One of the reasons people buy these cars is due to the powertrain.

There is not going to be a Toyota engine transplant in a BMW. If you think the Supra/Z5 will illustrate such a choice? Z5 will only offer BMW four and six cylinder engines. Not the Supras V6. |
BMW will never do platform sharing
BMW will never do fwd
Sorry. We see right through you. Maybe it's not happening today or tomorrow. But you guys have already opened that door so wide open that you could drive a truck through it. Money speaks louder then principle (and ethics and morality it seems lately) over there so I'm sure when the time is right it will happen. And you will tell us how most customers don't even know what engine they have or some nonsense.
