Toyota and BMW have just dried the ink on their sports car platform...

From Reuters:

“We have agreed on a joint architecture for a sports car. What is important is that there will be two different vehicles that are authentic to the two brands,” Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung today quoted [BMW's development chief Herbert] Diess as saying.

Frankfurter Allgemeine said that Diess declined to provide details on the models that would result from the cooperation.

Still not sure what it will be, some speculation has it being the next LFA and a corresponding supercar form BMW, but that seems unlikely in light of the i8. More likely its going to form the basis of a new Supra and Z4...

There has been rumors of one in the works. Hopefully this is it.
If it is that should mean they'll make a Lexus version like they did in the past.
