The Z interior on par with Supra?

[2017370ZBlack]

The Supra interior looks like any BMW interior with nothing unique at all

^ A lot of the Supra's engine is made with bits and pieces from the BMW parts bin as well. Watch this video at around the 2min mark ...

​

As the video says at one point, that happens in a lot of cars - Aston Martin uses a lot of Mercedes, Lamborghini uses a lot of Audi, etc. It's simply a cost-saving measure, and theoretically should make parts easier to get (at least while the car is relatively new) because there are more models using the same parts.

MotorTrend says the Supra has leather (e.g. cowhide) upholstery which is quite rare for cars under S75-100K these days. Most non-luxury cars have vinyl-based (i.e. synthetic) seats with a bit of leather--where it's perforated.

Nissan Z likely to have vinyl-based upholstery.

The base Supra has a leather interior where the base Z model will get cloth. No matter, the inclusion of a manual option will make the Z the best choice.

The base 3.0 Supra and the 2.0 have half leather seats. The centers are alcantara, which I actually like better than all leather. Its weird cause the CF edition and A91 edition also have the same half leather seats. Premium model is the only one that gets full leather.

Alcantara just like the 370.

The Supra definitely has better-looking seats than the Z -- with the exception of the Nismo, which will probably have Recaro seats when it's released.

Hate to pee in your cereal, but the Supra is getting a manual

Only because of the Z.

I got a chance to sit in it @ NYAS! It feels nice. More spacious than the supra in the seating department but hatch space is inferior to the Supra just off the strength of body design. I'd say what makes the Z appealing is the choice of suede(maybe alcantara?) in certain areas. That i think people would value over the mostly leather, soft plastic in the Supra. By default, the Supra feels more premium because of it's partial BMW nature but sitting in the Z kind of felt like a nice breathe of fresh air too. I made a youtube video about it if you want to get a actual look. (interior coverage starts @ 0:53)

I did like the interior materials. The overall design is pretty good in my opinion.

Smells good, but it's not great leather based on how mine is wearing.

Due to long ass doors, I rub against the edge of the drivers seat on almost every entry and it has caused a decent amount of wear through the leather. There is also a seam between your legs that is doing the same.

The Supra will likely have the better interior. It's all BMW materials in there, and even last gen BMW bits will likely be better than what Nissan comes up for this. People at the shows are saying they notice some heavy scratching already, and that center console looks like some of the cheapest, hardest plastic I've seen this side of a Plano tackle box. I believe even some others mentioned it that sat in it. I was able to look in person, but couldn't get and sit in it unfortunately. I hope it's good enough.

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. The Z, I was expecting a cheap interior because it is a Nissan. I was completely wrong. There were a few cheap-looking plastic trim pieces but the rest were really nice and have a good quality feel to them.

In b4 the Zupra boys call you a lying Nissan fanboy

@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.
