Toyota and BMW have finalized their agreement to develop a sports car platform together.

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.

at least both cars will be authentic to both brands.
it's likely just the platform which is shared along with some tech.
thankfully it wont be a BRZ and FR-S case. more original here.
