Sure... unique, with a BMW engine, a BMW steering wheel, BMW dashboard, BMW iDrive, BMW seats, BMW chassis. Just because it has Toyota badges doesn't make it a Toyota.

You can change a few things.. but its like saying the BRZ is different than the GT86. It has a different front end and slightly different spring rates. Otherwise it is the same car and comes from the same factory.

I'm not doubting the car... it may be very nice. But as I said, not enough to differentiate it from the Z4. A few badges and tweaked suspension doesn't make it a Toyota.

A iconic Japanese sports car now made in Europe with nearly 100% BMW parts... Sad day for Toyota.
