Indbegrebet af Jaguar Hvilken model fortæller præcist, hvad Jaguar er og står for?For at finde det rigtige svar, er fire bilsnobber sat gået I studiet, hvor de står på mål for at netop deres model er indbegrebet af Jaguar:Nils Hartmann, der, selv om han syv gange har taget tilløb til at købe en E-type, aldrig har ejet en Jaguar. Da han imidlertid ejer en restomoddet MGB GT, en Daytona Cobra og en Mercedes med åndenød på siden er han selvfølgelig selvskreven som denne udgaves fagdommer. Mikkel Skourup Brodin, der som altid er podcastens venlige element, har faktisk arbejdet for Jaguar i næsten et helt år. Og selv om det er længe siden og derudover vist havde noget med flådesalg at gøre, så bærer Mikkel måske lidt af skylden for mærkets deroute?Adam Estrup, podcastens resident ældreborger, der næsten var med, da (Sir) William Lyons markedsførte Swallow Sidecar Company – Jaguars oprindelse – i 1922. Insisterer på at have haft en Jaguar, selv om lødigheden af modellen anfægtes.Stefan Kaas, podcastens vært, har ejet ikke mindre end ni Jaguarer, inklusive en nyligt anskaffet F-Type, komplet med falske pop, bangs & burbles fra udstødningen. Hvilket jo teknisk set, forleder han sig selv til at mene, måske i virkeligheden gør ham til en slags overfagdommer.Lyt med og find ud af, hvilken bilsnobs model, der vinder. Og lad os høre hvad dit bud på den bedste Jaguar er? Husk også farvekombinationen. Den er vigtig (for nogen, red. (For alle, Über red.))Og igen en stor tak til Bjørn, John og Andrew for at lade os låne deres ord, fra deres meget anbefalelsesværdige podcast om musik, Indbegrebet Af!.
https://browncarguy.com/2024/11/22/jaguar-just-lost-the-plot/ Jaguar stops sales of new cars, and radically rebrands leaving car fans distressed and disturbed. What's going on? Jaguar has stunned the automotive world - and not in a good way!
Welcome to Episode 42! This week, Imran shares his thoughts on two hybrids he drove recently: the 2024 Dodge Hornet R/T PHEV, and the 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid. One is far too expensive for its own good, and the other is arguably the sweet spot of the lineup. Care to guess which is which? Plus, Rush is soaking up the sun this week with the 2024 Jaguar F-Type P575 convertible. Cats really do have nine lives, because Jaguar keeps saying this'll be the "last" F-Type on the local press fleet, but we ain't complaining. A loud V8 and a roof that disappears at the touch of a button is always a recipe for a good time. As for Nathan ... oh yeah, he couldn't make it this week. So, Adi popped in to try and make sense of Nick's recent obsession with Lexus IS Fs. Is jumping from an E39 M5 to an IS F as a daily driver a downgrade? Enjoy the show?

Tesla-baas Elon Musk kondigt de komst van drie nieuwe modellen aan. Om welke modellen het precies gaat, is niet duidelijk. Op de afbeelding, die getoond werd tijdens de aandeelhoudersvergadering, zijn de auto's afgedekt met een doek. Er wordt al langer gespeculeerd over de komst van een compacte auto die 25.000 dollar zou moeten kosten, maar Musk zegt daar niks over tijdens zijn presentatie. Bekijk de vergadering hier. Verder in de auto-update: Duitsland komt in actie tegen de hogere importtarieven voor Chinese EV's. Nio brengt de EL8, zijn grootste elektrische SUV, ook in Europa op de markt. Jaguar neemt nu definitief afscheid van de F-Type.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Jaguar, una marca sinónimo de coches lujosos y deportivos. Tiene una historia fascinante, modelos icónicos, éxitos en competición, modelos actuales muy sugerentes… pero sus ventas están en “caída libre”. Todo esto te lo contamos en este vídeo… somos muy ambiciosos, pero sabes que cumplimos lo que prometemos. Sir William Lyon creó una marca llamada Swallow Sidecar Company cuyo nombre evolucionó a SS Cars… uno de sus modelos fue el SS Jaguar. Pero tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial las iniciales SS estaban mal vistas y rebautizaron la marca como Jaguar, concretamente Jaguar Cars Limited… todo un acierto… Tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial hubo una reactivación de la demanda y a finales de los años 40 comienza el auge de Jaguar a base de modelos notables y éxitos en competición. Este modelo no dejó de mejorar y evolucionar hasta llegar a su tope, en 1957, cuando aparece el XK150 que tenía muchas mejoras, entre ellas un motor potenciado pero, sobre todo, los frenos de disco en la que Jaguar fue pionera y que le permitió, entre otras cosas, vencer las 24 Horas de Le Mans. Pero sin duda hubo un modelo que proyecto la fama de Jaguar a lo más alto, un coche del que el mismo Enzo Ferrari dijo que era “el automóvil más bello jamás fabricado”. Nadie duda de que hablo del Jaguar E. Aparecido en 1961 el coche era bonito a rabiar… y sigue siéndolo. Pero el Jaguar E, el diseño estrella de Malcolm Sayer, además de muy bonito, potente y rápido, era barato. Sí, barato. Para que os hagáis una idea, en los USA, este coche, con un nivel de prestaciones similar o superior al 911 o al Ferrari 250 GTE, costaba entre un 40 y un ¡60 por ciento menos! Pero no solo de deportivos vive el hombre… ni el aficionado. En 1968 el “JEFE”, Sir William Lyon quiere poner orden en su gama de berlinas formada por diversos modelos. Por un lado, el precioso Jaguar MK2 y el S Type estéticamente muy parecidos entre sí y muy bonitos. Por otro, el 420 y el MKX, también similares entre sí. Y lanza el XJ6. Este modelo llevó motores de 6 cilindros en línea, V8 y V12 y era permanentemente puesto al día. Pero a Jaguar la llegada de la electrónica ni le hizo bien. Primero, porque los suministradores de electrónica británicos parecían pagados por el enemigo. Jaguar había perdido su independencia económica cuando se integró en el desastroso grupo BMC a mediados de los 60 que aglutinaba a una gran cantidad, casi todas, las empresas británicas del automóvil. Fue un desastre. Jaguar recupera su independencia brevemente a comienzos de los 80, se nombra presidente a Sir John Egan y los coches ganan en calidad… pero se pierde “paz social”, hay despidos, ajustes y problemas de todo tipo. Así que la oferta de compra por parte de Ford vino como llovida del cielo. No se puede querer todo, así que se gana esa “paz social” pero llegan no sé si los peores Jaguar de la historia, pero sí al menos los Jaguar menos Jaguar. Sea como fuere, Ford decidió desprenderse de Jaguar, lo que no resultaba fácil, hasta que la empresa India Tata Motors decide comprar la compañía. Parecía que llegaba otra época de auge con la llegada de los nuevos XE, XF, el precioso F Type y los SUV Pace, que personalmente no me gustan, pero que hoy día parecen necesarios si quieres que tu marca funcione. Pero… llega la caída en forma de problemas de fiabilidad, graves problemas de fiabilidad y un vertiginoso descenso de las ventas. Os voy a dar un dato sobre las ventas de la marca en España: En 2018, Jaguar vendió en España 4.394 unidades, que teniendo en cuenta la marca que es. Super Premium, y su precio no está mal. En el último año completo, el 2023, la venta fue de… ¡601 unidades! ¿Los motivos? Sin duda el principal, la baja calidad y los problemas de fiabilidad. Luego está la falta de modelos realmente nuevos y novedosos… que no es lo mismo.

The guys have returned from their short hiatus to give you even more great content and car conversations. This weeks episode starts off following Benjamin's recent drive of the 2024 Jaguar F-Type R 75, a celebration of the British automaker's great history of sports cars. Benjamin takes a cruise down Memory Ln. to talk about the F-Type and its impact on the brand, as well as how the rest of the sports car world looked when it first debuted compared to where we are now. Plus we get some more insight into his personal, (or is that questionable?) automotive tastes. Then Sami, noted Outback enthusiast and serial owner, talks about the 2024 Subaru Outback Onyx Edition, which he isn't recommending to new car shoppers. He lists why, and the guys go on their own journey to find acceptable Outback alternatives. Finally the pair discuss some news from Ford about the brand cutting a much loved/maligned feature from their future cars.

A few months ago, I did an episode called “What's Your F Type?” that you all LOVED. We have been getting a lot of questions about those tools, so I've decided to do a LIVE training on them inside our free FB group next week (link below to join). Here is an encore, so you can come prepared with your own questions for our live session! Enjoy and see you soon!----------------------------------------------------How do you react when someone cuts you up in traffic?It's annoying, right?! What about when someone ignores you or roll their eyes at something you said?How do you respond when somebody hurts your feelings or rejects your ideas?The way you respond when you get poked or triggered is called your “F” type. And knowing your “F” type is a kind of awareness that can be life-changing.In this episode, I'm diving deeper into what triggers are, why they elicit a reaction from you, and the four types of reactions you can have to a trigger so you can learn how to deal with them more effectively.When you discover which “F” type you fall into most commonly, you can start shifting the way you show up in the world.As I said, it's life-changing.So listen closely, take notes, and bring your questions to our LIVE training inside our free FB group next week!

It would appear that a lot of things are getting canned this week, we talk about the demise of Top Gear, the end of the F-Type and the binning of the Up! We've also tackled some housekeeping for our upcoming episodes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
The Jaguar F-Type is unquestionably one of the most exciting cars to leave Jaguar's workshop in decades. Maybe dwarfed by the absurd XJ220, the F-Type took inspiration from legendary two-seat Jaguars of yore and brought them into the modern age. Debuting in 2013, Jaguar's F-Type has had a solid decade in the company's lineup. Making the F-Type even more interesting, Jaguar made it home to its absurd, supercharged V8. While the F-Type was interesting, and recently saw a styling refresh, it's going offline after 2024. Celebrating the F-Type, Jaguar gave this model a special 75th-anniversary package dubbed R 75. Formally named the 2024 Jaguar F-Type P575 R 75, you can rightfully decode that this Jag packs the potent 575 hp version of its supercharged V8 under the hood. That power travels through an eight-speed automatic to a four-wheel drive system. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek executive editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of the '24 Jaguar F-Type P575 R 75 and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of this F-Type and highlights some of his favorite features. Murphy later takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about this snarling Jaguar. The pair talk about the F-Type's run, the car's inspiration, and how it sits in the market amid shrinking competition. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes this Jaguar special.
The following is an interview we conducted with Katka and Hazel, who both live in the UK and were recently back from Bakur, the portion of Kurdistan within the borders of Turkey. For 2 hours the guests speak about the political violence from Erdogan's ruling AKP, suppression of the Kurdish movement, electoral strategies, democratic confederalism, political prisoners and the F-Type prisons in Turkey, the earthquakes from earlier in the year, widespread corruption and other topics. We hope you enjoy this conversation,. A transcript of this interview will be available in the near future.

Der F-Type ist für viele Fans DER Jaguar der Neuzeit. Seit mittlerweile zehn Jahren ist der Sportwagen so etwas wie das Aushängeschild der Briten. Aber sein Ende naht! Die Produktion des F-Type wird eingestellt, denn ab 2025 will Jaguar nur noch Elektroautos bauen. Grund genug, dass wir uns den Sportwagen noch mal genauer anschauen. Was wir schon verraten können: Der V8-Kompressor ist ein Wahnsinns-Aggregat, doch in einem Punkt hat uns der F-Type echt enttäuscht. Welcher das ist und wie unser Fazit zum Oldschool-Briten ausfällt, das hört ihr in der neuesten Folge von "Erst fahren, dann reden".
The weather is warming up and that means its time to talk about some fun summer cars and topics! If you're asking "What does that mean?" then consider this week's episode as a primer. First up, Benjamin revisits the 2023 Toyota GR Supra, but this time its equipped with a six-speed manual transmission. After a lukewarm reception a few years ago, Benjamin finds out if the three-pedalled variant changes things for the better, and whether the Supra is in a precarious position due to its pricing and performance. Then Sami chimes in with some sports-car stories of his own, describing his time in the 2024 Jaguar F-Type 75. A celebration of Jaguar's coupe and convertible, this model boasts plenty of power, but carries around the British brands legacy. Our hosts talk about what that means, and how the brand will continue without a two-door in the road map. Then Benjamin has some news to share about his Grand Wagoneer. Having used it as a tow vehicle for his Datsun, he experiences the ups and downs of using an older vehicle for heavy-duty work. Be sure to visit the website, send us your comments, and check out Benjamin's kickstarter for his cool new book!

