340hp?

Is that all? My Sequoia has 387hp

ETA: Heck an Infiniti G37 has 330hp

This is the rumor due to the Z4 engine listing being leaked.

I am guessing they are still trying to make this an affordable sports coupe. I was hoping more for 400.

Got damn, they're not even trying. The MK4 twin turbo had 320hp. 20 years ago. Pass.

Well, it weighs quite a bit less than a truck. Also, the Supra wasn't a supercar. I'm not sure that's the angle of attack they were taking.

Lot off people dissing the rumored power output because of all the modded Supras running around.

This thing should have had at least 800hp and a 2JZ

It better have more than that. That’s only 36 more than the Civic Type R.

This is sharing the Engine specs of the new Z4. From digging deeper, some individuals in the know suggests there 2 variants that were not leaked.

The Z4 will not be an M car so this means more than likely the Supra will get the highest output spec.

The new X3/X4 share similar engine platforms (B58) but will have an M series...

Logic tells me to pay attention to that engine which is est 460hp...

Again im just hoping for 400.

edit: Damn BOX thats probably the funniest shite ive seen all day

Looks good, but just 340 HP? Hell, my Maxima gets 300 HP. They need to step it up.

I'd drag my truck nuts over its hood. 340 seems pretty weak

I know you baws are trolling but power to weight ratio might suggest otherwise.

Count me in on hoping for more than 340 though.

The Lexus RC F has 467hp so I would assume Toyota would keep it well below that to avoid canniblizing itself.

I believe that motor is a pure Yota motor.

This is a shared platform with BMW.

But I do agree with you. Just hoping for 400 lol.

That’s cool, thanks for the info.

I have a toddler so I’m just excited the new 2.0T, 252 HP accord will be offered with 3 pedals. A clutch is about all the enjoyment I’ll be able to extract from that grocery-getter.
