^^^^Ford is whittling down it's line. As far as cars are concerned only the Mustang and Focus Active will remain. Their trucks, SUVs and crossovers will all remaIn in the lineup.

Closed deck, and other sources have revealed forged crank, pistons, and rods. Looks to be built very well.

Supra has put down some great numbers lately, 11.4 just downpipes and a tune. 10.7 with added slicks. That’s faster than any ISF/RCF even with SC.

The tuneability is impressive, definitely helps with the ECU not being locked down like Toyota one's usually are.

10s with just downpipe, tune, slicks? Wow. Yeah that’s on another level than the ISF. I have seen that they punch way above their weight on road courses. The chassis is apparently next level for racing. I hated this car until now. It looks legit. I just wonder how the ECUs and electronics will age. That is normally what goes wrong in German cars. Thoughts?

Supposedly Toyota analyzed every nut and bolt to make sure it's up to Toyota standards, now whether or not that extended to the ECU and electronics nobody knows how in depth Toyota had access to that R&D or even if BMW allowed them that access....only time will tell

The speed doesn't surprise me at all, any BMW now a days with a tune and downpipe and some slicks seem to put down pretty good 1/4 times because of forced induction being so mod friendly with their motors.

Nice car though, it definitely has grown on me.