Jaguar famously leaned into their bad-boy reputation with the "Good to be Bad" advertising campaign featuring famous British movie villains shilling for the new F-Type. So is the F-Type a car only fit for a sociopath, or can you enjoy one too? And which is the best one for the professional race car driver? That's this week on Best in Class.

Fundamental effective temperature measurements for eclipsing binary stars -- II The detached F-type eclipsing binary CPD-54 810 by N. J. Miller et al. on Thursday 13 October CPD-54 810 is a double-lined detached eclipsing binary containing two mid-F type dwarfs on an eccentric 26-day orbit. We perform a combined analysis of the extensive photometry obtained by the TESS space mission along with previously published observations to obtain a full orbital and physical solution for the system. We measure the following model-independent masses and radii: M1 = 1.3094+/-0.0051 Msun, M2 = 1.0896+/-0.0034 Msun, R1 = 1.9288+/-0.0030 Rsun, and R2 = 1.1815+/-0.0037 Rsun. We employ a Bayesian approach to obtain the bolometric flux for both stars from observed magnitudes, colours, and flux ratios. These bolometric fluxes combined with the stars' angular diameters (from R1, R2 and the parallax from Gaia EDR3) lead directly to the stars' effective temperatures: Teff,1 = 6462+/-43 K, and Teff,2 = 6331+/-43 K, with an additional systematic error of 0.8% (13 K) from the uncertainty in the zero-point of the flux scale. Our results are robust against the choice of model spectra and other details of the analysis. CPD-54 810 is an ideal benchmark system that can be used to test stellar parameters measured by large spectroscopic surveys or derived from asteroseismology, and calibrate stellar models by providing robust constraints on the measured parameters. The methods presented here can be applied to many other detached eclipsing binary systems to build a catalogue of well-measured benchmark stars. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2210.06325v1

Thema heute: Jaguar präsentiert das Jubiläumsmodell zu seinem 75-Jährigen Sportwagen-Jubiläum Foto: Jaguar Land Rover Deutschland GmbH Der Jaguar F-TYPE blickt als ultimativer Jaguar Sportwagen auf eine 75 Jahre lange Tradition zurück, die 1948 auf der London Motor Show mit der Weltpremiere des Jaguar XK120 ihren Anfang nahm. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten brachte Jaguar mit den weiteren Generationen des XK und dem legendären E-Type einige der ikonischsten Sportwagen aller Zeiten heraus. Foto: Jaguar Land Rover Deutschland GmbH Als Coupé oder Cabriolet kombiniert der Jaguar F-TYPE eine perfekte Symbiose aus Leistung und Fahrspaß, muskulösem, selbstbewusstem Design und einem von luxuriösen Materialien, anspruchsvoller Handwerkskunst und exquisiten Details geprägten Interieur. Für das neue Modelljahr, das Anfang 2023 auf den Markt kommt, werden vier Modellvarianten erhältlich sein. An der Spitze des neuen Portfolios stehen die neuen Sondereditionen F-TYPE 75 (mit Hinterrad- oder Allradantrieb) und F-TYPE R 75 (mit Allradantrieb). Sie zeichnen sich durch einzigartige Interieur- und Exterieur-Design-Elemente aus und – natürlich – den sinnbildlich für den F-TYPE stehenden, 5,0-Liter-V8-Motor mit 331 kW (450 PS) oder 423 kW (575 PS). Die exklusiven Modelle sind eine würdige Hommage an die Performance der Jaguar Sportwagen der vergangenen 75 Jahre. Foto: Jaguar Land Rover Deutschland GmbH Der Jaguar F-TYPE des Modelljahrgangs 2024 sieht so dramatisch aus wie eh und. Zugleich weist die generelle Präsenz auf die fließenden Formen des reichen Sportwagenerbes von Jaguar hin, das 1948 mit dem damals schnellsten Serienwagen der Welt, dem XK120, begann. Für den F-TYPE Modelljahrgang 2024 hat Jaguar drei Motorvarianten im Programm: Den in Kombination mit Hinterradantrieb und der R-Dynamic-Ausstattung offerierten P300-Vierzylinder und die beiden Leistungsstufen des 5,0-Liter-V8 mit Kompressor-Aufladung für F-TYPE 75 und F-TYPE 75 R. Sie decken ein Leistungsspektrum zwischen 221 kW (300 PS) und den bereits angesprochenen 423 kW (575 PS) ab. Mit Letzterem schmilzt die Zeit für die Beschleunigung von 0 auf 100-km/h auf 3,7 Sekunden zusammen, die Höchstgeschwindigkeit wird elektronisch auf 300 km/h gedrosselt. Es ginge also noch mehr!

Tesla heeft afgelopen week een belangrijke mijlpaal bereikt in de Duitse fabriek nabij Berlijn. Voor het eerst zijn er vorige week duizend Model Y's van de band gerold in de Duitse Tesla-fabriek. Het is een belangrijke mijlpaal voor het automerk om de productie verder op te schalen. De fabriek nabij Berlijn heeft een productiecapaciteit van 500.000 auto's per jaar. Dat betekent dat er circa 10.000 auto's per week gebouwd kunnen worden. Verder in de auto-update: De elektrische Hummer is vanaf zaterdag ruim 6.000 dollar duurder geworden. Jaguar gaat 75 jaar sportauto vieren met een speciale F-Type. Er zal nooit een zelfrijdende Ferrari komen, belooft de topman. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Jaguar F-Type Convertible made initially launched all the way back in 2013. Since then, Jag rolled out various versions of this two-seater, namely the potent R and SVR models. Jaguar also gave the sporty F-Type a mid-cycle update in 2020. While Jaguar's F-Type used to have a variety of available engines, the only option under the hood for Jag's sports car is now a 5.0-liter V8. Jaguar's entry point for its F-Type sports a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that makes 444 hp. The top-range F-Type R features the same 5.0-liter V8 but is cranked up to 575 hp. Managing that power is an eight-speed automatic that feeds either the rear wheels or an all-wheel-drive system. On this episode of Quick Spin, Wesley Wren hops behind the wheel of a 2021 Jaguar F-Type R AWD to see how it handles winter. Wren walks you around the Jaguar F-Type R and highlights some of its more interesting features. Wren also takes the snow-tire-equipped Jaguar out for a spin and brings you along. Adding more context to the Jaguar F-Type, Wren talks with Mark Vaughn about this two-seat Jag. The two talk about their experiences with sports cars in the winter, the history of Jaguar's sports cars and the importance of having the right tire. Closing this show, the pair talk about what makes this Jaguar F-Type R AWD special.

Giles Chapman is a prolific automotive journalist whose book topics have ranged from the importance of car badges to the history of Land Rover. His latest title is "Jaguar Century: 100 Years of Automotive Excellence." Jaguar Century chronicles the company and its remarkable vehicles. It covers the manufacturer's start in 1922 by William Lyons and William Walmsley, and it reports on the current F-Type sports cars to the F-Pace SUV. a 1961 Jaguar XKE presented a recent Jaguar event in Sacramento, California. Image © Bruce Aldrich. Chapman, who began his career in 1984 in automotive consultancy, is our guest on episode #195 of The Weekly Driver Podcast. New Jaguar book: Aches, pains at 100 Co-hosts Bruce Aldrich and James Raia reached Chapman in England where he enthusiastically discussed all things Jaguar. As the book's advanced materials detail the book covers the transformation of the Swallow Sidecar into one of the auto industry's most revered car brands, synonymous with performance and luxury. It's filled with images, history, and in-depth analyses of the incredible cars Jaguar has created year after year." Jaguar Century is the latest book by Giles Chapman. "The task was to really cover the entire century, from the very beginning of the company to now, says Chapman. It takes you from a period from before they even made a car. The first thing they did in 1922 was to produce a sidebar on the side of a motorbike." The book details the brand in the trying economic times leading up to World War II. It also covers the resetting of Jaguar during England's bleak postwar years, first with its XK120, then the XK140 and XK150. As the press information states, the new volumes also chronicle sporting saloons (i.e., sedans) like the Mark 2 and Mark X standards for four-door luxury in the 1950s and 1960s. And it reports on the unveiling of the E-Type in 1961, the vehicle often cited as the most beautiful car ever made. "I accepted the commission to do it because I thought there was a fantastic story to tell there, not just of the cars but of the people," says Giles. As the author of more than 50 books, Chapman is an award-winning writer and commentator on the industry, history and culture of cars. In 1991 became the editor of Classic and Sports Car, the top-selling classic car magazine. Giles Chapman is a prolific automotive journalist. Giles has been a freelance writer since 1994. In addition to his books, Chapman contributes to national magazines and newspapers and is a commentary on automotive history. "What I really have enjoys is stitching this whole thing together in a way I hope somebody who drives a Jaguar now and doesn't know a tremendous about the history would get to know it," Giles says. While Giles has a great appreciation for Jaguar, he doesn't own a new or used model. But he's driven many. "The original XJ6 is just an amazing pinnacle of Jaguar did," Giles says of his favorite of the manufacturer's varied offering. "It was such an extraordinary comprise between the handling of the car and the ride comfort. It's amazing how they did it. I just love driving old XJ6s. "At the time, they were like nothing else and now they continue to feel like that. It's hard to express if you haven't driven one. They're very soothing and they make you feel very proud." "Jaguar Century: 100 Years of Automotive Excellence" is scheduled for publishing Sept. 28, 2021, by Motorbooks. The hardcover is 224 pages and is priced at $75.

