This story on "badge engineering" is quite interesting even for non petrol heads and comes to the conclusion one often comes to when real science and research meets rumours, uneducated opinions and red herrings.

The thing that chaps my ass is that the Supra has EU particulate filters for the worldwide market whereas BMW omitted them for North America and other regions, resulting in 13% more HP. I'm sure it'll be a fine car and I've been following the project for a long time, but it's just one of those little things you can't help but notice, like a giant mole on a really attractive lady or something.
