I fear it will not have Toyota’s reliability i.e reliable and not expensive to maintain or needing lots of maintenance ..but be much more like a BMW reliable but high maintenance and expensive therein.
but this, so much this. The 2jz was a ridiculously tough, reliable powerplant with So. much. potential. A modern BMW powerplant is... not that. Sure, they can be tough (compared to other modern BMW engines). They can be reliable (compared to other modern BMW engines). But they're never going to be 2jz tough, or 2jz reliable.
The existence of the new Supra means we'll never get a turbocharged or more powerful FRS/86/BRZ - and for that, I am sad. If they released a 300ish hp 86, nobody would buy the new Supra, so they're definitely not going to cannibalize their "Halo" car.
