Any pics of the 2002tii or was it way back :love::love::love: Such a special car!
Unfortunately no, had to sell it in late 80’s to buy a house, but was a great car, didn’t have as much fun until got the 86.

This is a canyon shot of the M240i. Still have it for now, but will probably move it within a month and replace it with a winter beater. It’s a great winter car, but I don’t think it is worth holding that type of car just for the winter months. Plus do I really want two B58s in my garage? Ha.

Had a 2016 STi and E39 M5 just before the Supra. Supra gets driven on the nicer days, still have my '18 Raptor for the bad weather and snow days.

M240i is it a similar drive to the Supra?

Raptor is a win in many ways.. Love these. Had a 17' 5.0 FX4 F150 and these trucks are badass

Surprisingly the M240i feels entirely different from the Supra. AWD vs. RWD is a big contributor to that for sure, but it’s more than that. It is abundantly clear that Toyota left their stamp on engine, transmission, and suspension tuning. I plan on writing up a full comparison on the forums here soon because I think it would be valuable.

That’s not to say the Supra is 100% better — I think there are good reasons the M240i is the way it is compared to the Supra. It will depend on what people are looking for. It’s just nice to confirm that the changes between the two are exactly the changes I was personally looking for.

I will say though that the transmission tuning is objectively better in every way in the Supra vs. the M240i. And I did test drive a Z4 before taking delivery on the Supra: the Z4 is way more like the M240i than the Supra on that front.

I was driving an FRS that was supercharged. Went through 8 belts on the blower so I pulled it off. Still sitting in the driveway, haven't been able to sell it yet.

There she is, hiding in front.