※ 本文章发布于订阅号：百车全说，订阅号阅读更加方便，欢迎关注早在去年的11月，丰田就举办了一场线上发布会，虽然发布会的内容可以说是和他们旗下很多家用车一样无聊，但当他们宣布将旗下高性能品牌“GR”引进中国，并同时将新一代SUPRA一起带入国内市场的时候，我看到沉寂已久的弹幕瞬间爆炸，尽管当时发布会上并没有宣布SUPRA的定价，反而是在大聊特聊所谓的情怀，但GR SUPRA的消息还是让不少喜爱JDM的车迷们眼前一亮，甚至很多人猜测会不会跟着GR SUPRA的脚步，丰田还会把GR雅力士和GR 86带进来。为什么人们对于“GR”这个名头那么追捧，其实就是因为丰田GR就相当于奔驰AMG，是一个高性能的代名词，并且在之前的海外市场里，GR一直都不会像奔驰AMG那样把自己的调性拉那么高，反而出品的车子都挺亲民，所以吸引了不少粉丝。不过，就在发布会几个月之后，SUPRA的定价终于出来了，2.0T版本49.6万，价格甚至比同平台的宝马Z4 2.0T还贵；3.0T版本62.6万，比Z4便宜那么一点点……这个价格也直接让我大喊一声“好家伙”，丰田是真的敢定。而相比于丰田这种有些傲娇的定价，这台SUPRA在市场终端的行情就显得有些不可理喻了，我咨询了一下熟悉的销售，发现这台车目前配额只有可怜的300台，想要买车基本上都要加价8-10万，也就是说2.0T裸车接近60万，3.0T裸车突破70万……当然，相比于之前通过平行进口方式进来，定价85-90万的SUPRA，这个中规版本的定价似乎已经算是在JDM情怀粉面前“低头”了。所以，今天我们就聊一聊这台重生的“牛魔王”——丰田SUPRA。新一代SUPRA是一款什么样的车？从外观上来看，新一代SUPRA作为一款2门2座的硬顶跑车，长宽高分别为4381/1867/1310mm，轴距为2470mm，这个体型其实和丰田86/斯巴鲁BRZ这两台小跑车差不多。但是，抛开尺寸不谈，很多人都觉得这代SUPRA已经不能算是JDM了，真正的SUPRA已死，这就是宝马Z4的换壳车，被戏称为“史上第一款会漏油的丰田”……实际情况到底是什么样呢？首先，这代SUPRA的确不是一款在日本本土设计、生产的JDM车型，而是与宝马合作研发、与在售的G29 Z4同平台的产物。其中，SUPRA 2.0T版本配备了197马力/320牛米的B48发动机，3.0T版本则配备了340马力/500牛米B58发动机，这两台车的动力系统跟宝马Z4 25i和Z4 M40i从型号到参数完全一致，匹配的变速箱也是宝马标志性的ZF 8AT。所以，你说这是牛魔王，你觉得铁扇公主会相信吗，要知道即便以前受制于“君子协定”的老款牛魔王也能做到280马力，而出口到海外市场的牛魔王则可以在原厂状态下达到320马力，这也是为什么很多人说丰田用将近30年的时间干了个寂寞。此外，扒一扒这代SUPRA的内饰就会发现，酷似“鸡腿”的电子档把、空调控制面板、车机控制器……都与宝马如出一辙，所以网上就有人推测，SUPRA除了发动机和变速箱，它的发动机管理系统、变速箱模块、空调和多媒体系统等等均来自宝马，甚至插上宝马的电脑就可以进行故障诊断和编程编码，活脱脱一台宝马车，以至于这代SUPRA与曾经的牛魔王已经没什么直接的关系了，SUPRA已死的说法其实也没错。但是，如果说这代SUPRA是Z4的换壳车，这个说法其实并不严谨。我们都知道，早期Z4的底盘，一直与同时期3系有直接关系，比如E85、E86、E89的Z4就是在E46 3系的底盘基础上“套用”的，但到了这代Z4，它的底盘就与这代G20 3系有了非常明显的区别，尤其是悬挂摆臂等主要部件，从成本角度来看，这种突然打破传统的做法是不划算的。其实主要原因就在于，这代Z4从立项之初，丰田的底盘团队就已参与进来，也就是说，宝马与丰田两家团队，共同完成了这代Z4与SUPRA的底盘架构，而不是宝马先研发，丰田再套用，虽然基础底盘架构依然是在G20 3系基础上二次开发而来的，但是悬挂部件都根据跑车需求做了重新设计，可以说是为Z4与SUPRA量身定制全新底盘、全新平台。有意思的是，宝马与丰田合作完成底盘架构之后就互相道别了，据说当年两车都在相同的测试场地进行测试，但是宝马的工程师不能开SUPRA，而丰田的工程师也摸不到Z4。.也就说，这两车虽然共享底盘架构和悬挂部件，但在后续调校上依然会有非常大的区别，驾驶感受和动态表现也会有明显不同，因为Z4的定位是软顶敞篷跑车，说的洋气一点，这车属于Roadster，目的就是能让你优雅地开蓬兜风；而SUPRA是更加硬核的纯种硬顶跑车，追求的是山路以及赛道中的操控。这个区别其实可以简单的参考一下保时捷718，哪怕是同属保时捷调校出来的车，软顶敞篷的718 Boxster和硬顶的718 Cayman开起来也会有点区别，更何况Z4和SUPRA还是两个不同团队进行调校，这就像是同样一种鱼给两个不同的厨师，一个做成了极度清淡的清蒸，另一个做成了咸到发齁的红烧。同时也是由于coupe与roadster在车身结构上的差异，所以SUPRA的车身刚性会远远优于Z4，毕竟Z4受制于敞篷导致刚性成为短板，当然敞篷机构自身的重量也会成为操控的累赘，而按照丰田的说法，SUPRA的白车身抗扭刚性已经超越了自家的传奇超跑LFA，而当年LFA的车身确实是可以大吹特吹一番的。更有意思的是，丰田为了延续“开不坏”的口碑，特地将宝马的B48和B58发动机运到日本进行耐久性测试，将未通过测试的零件全部打回宝马进行改进，看来丰田对有着漏油传统的宝马发动机不太放心啊……所以与其说这代SUPRA是“史上第一款会漏油的丰田”，不如说这代Z4是“史上第一款不会漏油的宝马”。如果单从一台跑车的角度来看SUPRA现在的所作所为，其实并没有什么错，但问题就出在这台车叫SUPRA。反观这代SUPRA，与其说它是曾经那台大马力牛魔王的换代车型，反倒是更像是早期Z4 coupe的精神传承，从上代E89 Z4开始，宝马便放弃了纯硬顶版本车型，改成了硬顶敞篷车型，到了这代更是直接变为软顶敞篷，说明从车型定位上就放弃了激烈驾驶，从而彻底丧失了竞争718 Cayman的能力，要知道曾经Z4的coupe和敞篷版本可以算是保时捷Cayman和Boxster的直接对手。当然如今SUPRA和Z4也足够聪明，一个做成硬顶跑车，一个做成软顶敞篷跑车，这当然是事先商量好的，以针对不同的消费群体，谁也抢不了他人的饭碗，就像保时捷718那样，Cayman作为一台中置后驱、驾控纯粹、主打性能的驾驶机器，而Boxster则作为一台有一定驾驶乐趣但更注重腔调的小跑车，来满足客户多元化的需求。总的来说，这代SUPRA确实不算一台纯正的JDM车型，但也绝对没有别人说的那么不堪，相反如果你不戴着JDM的有色眼镜去看它，或者无视之前牛魔王的辉煌，也不在意所谓的代际传承关系，那么这台SUPRA其实是一台非常棒的跑车。SUPRA这车真的不如以前了吗？既然聊到了SUPRA，那自然要聊一聊改装相关的话题，毕竟之前老款SUPRA能获得“牛魔王”的别称，这可不是浪得虚名的，那么现在这台SUPRA还能不能重现往日的荣光，咱们还是得从之前著名的2JZ发动机开始说起。时间拉回到1990年8月，那时候JZ系列引擎正式发布，其实也就是1JZ和2JZ，而1JZ之所以出名，其实是因为它有个2.5L版本的1JZ-GTE，也只有这个版本的发动机是雅马哈负责设计的，雅马哈在当时以1JZ-GE为基础进行强化，进而做出了两个发动机版本，主要区别就是有没有VVT-i，也就是智能可变气门正时。虽然这两个版本的发动机都因为“君子协定”被做到了280马力，但扭力输出特性完全不同，所以那时候日本国内玩车界只认1JZ-GTE是高性能机器，因为他们大多数玩儿的都是山路和赛道，根本不需要那么高的峰值马力，这一点看过头文字D的朋友都知道，里面的车子其实最大马力都不算高，以至于这台1JZ-GTE发动机在当年都没怎么做过出口，都被日本的本土市场消化掉了，而2JZ-GTE则随着SUPRA出口到了海外市场，也走向了世界。虽然2JZ-GTE发动机在当年不怎么受日本玩家的待见，但是远在大洋彼岸的美国玩家却觉得“真香”，原因总结下来就一句话：“便宜、耐用、改装潜力大”，这也是为何2JZ-GTE被称为一代神机，但是，让这颗机头成为神话开端的却不是美国公司，而是来自日本的HKS。日本HKS这个公司其实很有意思，创始人团队出自丰田，而下面的研发团队也吸收（挖墙脚）了不少来自丰田、SARD、YAMAHA的前员工，所以他们对于日系车的发动机可以说了如指掌，你别看HKS现在什么都做，但当时HKS的主力产品却是涡轮套件，主攻的市场是0-400米加速赛，换言之，他们那时候的主要竞争对手，都是一众玩儿直线赛的美国公司。既然要和美国人竞争，自然是要拿出看家本领的，反观那时候的美国市场，美国佬自己的东西虽然也很不错，但是玩JDM的车主都追求“原汁原味”，很多人都觉得如果不去用日本本土的改装件，就不能称作JDM。就在这样的时代背景之下，那时候的HKS针对2JZ-GTE这台发动机，推出了涡轮升级套件和周边控制配件，比如：V-Pro电脑、电子增压控制器（俗称“电子水喉制”）、中冷器等等，并且价格卖的也不算贵，可以说是“良心产品”。到了2020年的东京改装展的时候，日本专门跑D1大奖赛的著名漂移赛车手“齐藤太吾”的座驾被拉到现场进行展出，虽然这台车的外壳是新款的SUPRA，可是发动机依旧使用的是2JZ-GTE发动机，并且这台赛车取了个名字叫“GR SUPRA MONSTER EDITION”，其中，“GR”代表丰田的御用改装部门，“SUPRA”就是丰田这台车的名字，后面的“MONSTER EDITION”则有两层含义，一层意思是代表这台车是齐藤太吾的座驾，因为齐藤太吾在D1赛事圈里被人称作“怪兽”，另一层含义则是这台车的性能也属于怪兽级别。而这台赛车上的2JZ-GTE发动机，配上HKS出品的3.4L强化套件（也就是把原来3.0L的2JZ-GTE进行扩缸和强化），同时把之前的原厂涡轮拆掉，换上了HKS出品的GTIII-4R涡轮套件，并且通过取代电脑进行ECU等方面的设定，最终动力数据做到了800马力/883牛米。所以，为什么过去很多人把老款SUPRA称作牛魔王，就是因为这台车的改装潜力实在太大了，即使不去追求那么夸张的1000匹甚至1200匹马力，也可以轻松达到700匹以上的动力。而到了现在新款的SUPRA，其实所搭载宝马出品的那颗B58发动机潜力也不小，并且科技含量更高，发动机技术也更先进，之前美国的“Papadakis Racing”就用这颗机头做到了1033.9马力/1231牛米的数据，并且操刀的正是这个Papadakis Racing的创始人，也是专攻美国D级方程式的机械大师Stephan Papadakis，并且这台车改出来也是为了去参加美国的D级方程式比赛（也就是漂移方程式）。换言之，如果你想达到这种“变态级”的数据，其实无论是之前的2JZ-GTE也好，还是现在的B58发动机也罢，都可以做到差不多的参数，因为赛用改装是可以也有必要去追求极致的动力，如果以日常的性能改装来看，现在的B58机头在BM3程序的加持下，一阶程序做到突破400马力/600牛米很轻松，二阶程序配合周边硬件可以突破440马力/680牛米；而2.0T版本的B48B20B机头其实和宝马现款430i是一样的，只是人为的限制了马力输出，所以做完BM3一阶程序基本上可以达到240马力，如果上到二阶程序的话，配合硬件基本上可以突破270马力。所以，现在的新款SUPRA的改装潜力不能说比以前差，只能说它的动力改装能提升到哪种程度，完全取决于这颗宝马的动力总成，能被这些主打动力改装的大厂推到什么样的高度，有多少赛车技术愿意进行下放。并且，现在基于宝马的底盘做出来的新款SUPRA，其实相比于过去的老款车型而言，在操控性上有了质的飞跃，最起码不会再像过去的SUPRA那样“直道王、弯道亡”，对于喜欢走街、跑山、下赛道人而言，现款的SUPRA更像是一个多面手，所以实际上新款的SUPRA从综合性能上来看，是远胜于过去旧款车型的。至于HELLAFLUSH这一类不以动力作为取向，而是以姿态作为主导的改装风格……你用一台SUPRA改出来，除了你知道它是一台改装SUPRA之外，还有别的用处吗？为什么说SUPRA在国内的定价非常离谱？虽然SUPRA是一台很不错的车，但以目前的情况来看，SUPRA在国内的定价确实有些离谱，我们从JDM的“对立面”德系性能圈子里，挑出两款非常有代表性、同时国内也能买到的车型，一起与SUPRA做个中美差价对比。首先是奥迪S3，这台车大家都很熟悉了，德系钢炮代表作之一，也是“购置税秒超跑”的主力军。这台车在美国起价43000美元（约合28.1万人民币），国内19款定价36.38万，按照停产前的行情，优惠后在32万左右，但看裸车价的差别，中美差价在4万左右。而SUPRA 2.0T版本美国起价43090美元（28.2万人民币），很“巧合”的比奥迪S3贵了90美金，并且美版的2.0T SUPRA还是255马力的高功率发动机，到国内反倒阉割成197马力，并且卖到了49.6万的高价，相当于20万，算上终端市场加价8-10万，中美差价达到了30万左右。其次是奥迪S4，这也是6缸B级性能车的当家花旦，美国起价49900美元（约合32.6万人民币），国内20款定价46.88万，不算购置税的话，中美差价在14万左右，毕竟国内对大排量车型征税较多。而SUPRA 3.0T版本美国起价51090美元（33.4万人民币），又很“巧合”的与奥迪S4差不多，更重要的是，美版的SUPRA 3.0T竟然有382马力，也是高功率发动机，到国内再一次惨遭阉割，在动力变成340马力的同时，价格却卖到了62.6万，算上终端市场的加价，使得中美差价接近40万。哪怕我们不去和奥迪这种本身性价比就挺高的车子去做对比，就拿SUPRA去和同根同源的宝马Z4对比，你会发现美版的Z4 30i比SUPRA 2.0T版本贵了6700美元（4.4万人民币），美版的Z4 M40i比SUPRA 3.0T版本贵了12610美元（8.2万人民币），换言之Z4的价位几乎高了一个量级。但是，到了国内以后，即使这俩兄弟的动力都被砍了一刀，但价格仍然保持一致，以至于在国外价格低于Z4的SUPRA摇身一变成了“高富帅”，甚至SUPRA 2.0T版本还要比Z4更贵一点，所以这是Z4在国内的定价太“亲民”，还是SUPRA定价太离谱呢？首先，丰田是玩营销的高手，SUPRA作为一台自带JDM情怀的跑车，丰田知道这是一次非常好的机会，利用所谓的非官方小道消息，也就是广为流传的“300台配额”，不但可以制造加价话题、炒高价格，还能免费扩大知名度，这是投广告都达不到的效果，即便之后出点什么事儿，丰田作为官方也可以出来撇清关系，表示自己没有搞限量，那都是谣言，再声明一下加价属于市场行为或者经销商行为，然后象征性的做出一些警告或者惩罚，甚至直接冷处理，到最后不了了之。其次，丰田其实心里很清楚，能以这个价格去买SUPRA的人虽然不会多，但也远远不止300人，所以丰田消费的就是国内残存的JDM情怀，毕竟之前就连37895美元（24.8万人民币）的思域Type R都能在国内炒到70万天价，关键还有人买，正儿八经的中规SUPRA怎么就不能卖个高价了？最后，丰田这一手“又当又立”玩的确实很溜，看上去决定SUPRA国内定价的是供求关系，实际上能否满足供求关系的关键点还是在丰田，但凡丰田敢不玩饥饿营销，让SUPRA像宝马Z4那样不限量供应，你觉得这车敢定这个价格吗？所以，丰田现在就是吃准了消费者“非他不可”的心态，只要是热销的车型都给你玩一手“供不应求”，然后自己躺在那儿开开心心的数钱，看消费者争的头破血流。除了SUPRA，同价位我们还能买到哪些纯种跑车那么，现在除了SUPRA之外，在同价位中我们还能买到哪些纯种的跑车，请注意是纯种跑车，不是什么C43 COUPE、S5 COUPE、M440i这些基于轿车打造的两门车。首先，比这台车便宜点的BRZ、86、MX-5基本可以说再见了，至少在目前的情况下来看，想要买到这些极其亲民的小跑车，就只能去二手车市场讨价还价，要不然就只能去看看美系车，只是2.3T野马的性能放在今天确实差点意思，而5.0L的野马GT直到现在也没有国6排放的新车。其次，就是和SUPRA同根同源，但是调教不同的宝马Z4，其实在我看来，与其追求所谓的情怀去买一台SUPRA，还真不如去买一台Z4，而且Z4现在价格不仅有优惠，还能敞篷，这骚气程度难道不比SUPRA来的更好？而且别忘了这可是蓝天白云标的宝马哦。最后，就是价格比SUPRA稍高的跑车，包含了保时捷718和捷豹F-TYPE，现在这两台车的行情都非常坚挺，基本上都没有什么优惠，所以不要再黑人家捷豹是“7折豹”了，现在你如果想买一台最新款的3.0T F-TYPE回来，能原价裸提都已经算商家让利了。所以，现在的SUPRA其实切的价格区间很准，这个价格向下已经没有什么纯种跑车能够选择，而和比他贵的车型相比，车辆性能也非常的能打，毕竟SUPRA 2.0T版本49.6万元的指导价正好卡在福特野马（指导价36.98万起）和捷豹F TYPE 2.0T版本（指导价58.2万起）之间，即便是3.0T版本的SUPRA，官方指导价也只是定了一个62.6万，比宝马Z4 M40i的63.38万指导价要低一些，比F-TYPE 3.0T（指导价79.8万起）这种配备六缸发动机的车要便宜十来万。当然，很多人吐槽的其实并不是这台车的指导价，而是现在这台车实际成交价竟然多出了8-10万，虽然我们一方面不支持这种加价销售的行为，但是另一方面，在市场经济的环境下，物以稀为贵一直是不变的道理，丰田那里有意的在控制货量，那市场上就会容易出现僧多粥少的问题，这就跟限量的球鞋一样，加价只是正常的市场反馈，毕竟钱在自己手里，可以选择不买。JDM当年为什么火，如今是不是死翘翘了总的来说，JDM虽然足够情怀，但我总觉得现在还喊着JDM情怀的人，确实有些“矫揉造作”。首先，咱们国家在90年代JDM车型的辉煌时刻，根本没有多少人能真正接触到所谓的JDM车型，更不要说去改装、跑山、下赛道了，这是时代的大背景，而现在喊着JDM的车迷，很多都是在后来通过向前追溯的方式去了解到、认知到JDM的文化，并没有多少人真正的去体验过纯种的JDM车型。其次，JDM的核心在于汽车改装，换言之就是一台底子不错的车给到你，然后通过你的双手或者改装技师的双手，配合各家厂商推出的改装件，从而打造出专属于你的车辆，然后你可以开着这台独一无二的车子在路上飞驰人生……但是，汽车改装在咱们国内一直都属于违法行为，除非你根本不上牌也不上路开，每次都用板车拖着去赛道，否则就是会被认定为“非法改装”。再者，现在所谓的JDM已经没有几台真正的性能车了，之前日本所谓的“国宝级跑车”，除了GTR还是保留现款在售之外，NSX已经变成了混动超跑，转子系列从RX8停产之后就再无音讯，SUPRA现在也成了Z4换壳……尽管还有诸如86/BRZ、370Z、STI、EVO、思域TYPE R之类的车子在国内流通，可是这些车要么价格被炒的飞起，要么根本无法和同价位的性能车在绝对性能上进行匹敌。最后，在JDM的历史当中，不论是SUPRA还是当年那些日系性能车、跑车的辉煌，主要就是因为“性价比高”，你别管后期改装要花多少钱，至少这车在买来的时候就是便宜，就是改装潜力大，就是改装件多，而且想崩直线崩直线，想玩操控玩操控，怎么玩都取决于你，所以很能满足当时年轻人那种“屌丝逆袭”的快感，这一点和现在玩儿VAG钢炮的差不多，你别管我车子贵不贵，你看我崩不崩你就完了，可是到了现在的情况下，“情怀”两个字最终都变成了“钱”，经典的JDM车型越来越贵，逐渐变为有钱人的收藏品，看看之前二手市场里标价168万的GTR R32，你就知道想弄一台经典的JDM车型难度有多大了。所以，JDM已死并不是一句危言耸听的话，至少在当下这个阶段，想在国内好好的去玩JDM车型确实不是一件容易的事情，我们且不说JDM车辆的价格，或者是不是还有足够纯粹的JDM车型，即便我们只是把JDM爱好者们所痴迷的日本改装件，单拎出来去和欧美品牌的产品进行对比，去看看改装件的性能和相关的配套改装件，你会发现他们早已经被欧美品牌超越，现在日本品牌能拿出手的，无非就是所谓的“匠人精神”以及品牌背后的故事，可是故事不能当饭吃，匠人的双手也不会比数控机床更精准，不是么？音频图文更新在订阅号：百车全说每期抽三条留言，每人赠168元的“芥末绿”燃油添加剂一瓶点击订阅，每周三，周六更新会有提醒新听友可以搜索：百车全说2014，百车全说2015，百车全说2016，往期300多个小时的节目可供收听
