    Toyota Supra Engineer Thinks It Will Achieve 7:40 ‘Ring Time

    Yes the Toyota Supra is kind of a big deal so we will probably talk about it a lot this year but amid the storm of details about transmissions, engines and design, one figure has been conspicuously absent: a lap time at the Nurburgring.

    There is actually a very good reason for that because Tetsuya Tada, chief engineer on the project, told Road&Track that the car has not actually lapped the infamous circuit yet.

    “We haven’t had an official time attack yet,” he told the magazine, suggesting the car’s 155 mph (250 km/h) speed limiter could cause problems on the long Nurburgring back straight.

    “One day, perhaps, we cut the speed limiter and try the time attack,” he went on.

    “But even just driving it as it is, it’s really fast. On the old course, it’s very easy to break eightsโ€”7:50, 7:40. It will do that easily.”

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye ๐Ÿ˜‰ 

It pulls properly hard, doesnโ€™t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
