Picked up another set of wheels for my car. This time in the 10" flavor instead of my current 11" setup.

I had those wheels on another car. Love them. Had I bought new wheels of my choosing, I'd have those on the Supra, too.

I have the same wheels but in bronze now. Definately love them haha. Figured this color would be a good change for the driver wheels/tires. Now I just have to decide on a decent tire for street use.....

It’s the Garmin Mobile app. You can also do things like compare laps with others.

I'm sure your experience and skill plays a large role in that reliability too.
Their wasn't much colab tbf.

It's Toyota body panels on a bmw.

The B58 is BMW's 3rd or (I think) 4th iteration of the turbo I6 engines, and it shares architecture with the diesel I6's, and the trans is a ZF, and then you have Bosch electronics.

I don't dislike BMW, so that's not necessarily a problem for me. If the new M2 weighed less and had an actual instrument cluster*, I'd be interested in it.

Toyota is sticking their neck out by putting their badge on it and selling it to their customers.

I get what you mean though, you need to be geared up for BMW to work on this thing.

*I'm not a fan of the long screen across the dash.

No WAY was that car getting dirty. 🤣
I made quite the mess when I had to cut the hole into the hood of my Evo.

It was more about avoiding the aluminum dust/shavings from scratching everything when I went to wipe/blast it off the paint. Plus the plastic sheets are cheap and easy to put over the car anyway so why create extra things to do in my life? :P

I will be awaiting your data before I pull the trigger on one. Hopefully it accomplishes everything you imagine.