※ 本文章发布于订阅号：百车全说，订阅号阅读更加方便，欢迎关注早在去年的11月，丰田就举办了一场线上发布会，虽然发布会的内容可以说是和他们旗下很多家用车一样无聊，但当他们宣布将旗下高性能品牌“GR”引进中国，并同时将新一代SUPRA一起带入国内市场的时候，我看到沉寂已久的弹幕瞬间爆炸，尽管当时发布会上并没有宣布SUPRA的定价，反而是在大聊特聊所谓的情怀，但GR SUPRA的消息还是让不少喜爱JDM的车迷们眼前一亮，甚至很多人猜测会不会跟着GR SUPRA的脚步，丰田还会把GR雅力士和GR 86带进来。为什么人们对于“GR”这个名头那么追捧，其实就是因为丰田GR就相当于奔驰AMG，是一个高性能的代名词，并且在之前的海外市场里，GR一直都不会像奔驰AMG那样把自己的调性拉那么高，反而出品的车子都挺亲民，所以吸引了不少粉丝。不过，就在发布会几个月之后，SUPRA的定价终于出来了，2.0T版本49.6万，价格甚至比同平台的宝马Z4 2.0T还贵；3.0T版本62.6万，比Z4便宜那么一点点……这个价格也直接让我大喊一声“好家伙”，丰田是真的敢定。而相比于丰田这种有些傲娇的定价，这台SUPRA在市场终端的行情就显得有些不可理喻了，我咨询了一下熟悉的销售，发现这台车目前配额只有可怜的300台，想要买车基本上都要加价8-10万，也就是说2.0T裸车接近60万，3.0T裸车突破70万……当然，相比于之前通过平行进口方式进来，定价85-90万的SUPRA，这个中规版本的定价似乎已经算是在JDM情怀粉面前“低头”了。所以，今天我们就聊一聊这台重生的“牛魔王”——丰田SUPRA。新一代SUPRA是一款什么样的车？从外观上来看，新一代SUPRA作为一款2门2座的硬顶跑车，长宽高分别为4381/1867/1310mm，轴距为2470mm，这个体型其实和丰田86/斯巴鲁BRZ这两台小跑车差不多。但是，抛开尺寸不谈，很多人都觉得这代SUPRA已经不能算是JDM了，真正的SUPRA已死，这就是宝马Z4的换壳车，被戏称为“史上第一款会漏油的丰田”……实际情况到底是什么样呢？首先，这代SUPRA的确不是一款在日本本土设计、生产的JDM车型，而是与宝马合作研发、与在售的G29 Z4同平台的产物。其中，SUPRA 2.0T版本配备了197马力/320牛米的B48发动机，3.0T版本则配备了340马力/500牛米B58发动机，这两台车的动力系统跟宝马Z4 25i和Z4 M40i从型号到参数完全一致，匹配的变速箱也是宝马标志性的ZF 8AT。所以，你说这是牛魔王，你觉得铁扇公主会相信吗，要知道即便以前受制于“君子协定”的老款牛魔王也能做到280马力，而出口到海外市场的牛魔王则可以在原厂状态下达到320马力，这也是为什么很多人说丰田用将近30年的时间干了个寂寞。此外，扒一扒这代SUPRA的内饰就会发现，酷似“鸡腿”的电子档把、空调控制面板、车机控制器……都与宝马如出一辙，所以网上就有人推测，SUPRA除了发动机和变速箱，它的发动机管理系统、变速箱模块、空调和多媒体系统等等均来自宝马，甚至插上宝马的电脑就可以进行故障诊断和编程编码，活脱脱一台宝马车，以至于这代SUPRA与曾经的牛魔王已经没什么直接的关系了，SUPRA已死的说法其实也没错。但是，如果说这代SUPRA是Z4的换壳车，这个说法其实并不严谨。我们都知道，早期Z4的底盘，一直与同时期3系有直接关系，比如E85、E86、E89的Z4就是在E46 3系的底盘基础上“套用”的，但到了这代Z4，它的底盘就与这代G20 3系有了非常明显的区别，尤其是悬挂摆臂等主要部件，从成本角度来看，这种突然打破传统的做法是不划算的。其实主要原因就在于，这代Z4从立项之初，丰田的底盘团队就已参与进来，也就是说，宝马与丰田两家团队，共同完成了这代Z4与SUPRA的底盘架构，而不是宝马先研发，丰田再套用，虽然基础底盘架构依然是在G20 3系基础上二次开发而来的，但是悬挂部件都根据跑车需求做了重新设计，可以说是为Z4与SUPRA量身定制全新底盘、全新平台。有意思的是，宝马与丰田合作完成底盘架构之后就互相道别了，据说当年两车都在相同的测试场地进行测试，但是宝马的工程师不能开SUPRA，而丰田的工程师也摸不到Z4。.也就说，这两车虽然共享底盘架构和悬挂部件，但在后续调校上依然会有非常大的区别，驾驶感受和动态表现也会有明显不同，因为Z4的定位是软顶敞篷跑车，说的洋气一点，这车属于Roadster，目的就是能让你优雅地开蓬兜风；而SUPRA是更加硬核的纯种硬顶跑车，追求的是山路以及赛道中的操控。这个区别其实可以简单的参考一下保时捷718，哪怕是同属保时捷调校出来的车，软顶敞篷的718 Boxster和硬顶的718 Cayman开起来也会有点区别，更何况Z4和SUPRA还是两个不同团队进行调校，这就像是同样一种鱼给两个不同的厨师，一个做成了极度清淡的清蒸，另一个做成了咸到发齁的红烧。同时也是由于coupe与roadster在车身结构上的差异，所以SUPRA的车身刚性会远远优于Z4，毕竟Z4受制于敞篷导致刚性成为短板，当然敞篷机构自身的重量也会成为操控的累赘，而按照丰田的说法，SUPRA的白车身抗扭刚性已经超越了自家的传奇超跑LFA，而当年LFA的车身确实是可以大吹特吹一番的。更有意思的是，丰田为了延续“开不坏”的口碑，特地将宝马的B48和B58发动机运到日本进行耐久性测试，将未通过测试的零件全部打回宝马进行改进，看来丰田对有着漏油传统的宝马发动机不太放心啊……所以与其说这代SUPRA是“史上第一款会漏油的丰田”，不如说这代Z4是“史上第一款不会漏油的宝马”。如果单从一台跑车的角度来看SUPRA现在的所作所为，其实并没有什么错，但问题就出在这台车叫SUPRA。反观这代SUPRA，与其说它是曾经那台大马力牛魔王的换代车型，反倒是更像是早期Z4 coupe的精神传承，从上代E89 Z4开始，宝马便放弃了纯硬顶版本车型，改成了硬顶敞篷车型，到了这代更是直接变为软顶敞篷，说明从车型定位上就放弃了激烈驾驶，从而彻底丧失了竞争718 Cayman的能力，要知道曾经Z4的coupe和敞篷版本可以算是保时捷Cayman和Boxster的直接对手。当然如今SUPRA和Z4也足够聪明，一个做成硬顶跑车，一个做成软顶敞篷跑车，这当然是事先商量好的，以针对不同的消费群体，谁也抢不了他人的饭碗，就像保时捷718那样，Cayman作为一台中置后驱、驾控纯粹、主打性能的驾驶机器，而Boxster则作为一台有一定驾驶乐趣但更注重腔调的小跑车，来满足客户多元化的需求。总的来说，这代SUPRA确实不算一台纯正的JDM车型，但也绝对没有别人说的那么不堪，相反如果你不戴着JDM的有色眼镜去看它，或者无视之前牛魔王的辉煌，也不在意所谓的代际传承关系，那么这台SUPRA其实是一台非常棒的跑车。SUPRA这车真的不如以前了吗？既然聊到了SUPRA，那自然要聊一聊改装相关的话题，毕竟之前老款SUPRA能获得“牛魔王”的别称，这可不是浪得虚名的，那么现在这台SUPRA还能不能重现往日的荣光，咱们还是得从之前著名的2JZ发动机开始说起。时间拉回到1990年8月，那时候JZ系列引擎正式发布，其实也就是1JZ和2JZ，而1JZ之所以出名，其实是因为它有个2.5L版本的1JZ-GTE，也只有这个版本的发动机是雅马哈负责设计的，雅马哈在当时以1JZ-GE为基础进行强化，进而做出了两个发动机版本，主要区别就是有没有VVT-i，也就是智能可变气门正时。虽然这两个版本的发动机都因为“君子协定”被做到了280马力，但扭力输出特性完全不同，所以那时候日本国内玩车界只认1JZ-GTE是高性能机器，因为他们大多数玩儿的都是山路和赛道，根本不需要那么高的峰值马力，这一点看过头文字D的朋友都知道，里面的车子其实最大马力都不算高，以至于这台1JZ-GTE发动机在当年都没怎么做过出口，都被日本的本土市场消化掉了，而2JZ-GTE则随着SUPRA出口到了海外市场，也走向了世界。虽然2JZ-GTE发动机在当年不怎么受日本玩家的待见，但是远在大洋彼岸的美国玩家却觉得“真香”，原因总结下来就一句话：“便宜、耐用、改装潜力大”，这也是为何2JZ-GTE被称为一代神机，但是，让这颗机头成为神话开端的却不是美国公司，而是来自日本的HKS。日本HKS这个公司其实很有意思，创始人团队出自丰田，而下面的研发团队也吸收（挖墙脚）了不少来自丰田、SARD、YAMAHA的前员工，所以他们对于日系车的发动机可以说了如指掌，你别看HKS现在什么都做，但当时HKS的主力产品却是涡轮套件，主攻的市场是0-400米加速赛，换言之，他们那时候的主要竞争对手，都是一众玩儿直线赛的美国公司。既然要和美国人竞争，自然是要拿出看家本领的，反观那时候的美国市场，美国佬自己的东西虽然也很不错，但是玩JDM的车主都追求“原汁原味”，很多人都觉得如果不去用日本本土的改装件，就不能称作JDM。就在这样的时代背景之下，那时候的HKS针对2JZ-GTE这台发动机，推出了涡轮升级套件和周边控制配件，比如：V-Pro电脑、电子增压控制器（俗称“电子水喉制”）、中冷器等等，并且价格卖的也不算贵，可以说是“良心产品”。到了2020年的东京改装展的时候，日本专门跑D1大奖赛的著名漂移赛车手“齐藤太吾”的座驾被拉到现场进行展出，虽然这台车的外壳是新款的SUPRA，可是发动机依旧使用的是2JZ-GTE发动机，并且这台赛车取了个名字叫“GR SUPRA MONSTER EDITION”，其中，“GR”代表丰田的御用改装部门，“SUPRA”就是丰田这台车的名字，后面的“MONSTER EDITION”则有两层含义，一层意思是代表这台车是齐藤太吾的座驾，因为齐藤太吾在D1赛事圈里被人称作“怪兽”，另一层含义则是这台车的性能也属于怪兽级别。而这台赛车上的2JZ-GTE发动机，配上HKS出品的3.4L强化套件（也就是把原来3.0L的2JZ-GTE进行扩缸和强化），同时把之前的原厂涡轮拆掉，换上了HKS出品的GTIII-4R涡轮套件，并且通过取代电脑进行ECU等方面的设定，最终动力数据做到了800马力/883牛米。所以，为什么过去很多人把老款SUPRA称作牛魔王，就是因为这台车的改装潜力实在太大了，即使不去追求那么夸张的1000匹甚至1200匹马力，也可以轻松达到700匹以上的动力。而到了现在新款的SUPRA，其实所搭载宝马出品的那颗B58发动机潜力也不小，并且科技含量更高，发动机技术也更先进，之前美国的“Papadakis Racing”就用这颗机头做到了1033.9马力/1231牛米的数据，并且操刀的正是这个Papadakis Racing的创始人，也是专攻美国D级方程式的机械大师Stephan Papadakis，并且这台车改出来也是为了去参加美国的D级方程式比赛（也就是漂移方程式）。换言之，如果你想达到这种“变态级”的数据，其实无论是之前的2JZ-GTE也好，还是现在的B58发动机也罢，都可以做到差不多的参数，因为赛用改装是可以也有必要去追求极致的动力，如果以日常的性能改装来看，现在的B58机头在BM3程序的加持下，一阶程序做到突破400马力/600牛米很轻松，二阶程序配合周边硬件可以突破440马力/680牛米；而2.0T版本的B48B20B机头其实和宝马现款430i是一样的，只是人为的限制了马力输出，所以做完BM3一阶程序基本上可以达到240马力，如果上到二阶程序的话，配合硬件基本上可以突破270马力。所以，现在的新款SUPRA的改装潜力不能说比以前差，只能说它的动力改装能提升到哪种程度，完全取决于这颗宝马的动力总成，能被这些主打动力改装的大厂推到什么样的高度，有多少赛车技术愿意进行下放。并且，现在基于宝马的底盘做出来的新款SUPRA，其实相比于过去的老款车型而言，在操控性上有了质的飞跃，最起码不会再像过去的SUPRA那样“直道王、弯道亡”，对于喜欢走街、跑山、下赛道人而言，现款的SUPRA更像是一个多面手，所以实际上新款的SUPRA从综合性能上来看，是远胜于过去旧款车型的。至于HELLAFLUSH这一类不以动力作为取向，而是以姿态作为主导的改装风格……你用一台SUPRA改出来，除了你知道它是一台改装SUPRA之外，还有别的用处吗？为什么说SUPRA在国内的定价非常离谱？虽然SUPRA是一台很不错的车，但以目前的情况来看，SUPRA在国内的定价确实有些离谱，我们从JDM的“对立面”德系性能圈子里，挑出两款非常有代表性、同时国内也能买到的车型，一起与SUPRA做个中美差价对比。首先是奥迪S3，这台车大家都很熟悉了，德系钢炮代表作之一，也是“购置税秒超跑”的主力军。这台车在美国起价43000美元（约合28.1万人民币），国内19款定价36.38万，按照停产前的行情，优惠后在32万左右，但看裸车价的差别，中美差价在4万左右。而SUPRA 2.0T版本美国起价43090美元（28.2万人民币），很“巧合”的比奥迪S3贵了90美金，并且美版的2.0T SUPRA还是255马力的高功率发动机，到国内反倒阉割成197马力，并且卖到了49.6万的高价，相当于20万，算上终端市场加价8-10万，中美差价达到了30万左右。其次是奥迪S4，这也是6缸B级性能车的当家花旦，美国起价49900美元（约合32.6万人民币），国内20款定价46.88万，不算购置税的话，中美差价在14万左右，毕竟国内对大排量车型征税较多。而SUPRA 3.0T版本美国起价51090美元（33.4万人民币），又很“巧合”的与奥迪S4差不多，更重要的是，美版的SUPRA 3.0T竟然有382马力，也是高功率发动机，到国内再一次惨遭阉割，在动力变成340马力的同时，价格却卖到了62.6万，算上终端市场的加价，使得中美差价接近40万。哪怕我们不去和奥迪这种本身性价比就挺高的车子去做对比，就拿SUPRA去和同根同源的宝马Z4对比，你会发现美版的Z4 30i比SUPRA 2.0T版本贵了6700美元（4.4万人民币），美版的Z4 M40i比SUPRA 3.0T版本贵了12610美元（8.2万人民币），换言之Z4的价位几乎高了一个量级。但是，到了国内以后，即使这俩兄弟的动力都被砍了一刀，但价格仍然保持一致，以至于在国外价格低于Z4的SUPRA摇身一变成了“高富帅”，甚至SUPRA 2.0T版本还要比Z4更贵一点，所以这是Z4在国内的定价太“亲民”，还是SUPRA定价太离谱呢？首先，丰田是玩营销的高手，SUPRA作为一台自带JDM情怀的跑车，丰田知道这是一次非常好的机会，利用所谓的非官方小道消息，也就是广为流传的“300台配额”，不但可以制造加价话题、炒高价格，还能免费扩大知名度，这是投广告都达不到的效果，即便之后出点什么事儿，丰田作为官方也可以出来撇清关系，表示自己没有搞限量，那都是谣言，再声明一下加价属于市场行为或者经销商行为，然后象征性的做出一些警告或者惩罚，甚至直接冷处理，到最后不了了之。其次，丰田其实心里很清楚，能以这个价格去买SUPRA的人虽然不会多，但也远远不止300人，所以丰田消费的就是国内残存的JDM情怀，毕竟之前就连37895美元（24.8万人民币）的思域Type R都能在国内炒到70万天价，关键还有人买，正儿八经的中规SUPRA怎么就不能卖个高价了？最后，丰田这一手“又当又立”玩的确实很溜，看上去决定SUPRA国内定价的是供求关系，实际上能否满足供求关系的关键点还是在丰田，但凡丰田敢不玩饥饿营销，让SUPRA像宝马Z4那样不限量供应，你觉得这车敢定这个价格吗？所以，丰田现在就是吃准了消费者“非他不可”的心态，只要是热销的车型都给你玩一手“供不应求”，然后自己躺在那儿开开心心的数钱，看消费者争的头破血流。除了SUPRA，同价位我们还能买到哪些纯种跑车那么，现在除了SUPRA之外，在同价位中我们还能买到哪些纯种的跑车，请注意是纯种跑车，不是什么C43 COUPE、S5 COUPE、M440i这些基于轿车打造的两门车。首先，比这台车便宜点的BRZ、86、MX-5基本可以说再见了，至少在目前的情况下来看，想要买到这些极其亲民的小跑车，就只能去二手车市场讨价还价，要不然就只能去看看美系车，只是2.3T野马的性能放在今天确实差点意思，而5.0L的野马GT直到现在也没有国6排放的新车。其次，就是和SUPRA同根同源，但是调教不同的宝马Z4，其实在我看来，与其追求所谓的情怀去买一台SUPRA，还真不如去买一台Z4，而且Z4现在价格不仅有优惠，还能敞篷，这骚气程度难道不比SUPRA来的更好？而且别忘了这可是蓝天白云标的宝马哦。最后，就是价格比SUPRA稍高的跑车，包含了保时捷718和捷豹F-TYPE，现在这两台车的行情都非常坚挺，基本上都没有什么优惠，所以不要再黑人家捷豹是“7折豹”了，现在你如果想买一台最新款的3.0T

