Wait, so you sold the MKIV and got a MKV? I thought you didn’t like the MKV?

They were mutually exclusive events. I sold the MKIV to a friend of a friend for stupid $$$ with one phone call. Been in the community 2 decades, owned/built 5 MKIV, exceeded all my goals so was time to move on. The disco parts situation was taking a lot of the fun out of it anyway.

The MKV was an unplanned impulse buy. Stumbled across a new tuneable 2021 and figured why the hell not. Still not a big fan but it was a safe money purchase in today's wack-ass market.

I see. My brother has seen fantastic results with his build. It’s crazy how little effort it takes to make big power with the new platform. Any plans on the first mods?

Wasn't me! I don't drive any of the cars I care about after dark during the rut.. deer.fucking.everywhere. Have had several close calls recently and my wife even hit a deer in one of our prior MKIV day before Halloween some years back. :nono:
Hah, I don't blame you! That really sucks.

So many Supras around lately.

Mods were delivered before the title arrived..! ?

I've been following along with the mod/aftermarket progression since day 1 and the potential is undeniable. I enjoy tracking the progression of stock to basic bolt-on to beyond and this is a great platform for that. I'm just not in love with it enough (yet - hopefully) to make the leap into a big build, though.

Sold the Supra for an M2 Competition, and have a few mods hanging around that I never installed.

MST v2 Intake (retail $534)
Verus heat shield (for 6-port 2021+) (retail $160) -- SOLD
Rexspeed v1 - painted white (retail $540)

If you're local and are interested in anything listed (again, all brand new), PM me an offer - ready to make some good deals to clear some space!

What’s up team MKV NC! Happy to join the party, picked up an A91 after looking for one for quite a while. Going in for PPF in a couple of weeks so not really driving it yet. Any other Refractions in the CLT area? I cannot believe how good this car looks in person, i just finished a full paint correction on it and it’s unbelievably awesome (if you’re into blue). I’ve seen a few around town but had yet to see refraction in person until i purchased it.

Wanted to stick it out and wait to see if they were going to make a manual but there were no guarantees that they would offer another MY in blue, plus that and mark up/availability…yeah, all that.

Hope to see the CLT folks at the March C&C, I’ll have the PPF on by then.

Only pic i have for now is a detailed car sitting in the garage on a battery tender. :-| /lame!
