Toyota Supra fights BMW Z4 at the Nurburgring (VIDEO)
The Toyota Supra GR sports car was paired with the BMW Z4 platform at the Nurburgring track to find out who is better.
The Japanese two-door auto was driven by a Sport Auto journalist, as was the German BMW Z4. The fifth generation of the revived Japanese car managed to drive the track at 7:52.17 min. The Bavarian model with a similar 340-horsepower V6 turbo produced 3.24 seconds worse results.
Supra and Z4 have a single architecture, as well as a power plant for 340 "horses" (6-cylinder turbocharged 3.0-liter unit).