Z4同平台的产物。其中，SUPRA 2.0T版本配备了197马力/320牛米的B48发动机，3.0T版本则配备了340马力/500牛米B58发动机，这两台车的动力系统跟宝马Z4 25i和Z4 M40i从型号到参数完全一致，匹配的变速箱也是宝马标志性的ZF 8AT。所以，你说这是牛魔王，你觉得铁扇公主会相信吗，要知道即便以前受制于“君子协定”的老款牛魔王也能做到280马力，而出口到海外市场的牛魔王则可以在原厂状态下达到320马力，这也是为什么很多人说丰田用将近30年的时间干了个寂寞。此外，扒一扒这代SUPRA的内饰就会发现，酷似“鸡腿”的电子档把、空调控制面板、车机控制器……都与宝马如出一辙，所以网上就有人推测，SUPRA除了发动机和变速箱，它的发动机管理系统、变速箱模块、空调和多媒体系统等等均来自宝马，甚至插上宝马的电脑就可以进行故障诊断和编程编码，活脱脱一台宝马车，以至于这代SUPRA与曾经的牛魔王已经没什么直接的关系了，SUPRA已死的说法其实也没错。但是，如果说这代SUPRA是Z4的换壳车，这个说法其实并不严谨。我们都知道，早期Z4的底盘，一直与同时期3系有直接关系，比如E85、E86、E89的Z4就是在E46 3系的底盘基础上“套用”的，但到了这代Z4，它的底盘就与这代G20 3系有了非常明显的区别，尤其是悬挂摆臂等主要部件，从成本角度来看，这种突然打破传统的做法是不划算的。其实主要原因就在于，这代Z4从立项之初，丰田的底盘团队就已参与进来，也就是说，宝马与丰田两家团队，共同完成了这代Z4与SUPRA的底盘架构，而不是宝马先研发，丰田再套用，虽然基础底盘架构依然是在G20 3系基础上二次开发而来的，但是悬挂部件都根据跑车需求做了重新设计，可以说是为Z4与SUPRA量身定制全新底盘、全新平台。有意思的是，宝马与丰田合作完成底盘架构之后就互相道别了，据说当年两车都在相同的测试场地进行测试，但是宝马的工程师不能开SUPRA，而丰田的工程师也摸不到Z4。.也就说，这两车虽然共享底盘架构和悬挂部件，但在后续调校上依然会有非常大的区别，驾驶感受和动态表现也会有明显不同，因为Z4的定位是软顶敞篷跑车，说的洋气一点，这车属于Roadster，目的就是能让你优雅地开蓬兜风；而SUPRA是更加硬核的纯种硬顶跑车，追求的是山路以及赛道中的操控。这个区别其实可以简单的参考一下保时捷718，哪怕是同属保时捷调校出来的车，软顶敞篷的718 Boxster和硬顶的718 Cayman开起来也会有点区别，更何况Z4和SUPRA还是两个不同团队进行调校，这就像是同样一种鱼给两个不同的厨师，一个做成了极度清淡的清蒸，另一个做成了咸到发齁的红烧。同时也是由于coupe与roadster在车身结构上的差异，所以SUPRA的车身刚性会远远优于Z4，毕竟Z4受制于敞篷导致刚性成为短板，当然敞篷机构自身的重量也会成为操控的累赘，而按照丰田的说法，SUPRA的白车身抗扭刚性已经超越了自家的传奇超跑LFA，而当年LFA的车身确实是可以大吹特吹一番的。更有意思的是，丰田为了延续“开不坏”的口碑，特地将宝马的B48和B58发动机运到日本进行耐久性测试，将未通过测试的零件全部打回宝马进行改进，看来丰田对有着漏油传统的宝马发动机不太放心啊……所以与其说这代SUPRA是“史上第一款会漏油的丰田”，不如说这代Z4是“史上第一款不会漏油的宝马”。如果单从一台跑车的角度来看SUPRA现在的所作所为，其实并没有什么错，但问题就出在这台车叫SUPRA。反观这代SUPRA，与其说它是曾经那台大马力牛魔王的换代车型，反倒是更像是早期Z4 coupe的精神传承，从上代E89 Z4开始，宝马便放弃了纯硬顶版本车型，改成了硬顶敞篷车型，到了这代更是直接变为软顶敞篷，说明从车型定位上就放弃了激烈驾驶，从而彻底丧失了竞争718 Cayman的能力，要知道曾经Z4的coupe和敞篷版本可以算是保时捷Cayman和Boxster的直接对手。当然如今SUPRA和Z4也足够聪明，一个做成硬顶跑车，一个做成软顶敞篷跑车，这当然是事先商量好的，以针对不同的消费群体，谁也抢不了他人的饭碗，就像保时捷718那样，Cayman作为一台中置后驱、驾控纯粹、主打性能的驾驶机器，而Boxster则作为一台有一定驾驶乐趣但更注重腔调的小跑车，来满足客户多元化的需求。总的来说，这代SUPRA确实不算一台纯正的JDM车型，但也绝对没有别人说的那么不堪，相反如果你不戴着JDM的有色眼镜去看它，或者无视之前牛魔王的辉煌，也不在意所谓的代际传承关系，那么这台SUPRA其实是一台非常棒的跑车。SUPRA这车真的不如以前了吗？既然聊到了SUPRA，那自然要聊一聊改装相关的话题，毕竟之前老款SUPRA能获得“牛魔王”的别称，这可不是浪得虚名的，那么现在这台SUPRA还能不能重现往日的荣光，咱们还是得从之前著名的2JZ发动机开始说起。时间拉回到1990年8月，那时候JZ系列引擎正式发布，其实也就是1JZ和2JZ，而1JZ之所以出名，其实是因为它有个2.5L版本的1JZ-GTE，也只有这个版本的发动机是雅马哈负责设计的，雅马哈在当时以1JZ-GE为基础进行强化，进而做出了两个发动机版本，主要区别就是有没有VVT-i，也就是智能可变气门正时。虽然这两个版本的发动机都因为“君子协定”被做到了280马力，但扭力输出特性完全不同，所以那时候日本国内玩车界只认1JZ-GTE是高性能机器，因为他们大多数玩儿的都是山路和赛道，根本不需要那么高的峰值马力，这一点看过头文字D的朋友都知道，里面的车子其实最大马力都不算高，以至于这台1JZ-GTE发动机在当年都没怎么做过出口，都被日本的本土市场消化掉了，而2JZ-GTE则随着SUPRA出口到了海外市场，也走向了世界。虽然2JZ-GTE发动机在当年不怎么受日本玩家的待见，但是远在大洋彼岸的美国玩家却觉得“真香”，原因总结下来就一句话：“便宜、耐用、改装潜力大”，这也是为何2JZ-GTE被称为一代神机，但是，让这颗机头成为神话开端的却不是美国公司，而是来自日本的HKS。日本HKS这个公司其实很有意思，创始人团队出自丰田，而下面的研发团队也吸收（挖墙脚）了不少来自丰田、SARD、YAMAHA的前员工，所以他们对于日系车的发动机可以说了如指掌，你别看HKS现在什么都做，但当时HKS的主力产品却是涡轮套件，主攻的市场是0-400米加速赛，换言之，他们那时候的主要竞争对手，都是一众玩儿直线赛的美国公司。既然要和美国人竞争，自然是要拿出看家本领的，反观那时候的美国市场，美国佬自己的东西虽然也很不错，但是玩JDM的车主都追求“原汁原味”，很多人都觉得如果不去用日本本土的改装件，就不能称作JDM。就在这样的时代背景之下，那时候的HKS针对2JZ-GTE这台发动机，推出了涡轮升级套件和周边控制配件，比如：V-Pro电脑、电子增压控制器（俗称“电子水喉制”）、中冷器等等，并且价格卖的也不算贵，可以说是“良心产品”。到了2020年的东京改装展的时候，日本专门跑D1大奖赛的著名漂移赛车手“齐藤太吾”的座驾被拉到现场进行展出，虽然这台车的外壳是新款的SUPRA，可是发动机依旧使用的是2JZ-GTE发动机，并且这台赛车取了个名字叫“GR SUPRA MONSTER EDITION”，其中，“GR”代表丰田的御用改装部门，“SUPRA”就是丰田这台车的名字，后面的“MONSTER EDITION”则有两层含义，一层意思是代表这台车是齐藤太吾的座驾，因为齐藤太吾在D1赛事圈里被人称作“怪兽”，另一层含义则是这台车的性能也属于怪兽级别。而这台赛车上的2JZ-GTE发动机，配上HKS出品的3.4L强化套件（也就是把原来3.0L的2JZ-GTE进行扩缸和强化），同时把之前的原厂涡轮拆掉，换上了HKS出品的GTIII-4R涡轮套件，并且通过取代电脑进行ECU等方面的设定，最终动力数据做到了800马力/883牛米。所以，为什么过去很多人把老款SUPRA称作牛魔王，就是因为这台车的改装潜力实在太大了，即使不去追求那么夸张的1000匹甚至1200匹马力，也可以轻松达到700匹以上的动力。而到了现在新款的SUPRA，其实所搭载宝马出品的那颗B58发动机潜力也不小，并且科技含量更高，发动机技术也更先进，之前美国的“Papadakis Racing”就用这颗机头做到了1033.9马力/1231牛米的数据，并且操刀的正是这个Papadakis Racing的创始人，也是专攻美国D级方程式的机械大师Stephan Papadakis，并且这台车改出来也是为了去参加美国的D级方程式比赛（也就是漂移方程式）。换言之，如果你想达到这种“变态级”的数据，其实无论是之前的2JZ-GTE也好，还是现在的B58发动机也罢，都可以做到差不多的参数，因为赛用改装是可以也有必要去追求极致的动力，如果以日常的性能改装来看，现在的B58机头在BM3程序的加持下，一阶程序做到突破400马力/600牛米很轻松，二阶程序配合周边硬件可以突破440马力/680牛米；而2.0T版本的B48B20B机头其实和宝马现款430i是一样的，只是人为的限制了马力输出，所以做完BM3一阶程序基本上可以达到240马力，如果上到二阶程序的话，配合硬件基本上可以突破270马力。所以，现在的新款SUPRA的改装潜力不能说比以前差，只能说它的动力改装能提升到哪种程度，完全取决于这颗宝马的动力总成，能被这些主打动力改装的大厂推到什么样的高度，有多少赛车技术愿意进行下放。并且，现在基于宝马的底盘做出来的新款SUPRA，其实相比于过去的老款车型而言，在操控性上有了质的飞跃，最起码不会再像过去的SUPRA那样“直道王、弯道亡”，对于喜欢走街、跑山、下赛道人而言，现款的SUPRA更像是一个多面手，所以实际上新款的SUPRA从综合性能上来看，是远胜于过去旧款车型的。至于HELLAFLUSH这一类不以动力作为取向，而是以姿态作为主导的改装风格……你用一台SUPRA改出来，除了你知道它是一台改装SUPRA之外，还有别的用处吗？为什么说SUPRA在国内的定价非常离谱？虽然SUPRA是一台很不错的车，但以目前的情况来看，SUPRA在国内的定价确实有些离谱，我们从JDM的“对立面”德系性能圈子里，挑出两款非常有代表性、同时国内也能买到的车型，一起与SUPRA做个中美差价对比。首先是奥迪S3，这台车大家都很熟悉了，德系钢炮代表作之一，也是“购置税秒超跑”的主力军。这台车在美国起价43000美元（约合28.1万人民币），国内19款定价36.38万，按照停产前的行情，优惠后在32万左右，但看裸车价的差别，中美差价在4万左右。而SUPRA 2.0T版本美国起价43090美元（28.2万人民币），很“巧合”的比奥迪S3贵了90美金，并且美版的2.0T SUPRA还是255马力的高功率发动机，到国内反倒阉割成197马力，并且卖到了49.6万的高价，相当于20万，算上终端市场加价8-10万，中美差价达到了30万左右。其次是奥迪S4，这也是6缸B级性能车的当家花旦，美国起价49900美元（约合32.6万人民币），国内20款定价46.88万，不算购置税的话，中美差价在14万左右，毕竟国内对大排量车型征税较多。而SUPRA 3.0T版本美国起价51090美元（33.4万人民币），又很“巧合”的与奥迪S4差不多，更重要的是，美版的SUPRA 3.0T竟然有382马力，也是高功率发动机，到国内再一次惨遭阉割，在动力变成340马力的同时，价格却卖到了62.6万，算上终端市场的加价，使得中美差价接近40万。哪怕我们不去和奥迪这种本身性价比就挺高的车子去做对比，就拿SUPRA去和同根同源的宝马Z4对比，你会发现美版的Z4 30i比SUPRA 2.0T版本贵了6700美元（4.4万人民币），美版的Z4 M40i比SUPRA 3.0T版本贵了12610美元（8.2万人民币），换言之Z4的价位几乎高了一个量级。但是，到了国内以后，即使这俩兄弟的动力都被砍了一刀，但价格仍然保持一致，以至于在国外价格低于Z4的SUPRA摇身一变成了“高富帅”，甚至SUPRA 2.0T版本还要比Z4更贵一点，所以这是Z4在国内的定价太“亲民”，还是SUPRA定价太离谱呢？首先，丰田是玩营销的高手，SUPRA作为一台自带JDM情怀的跑车，丰田知道这是一次非常好的机会，利用所谓的非官方小道消息，也就是广为流传的“300台配额”，不但可以制造加价话题、炒高价格，还能免费扩大知名度，这是投广告都达不到的效果，即便之后出点什么事儿，丰田作为官方也可以出来撇清关系，表示自己没有搞限量，那都是谣言，再声明一下加价属于市场行为或者经销商行为，然后象征性的做出一些警告或者惩罚，甚至直接冷处理，到最后不了了之。其次，丰田其实心里很清楚，能以这个价格去买SUPRA的人虽然不会多，但也远远不止300人，所以丰田消费的就是国内残存的JDM情怀，毕竟之前就连37895美元（24.8万人民币）的思域Type R都能在国内炒到70万天价，关键还有人买，正儿八经的中规SUPRA怎么就不能卖个高价了？最后，丰田这一手“又当又立”玩的确实很溜，看上去决定SUPRA国内定价的是供求关系，实际上能否满足供求关系的关键点还是在丰田，但凡丰田敢不玩饥饿营销，让SUPRA像宝马Z4那样不限量供应，你觉得这车敢定这个价格吗？所以，丰田现在就是吃准了消费者“非他不可”的心态，只要是热销的车型都给你玩一手“供不应求”，然后自己躺在那儿开开心心的数钱，看消费者争的头破血流。除了SUPRA，同价位我们还能买到哪些纯种跑车那么，现在除了SUPRA之外，在同价位中我们还能买到哪些纯种的跑车，请注意是纯种跑车，不是什么C43 COUPE、S5 COUPE、M440i这些基于轿车打造的两门车。首先，比这台车便宜点的BRZ、86、MX-5基本可以说再见了，至少在目前的情况下来看，想要买到这些极其亲民的小跑车，就只能去二手车市场讨价还价，要不然就只能去看看美系车，只是2.3T野马的性能放在今天确实差点意思，而5.0L的野马GT直到现在也没有国6排放的新车。其次，就是和SUPRA同根同源，但是调教不同的宝马Z4，其实在我看来，与其追求所谓的情怀去买一台SUPRA，还真不如去买一台Z4，而且Z4现在价格不仅有优惠，还能敞篷，这骚气程度难道不比SUPRA来的更好？而且别忘了这可是蓝天白云标的宝马哦。最后，就是价格比SUPRA稍高的跑车，包含了保时捷718和捷豹F-TYPE，现在这两台车的行情都非常坚挺，基本上都没有什么优惠，所以不要再黑人家捷豹是“7折豹”了，现在你如果想买一台最新款的3.0T F-TYPE回来，能原价裸提都已经算商家让利了。所以，现在的SUPRA其实切的价格区间很准，这个价格向下已经没有什么纯种跑车能够选择，而和比他贵的车型相比，车辆性能也非常的能打，毕竟SUPRA 2.0T版本49.6万元的指导价正好卡在福特野马（指导价36.98万起）和捷豹F TYPE 2.0T版本（指导价58.2万起）之间，即便是3.0T版本的SUPRA，官方指导价也只是定了一个62.6万，比宝马Z4 M40i的63.38万指导价要低一些，比F-TYPE 3.0T（指导价79.8万起）这种配备六缸发动机的车要便宜十来万。当然，很多人吐槽的其实并不是这台车的指导价，而是现在这台车实际成交价竟然多出了8-10万，虽然我们一方面不支持这种加价销售的行为，但是另一方面，在市场经济的环境下，物以稀为贵一直是不变的道理，丰田那里有意的在控制货量，那市场上就会容易出现僧多粥少的问题，这就跟限量的球鞋一样，加价只是正常的市场反馈，毕竟钱在自己手里，可以选择不买。JDM当年为什么火，如今是不是死翘翘了总的来说，JDM虽然足够情怀，但我总觉得现在还喊着JDM情怀的人，确实有些“矫揉造作”。首先，咱们国家在90年代JDM车型的辉煌时刻，根本没有多少人能真正接触到所谓的JDM车型，更不要说去改装、跑山、下赛道了，这是时代的大背景，而现在喊着JDM的车迷，很多都是在后来通过向前追溯的方式去了解到、认知到JDM的文化，并没有多少人真正的去体验过纯种的JDM车型。其次，JDM的核心在于汽车改装，换言之就是一台底子不错的车给到你，然后通过你的双手或者改装技师的双手，配合各家厂商推出的改装件，从而打造出专属于你的车辆，然后你可以开着这台独一无二的车子在路上飞驰人生……但是，汽车改装在咱们国内一直都属于违法行为，除非你根本不上牌也不上路开，每次都用板车拖着去赛道，否则就是会被认定为“非法改装”。再者，现在所谓的JDM已经没有几台真正的性能车了，之前日本所谓的“国宝级跑车”，除了GTR还是保留现款在售之外，NSX已经变成了混动超跑，转子系列从RX8停产之后就再无音讯，SUPRA现在也成了Z4换壳……尽管还有诸如86/BRZ、370Z、STI、EVO、思域TYPE R之类的车子在国内流通，可是这些车要么价格被炒的飞起，要么根本无法和同价位的性能车在绝对性能上进行匹敌。最后，在JDM的历史当中，不论是SUPRA还是当年那些日系性能车、跑车的辉煌，主要就是因为“性价比高”，你别管后期改装要花多少钱，至少这车在买来的时候就是便宜，就是改装潜力大，就是改装件多，而且想崩直线崩直线，想玩操控玩操控，怎么玩都取决于你，所以很能满足当时年轻人那种“屌丝逆袭”的快感，这一点和现在玩儿VAG钢炮的差不多，你别管我车子贵不贵，你看我崩不崩你就完了，可是到了现在的情况下，“情怀”两个字最终都变成了“钱”，经典的JDM车型越来越贵，逐渐变为有钱人的收藏品，看看之前二手市场里标价168万的GTR R32，你就知道想弄一台经典的JDM车型难度有多大了。所以，JDM已死并不是一句危言耸听的话，至少在当下这个阶段，想在国内好好的去玩JDM车型确实不是一件容易的事情，我们且不说JDM车辆的价格，或者是不是还有足够纯粹的JDM车型，即便我们只是把JDM爱好者们所痴迷的日本改装件，单拎出来去和欧美品牌的产品进行对比，去看看改装件的性能和相关的配套改装件，你会发现他们早已经被欧美品牌超越，现在日本品牌能拿出手的，无非就是所谓的“匠人精神”以及品牌背后的故事，可是故事不能当饭吃，匠人的双手也不会比数控机床更精准，不是么？音频图文更新在订阅号：百车全说每期抽三条留言，每人赠168元的“芥末绿”燃油添加剂一瓶点击订阅，每周三，周六更新会有提醒新听友可以搜索：百车全说2014，百车全说2015，百车全说2016，往期300多个小时的节目可供收听

