New Supra on Real OEM but not the new zed

Well if any further proof was needed the new Supra is in fact a BMW, its appeared on Real OEM. Strangely though the new Zed hasn't turned up on there yet. Bizarre!

I can't wait til the supra drops into the sub 10k zone and i can snap one up :)
Got the feeling it'll depreciate like a brick, a german disguised as a jap won't get much love from the JDM fanboys

Both will divide opinion. That's why it will be interesting to see which devalues the most in the first couple of years

You’ll be waiting a long time for that if it ever gets that low. Only 900 cars are allocated for Europe this year so it’s not like there’s going to be an over supply. I think it will sell for a premium in the first year and it looks so good!!!

The Z will more or less half, the Supra will depreciate far less, I actually think it will sell for a premium at first.

I guess that’s about 200 in the UK then (depreciation free motoring right there)...wonder how many Z4’s will be sold across 2019?

Will be very interesting to see the new Z4 parts book when it arrives and see how much is actually shared. Still a lot missing but the suspension components that are there seem unique to the Supra.
