paul2supra Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Stuck a deposit down this afternoon and will be picking up as soon as I can get to the bank for the balance! Isn't she curiously sexy...despite being ever so slightly ugly??! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul2supra Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 Well, ONE other person with taste Yeah, me too - since they came out years ago. Loved the fact that such a mainstream manufacturer balked tradition and built something so unsual. Prices are now achievable so had to give them a go. Not as brutal feeling, acceleration wise, as the Supra, and certainly more compliant than mine around our roads. On paper though, a match for any standard TT. Nice steering feel and rapid progress can be made quite easily. No driver aids except ABS though, so can be a handful apparently - yet to experience that of course, as I've only been on test drives so far.

paul2supra Posted May 8, 2009 Author Share Posted May 8, 2009 I like that Sorry, make that 2 then - thanks!! Despite the recent price drops, it certainly wasn't CHEAP and admittedly I could have bought a nice TT6 for the same money but, as I've had 3 Supras now, a change is as good as a rest! Styling still attracts attention too - though clearly not all for the right reasons as the mixed responses on here amply demonstrate!!

RiceRocket Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Isn't she curiously sexy?! Err no but it's for me. Only ever seen just one of these OTR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozz Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I think they are stunning, remind me of the old Scimitar which I had a soft spot for. I've been eyeing up 6 series BMs recently, would love to go back to BMW but not a good time to be spending out on motors (for me anyway!).

hadyn Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 They are ugly but they are quick arent they? Same kind of performance as a stock TT supra? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul2supra Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 I've been eyeing up 6 series BMs recently, would love to go back to BMW but not a good time to be spending out on motors (for me anyway!). Funny you mention the 6s, I missed out on an old 80s M6 - gutted, as it had only 66k on the clock, FBMWSH and the only other wording on the ad was "immaculate, I repeat immaculate" which I thought was a brilliantly confident, short but to the point ad. This is my first BMW - always had the Jap stuff previously. Haydn - 0-60 seems to be 5 to 5.5 depending on source material so yes, comparable. Didn't feel as brutal as my Supra, but different power delivery of course. Yet to suss the gear changes too, so I think my own runs will be somewhat short of those times!

Jake Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 I like it. Good cars too, from what I've read. Some things are so ugly they have a certain charm and cuteness. Rob Sheffield, for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