The Jaguar F-Type R might not have changed much in the years since it made its first appearance in 2013, but that lack of change is what makes this 2021 model so special. In its R-trim, this F-Type moves down the line by way of a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 making 575 hp and enough noise to let your neighbors know that you love cars. On this episode of Quick Spin, Wes Raynal hops behind the wheel of this two-seat Jaguar and puts it through its paces. Raynal guides you through this quick Jag during the walk-around portion and gives you details about the features of this F-Type. After that, Raynal takes you along for the ride while he reviews the car in real-time. Peppered in between is Raynal talking with host Wesley Wren to elaborate on what he said in those segments.

Welcome to new PRODUCER GRANTON SMITH Welcome to new PRODUCER KEITH A KLIPSTEIN POLESTAR 2 "What we have in effect here is a slightly high-riding, five-door, all-electric hatchback that plays the role both of mass-market leader and rival disruptor to the Tesla Model 3. The Polestar 2 will initially be launched in a single model, that’s available with or without an optional £5000 Performance Pack. Prices starts at £49,990 not including the £3000 government grant, and comes with a very long standard equipment list including a full active safety suite, a glass roof, heated and electric seats front and back, a premium sound system, active LED lights all around, 19-inch alloys , the Polestar 2 will be launched with a 400bhp electric powertrain, all-wheel drive and single high-standard specification in order to rival mid-level Model 3s." says evo.co.uk: "The model we’re driving today includes the Performance Pack, which brings high-end Öhlins dampers and a chunky Brembo brake package to the party, amongst other equipment upgrades, but the question of what the Polestar 2 actually is here is less relevant than the big one facing it.

