2020 Supra tear down
Slightly breathless after watching that, but fascinating, nevertheless. Some good-looking standard components that I assume are shared with the G29 (e.g. all-aluminium front subframe).
Also, the paint strippers looks like a proper Brick Top operation...
2008 Z4MC: heavy wheels | crap suspension | skittish rear end | wobbly engine | not enough induction noise | underwhelming turn in | inconsistent braking | lardy battery | chubby steering wheel
2006 Z4 2.5si: gone

I worked for Toyota for a while at Derby many moons ago so nothing new there personally but a good vid nonetheless. It’ll be interesting to see what they come up with for the track.

Nothing new, really? Would have thought that car architecture and packaging would have changed quite a bit.

Of course yes things move on, the alu subframe for eg, but really if you see a car manufactured from a flat sheet of steel to a running finished product in 24 hrs the processes and how they’re put together don’t vary very much.
