Again I know there's more to an engine than a few 0-60 pulls but still. The M engine was defeated.
What's more bizarre is you judge a car by its 0-60 pull...

Please show me when the M2C was beaten by the Supra? Please don't quote on those time attacks from track wannabes.

The M2C has traction issue off the line because it is under-tyred.

Drive the M2C and then the Supra and you know how much more enjoyable the M2C is. The S55 revs faster and harder to redline, not to mention the redline is 7500 instead of 7000 on the B58

Dig into some of the reviews here

The whole comparison thing is moot to me anyway from a buyer's perspective since the Supra doesn't even offer a manual gearbox.