Covering the Model Y heat pump was a suggestion made by Sandy Munro during his teardown of the Tesla SUV crossover. According to TSLA supporter @hwfeinstein, a Tesla Mobile Service ranger came to his house to retrofit his new Model Y with an acoustic blanket." reports Tesmanian: "it seems that Tesla has started retrofitting Model Y heat pumps with acoustic blankets if requested by owners. In a follow-up comment, the Model Y owner referenced someone whose Tesla crossover was already equipped with an acoustic blanket. So it appears that acoustic blankets now come standard with newer Model Y units. So people who received one of the Model Y vehicles from the Fremont Factory’s first batch may need to request an acoustic blanket retrofit " TESLA HIRES GUY BEHIND APPLE PAY TO LEAD SUPERCHARGER EXPERIENCE. WHAT YOU WANT TO IMPROVE? "Tesla has hired the product manager behind Apple Pay to lead the Supercharger experience. Yesterday, Michael Rihani announced on LinkedIn that he left his position as senior product manager for Apple Card and Apple Cash at the Cupertino, California, company to join Tesla as the new product manager for “Supercharger User Experience and Strategy.”" writes electrek: "With strong increases in sales in many markets, Tesla owners are experiencing some long wait times at Supercharger stations in places like Los Angeles and the Bay Area." https://electrek.co/2020/07/08/tesla-hires-guy-apple-pay-lead-supercharger-experience/ JAGUAR EV-TYPE: TRADEMARK FILING HINTS AT ELECTRIC F-TYPE SUCCESSOR "Jaguar has registered to trademark the name Jaguar EV-Type, further fuelling speculation that the brand’s next sports car will be electric. The trademark, which is still pending according to the WIPO global brand database, was first applied for in mid-February." reports Autocar: "The name EV-Type appears to be a reference to the iconic Jaguar E-Type sports car of the 1960s and 1970s. This, along with the fact that the only Jaguar model still using the ‘Type’ suffix is the F-Type, adds considerable weight to the assumption. One stumbling block would be the need to spend big on developing a bespoke platform for an electric sports car, although this issue could be helped if Jaguar Land Rover extends its budding collaboration with BMW." https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/jaguar-ev-type-trademark-filing-hints-electric-f-type-successor LOTUS PLANS TO OBLITERATE THE BUGATTI CHIRON "The Lotus Evija, the 2,000-horsepower electric flagship that will pioneer the next-generation of sports cars from the automaker, is not targeting low-speed acceleration. Lotus wants its car to beat the supercars where they thrive—closing in on 200 mph as fast as possible." says Jalopnik: "Gavin Kershaw, test driver for Lotus, spoke to Top Gear about the work going into the electric Evija supercar, and the sort of performance benchmarks it’s being compared to. Apparently, Lotus is really concerned with destroying Bugatti’s 0-186 mph acceleration in just 12.4 seconds and they claim they can shave the time all the way down to just 9 seconds." He said: "“I’ve driven some of the Formula One cars - even the T125 with 1,000 horsepower-per-tonne - and they’re quite brutal. This has got such strength and growth – it’s a bit like going up the runway where you’re pushed back in your seat and held there.

It’s a diesel PHEV with a maximum claimed electric range of 99 km (61 miles) thanks to a 31.2 kWh battery pack.

Gegensätze ziehen sich an. Wenn man sich den Jaguar I-Pace und den F-Type SVR anschaut, dann sind das sicherlich die beiden gegensätzlichsten Autos die Jaguar zur Zeit im Angebot hat. Es war nicht geplant beide Autos gleichzeitig im Test zu haben. Natürlich waren wir begeistert als sich die Möglichkeit ergeben hat diese auf den ersten Blick scheinbar so grundverschieden Autos miteinander zu vergleichen. In den Shownotes gibt es wie immer einiges an Bildern, Videos, Link zu Mobilegeeks und ein Behind-The-Scenes Video https://markkreuzer.de/blog/vergleich-jaguar-i-pace-mit-f-type-svr-wie-apfel-mit-birnen?
Jaguar has finally given the F-Type a facelift! Making its' debut to the public in 2012, the F-Type has always been a "muscular" type of car that is loud, tail-happy, and fun. The all new 2020 F-Type features a brand new tasteful look and...wait for it...a power increase! Listen now to hear the details! New Weekly Episodes Drop @ 7pm every Monday, Wednesday, & Friday!

