nissan Z hatch area, and additional area just behind the seats. Looking forward to seeing the Z in person, at the Chicago Auto Show later this month!

Yabutz, with all that weight in the trunk, it probably adds a second or two to the 0-60 of that car!

The Z is probably the least, or one of the least practical cars you can buy today.

Even though my Q60 has a tiny trunk, it shares the sedan wheel base and is quite roomy in the back seats. With the Z, no back seats and the strut bar thingy really gets in the way too.

Yeah I gotta say, kinda annoying how a car otherwise perfect for me has this Achilles' heel. I wish they extended it further back since they added length to the Z, but I guess I'll have to get creative.

I saw a video where they fit a 3 piece luggage set into the 370Z, so it can't be too bad, right?

For sure subjective because I think the Supra is ugly…too over the top, too many curves, too many fake bits
I may look at one when it’s driving by, but not for the right reasons.

not being nasty…that’s my honest opinion

I wasn't joking when I said there's not much room. ? Trust me when I tell you people this car is not for long road trips or vacations. Far from practical and if you're a family person I'd suggest having another daily driver.