In September, Jaguar opened up a state-of-the-art design studio in the UK. For the first time in the company's 84-year history, the entire design team assembled in a single location. The studio is more than 12,000 square meters, doubling the previous footprint. It's enough room for the approximately 280 designers, with backgrounds in everything from fashion and watchmaking to sports and gaming, to simultaneously work on 20 full-size clay models. This week, the company unveiled the new 2021 Jaguar F-Type, a new high-end sports car that starts at a little more than $70,000 US. The F-TYPE R, which starts around $101,800, has a 5.0-liter supercharged V8 that generates 575 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. The 'R' accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and has an electronically-limited max speed of 186 mph. Jaguar used the launch, as well as a partnership with Hot Wheels, to show off the new design studio from a unique perspective.As part of the partnership, Hot Wheels created a 1:64-scale model of F-TYPE and built a 761-foot long custom track that stretched through the studio. With 25 loops and 55 boosters, the track traveled over various workspaces -- it even drove through its life-sized counterpart.The designers from Jaguar and Hot Wheels used the CAD data from the real car to create a precise 3D-printed recreation. The Hot Wheels team also recreated the Velocity Blue color and even hand-painted the F-TYPE badge on the back. The custom-built track was designed and developed under the tutelage of Official Hot Wheels master track designer Paul Schmid. The tiny F-TYPE reaches scale speeds of up to 300 mph.The real version will be on sale early next year; the Hot Wheels version won't be on the market until November 2020.
I went to my local monthly car show, Machines and Macchiatos at Harbord which supports the Care Bears and Cure Brain Cancer charities which usually has a couple of lovely old Jaguars on display. To show the old and the new together, I borrowed the latest F-Type Jaguar. We parked it next to a beautiful yellow E type owned by a bloke called Murray. Some of the conversation about his car included the following: DB: You're six foot five inches tall. Can you get into your car easily? MMcA: It is the convertible. The top down makes it really easy. I still am a bit large with it. If you look at the car it's actually missing the sun visors. That was just impeding my vision while I was driving it so I took those off but when the roof's up I basically had the seat further back. It's like any short and low car to get into for someone of my size but it's I can do that. It's quite enough room for me to drive it. The interesting thing with my car is that it's a 72 [model] that's when it was delivered to Australia … February 1972. It's a little bit longer I think it's something like eight or nine inches longer for someone of my size you need that in the cabin. The series one the series two, I can't give in that is too tight for me. DB: You can see that very much with the doors. Can't you. MMcA: Yeah. That's why you notice the difference in size. The doors on those earlier models are much shorter DB: You can see that very much with the doors. Can't you? MMcA: Yeah. That's where you notice the difference in size. The doors on those earlier models are much shorter. You can see that, if you parked my next door as well. There's also some other things you'll notice when you see the series three and that's the flared guards they're actually popped the guards a little bit more as well. [00:02:42][14.3] DB: The early the E-Type Jaguars, and I believe Sir William Lyons even regretted this, was that the tyres didn't fill the wheel wells and they tended to look a little bit gawky in that regard. I think in the later ones, it looks a more complete package. MMcA: I think that's right. Well of course the technology in the tyres has changed so much in time and even in 72 I think the tyres are very different to what you get in the 60s. So it does very much fill the guards. If you look at mine it also doesn't have the wires on it. I have the wires at home and I drive with the Prolites just because it's so much simpler if you're driving more often than I do. If you're driving around the streets you don't get the problems you get with wire wheels. DB: Bumping and things? MMcA: I found that if you hit a pothole or something they go out of balance and you'd have them worked on again. DB: Have you had other Jaguars? MMcA: No I haven't actually. I've had lots of different cars but never a Jaguar. I never thought I'd get one of these. I think I was very fortunate to find it. DB: What was the passion? Why? MMcA: I wanted a nice car. A classic car of some sort. I actually was looking for an American car, Corvette in particular, but I don't fit in the Corvette. And I never thought I'd be able to find or afford one of those. I think the stars aligned for me and it just came up. It was a good car. The lady that was selling, she had actually knocked back a couple of people that came to look at it because she didn't like the people and she wouldn't let them buy her husband's car because her husband had passed away. And we clicked. We got on very, very well and she allowed me to buy it. DB: Was this a car of your youth? Did you lust after this car when you were young? MMcA: Oh I don't think anyone of my age didn't last after an e-type. DB: Murray Lovely to talk to you. MMcA: Thank you fantastic time. We sat in the F Type and had a chat. You may hear some cars go past in the background. I began by asking Murray what model his car was.

In the first GTN Podcast, Alex, Liam and Bentley discuss Jaguar's new mid-engined hybrid supercar called the J-Type. Specifically, they discuss whether building a supercar is the right way to go for Jaguar, especially if it replaces the existing F-Type. And there's an intriguing possibility in the J-Type's future. Next, the boys talk about an astonishing barn find. We won't ruin what it is, but it's safe to say that you'll be extremely jealous. Up next, they discuss a new Chinese decoration in the shape of a traffic light with not 3, not even 5, but over 20 lights on a single pole. Confused? Not nearly as confused as they are! this leads them on to pot holes and the ingenious ways people try to cover them up (or bring attention to them). The final discussion of the episode revolves around the German racetrack, the Nurburgring. If Alex, Liam, and Bentley were given £5,000 to buy something to race at the Green Hell, what would they choose and why. We think you'll be surprised with the outcome!

Bec and Rach talk about their dream machine - the Jaguar F-TYPE R. We sent the girls out to road test the 2015 Jaguar F-TYPE R and it appears the men of Sydney really had trouble containing themselves. We are still undecided whether it was the topless convertible Jaguar with the breathtaking V8 grumble, or Bec and Rach that attracted all the date offers and marriage proposals! Either way they had a memorable in a standout vehicle. To hear Bec and Rach go weak at the knees about the Jaguar F-TYPE R just hit play or download...
We chat with Jaguar Australia PR man James Scrimshaw. Has Jaguar ever had a better line-up of vehicles? We don’t think so. From the popular Jaguar XF to excitement machines like the XJR and XFR-S, Jaguar dealerships just about have a vehicle for everyone. Then of course there’s an all-new Jaguar XE about to arrive, a new SUV in the works and how can we forget the recently updated Jaguar F-Type?! Behind the Wheel hosts Peter Hitchener and Chris Miller have been getting about in the new all-wheel drive F-Type and thought it was a good time to chat about the 2015 Jaguar line-up with Jaguar Land Rover Australia head of PR, James Scrimshaw…

Matt has just returned from a trip to Monaco to watch the grand prix with his father, Jeff gives us the gift of ridiculous Nurburgring stories, we discuss the Corvette factory in Bowling Green Kentucky, the new Z06, the general debacle that was the Camaro launch event and some quality time was spent with Jaguar and Range Rover in their newest F Type and Sport variants.
In questa puntata di Ruote in Pista: Jaguar F-Type: Piacerebbe anche a...Diabolik. Raffinatezza e linee seducenti, ma anche efficacia e prestazioni, soprattutto in pista. Erede della D-Type che trinonfò a Le Mans per un quinquennio e della E-Type, ancora oggi una icona di design e stile, la F-Type appaga tutti i sensi. Grazie all’elettronica, può trasformarsi in un gattone cittadino che fa le fusa..o in un vero giaguaro furioso. Una magia? Forse, di certo a noi la F-Type Coupé ci ha “stregato”. World Rally Championship: l’Alsazia si conferma...”terra di campioni”: degno erede del “cannibale” Loeb, con il successo nella combattutissima penultima tappa del Mondiale che si è disputata in Catalogna, Ogier si è confermato per il secondo anno consecutivo Campione del Mondo. Alle sue spalle il mai domo Latvala, compagno di scuderia su VW Polo. Terzo gradino del podio per Hirvonen su Ford Fiesta. World Endurance Championship: anche a Shanghai “comanda” Toyota che piazza in modo ancor più netto che nella gara di Fuji le sue vetture guidate da Davidson-Buemi e Wurz-Nakajima-Sarrazin, rispettivamente al primo e secondo posto. A podio per la prima volta la Porsche di Dumas-Jani-Lieb. Peugeot & Friends: una storia che parte da lontano... Appuntamento tradizionale di Peugeot con i suoi fornitori e la stampa.

Le News Autolink Duster Oroch Concept Disegnata dal centro stile Renault sudamericano di San Paolo, Duster Oroch rappresenta un’anticipazione di un pick-up a cinque posti che dovrebbe entrare in produzione di serie. Il prototipo è ispirato al mondo degli sport acquatici come il surf, il windsurf ed il kitesurf e riprende soluzioni stilistiche già adottate sulla D-Cross esposta a San Paolo due anni fa. Pensato per il tempo libero e la vita all’aria aperta, Duster Oroch è proposto in una colorazione bianco satinato di grande effetto, equipaggiato con barre portatutto e tetto panoramico. Detroit Electric SP-01 Dopo una lunga attesa, Detroit Electric, l’iconico marchio nel settore dei veicoli elettrici fondato nel 1906 e rinato nel 2008, ha svelato il design esterno di serie della SP:01. Una pura elettrica sportiva a due posti che la Casa si sta avviando a produrre in serie dal prossimo anno in Gran Bretagna. Disponibile in tiratura limitata, la SP:01 sarà la più veloce sportiva elettrica venduta in Asia, Europa e Nord America. La silhouette da coupé sostituisce gli archi che caratterizzavano i lati dei finestrini posteriori del prototipo presentato al Salone di Shanghai del 2013. Il motore elettrico consente una velocità di 249 km/h. Suzuki Swift Toro Edition Per suggellare il rinnovo della sponsorizzazione della squadra del Torino, Suzuki ha presentato un’inedita versione Toro Edition della piccola Swift, con una scenografica livrea bicolore che al grigio metallizzato della carrozzeria contrappone il tetto, gli specchi retrovisori e gli stripes su cofano, baule e paraurti nel classico colore granata. La Swift Toro Edition è ordinabile esclusivamente sul web store Suzuki a 16.900 €. Damigelle di questa speciale versione, la grintosissima Swift Sport Web Race, anch’essa disponibile sulla piattaforma e-commerce di Suzuki, il crossover compatto S-Cross che per l’occasione è stato proposto nell’inedita colorazione bianca/rossa con lo stemma del Torino FC sul cofano ed il piccolo inarrestabile Jimny nella versione limited edition Ari. 2 milioni di Nissan Qashqai venduti Nuovo record produttivo per Nissan. Mai nella sua storia era arrivata a due milioni di unità prodotte di un unico modello in meno di otto anni di carriera. Il primato si deve al boom della Qashqai che dal dicembre del 2006 ad oggi ha raggiunto il prestigioso traguardo dei due milioni di esemplari costruiti presso lo stabilimento britannico di Sunderland. Il due milionesimo esemplare di colore rosso è destinato ad un cliente britannico. Ad oggi, l’85% delle Qashqai assemblate a Sunderland è stato esportato in 132 mercati, compresi Congo e Qatar. La Casa giapponese ha investito oltre 500 milioni di sterline per ammodernare una fabbrica che dà lavoro a circa 11 mila addetti e che garantisce un interessante indotto a tutta l’area circostante. Qashqai si sta così sempre più avvicinando al record di Micra assemblata in 2.368.704 esemplari nel periodo tra il 1992 e il 2010 nello stesso impianto di Sunderland. Jeep partner dei “Salotti del Gusto” 2014 Jeep si conferma anche questa stagione partner di “Salotti del Gusto”, l’evento ideato da Raffaella Corsi che abbina enogastronomia, test drive e lifestyle. La presentazione è avvenuta presso l’Hotel Principe di Savoia di Milano nel corso di una esclusiva serata. La rassegna autunnale dei “Salotti” vedrà ancora una volta riuniti i migliori produttori vinicoli e agroalimentari, chef, operatori di settore, esperti e appassionati per sperimentare nuovi sapori e tendenze, lasciarsi guidare in affascinanti esperienze di gusto sensoriali, celebrando il meglio del “Made in Italy”. Ospiti speciali, lo psichiatra e psicoterapeuta Raffaele Morelli, gli chef Luigi Taglienti e Hirohiko Skoda, la scrittrice Roberta Schira, il critico enogastronomico televisivo Davide Oltolini, gli Chef Bruno Barbieri, Davide Oldani e il celebre sommelier Luca Martini. L’appuntamento è per il 29 e 30 novembre a Mogliano Veneto, nella splendida cornice di Villa Coldumer dove sarà anche possibile provare l’intera gamma Jeep.
In questa puntata di Ruote in Pista: Jaguar F-Type: Piacerebbe anche a...Diabolik. Raffinatezza e linee seducenti, ma anche efficacia e prestazioni, soprattutto in pista. Erede della D-Type che trinonfò a Le Mans per un quinquennio e della E-Type, ancora oggi una icona di design e stile, la F-Type appaga tutti i sensi. Grazie all’elettronica, può trasformarsi in un gattone cittadino che fa le fusa..o in un vero giaguaro furioso. Una magia? Forse, di certo a noi la F-Type Coupé ci ha “stregato”.
