Just got this email from Toyota. Looks like the 300 will get a live stream. Not sure if this has been sent to those on the waiting list, or is public in any way, so Ill keep the URL secret for now.

I got the same email to both the email address I used for reservation and another that I signed up for info with. The info only one has 2 sessions available in the afternoon of the 1st and the one for reservation has several available from 30th onwards suggesting there are separate sessions for those that ordered and those that haven't .

Unfortunately I'll be unlikely to be available for any session due to work commitments... If anyone is available and could maybe take a list of questions to get answered that could be a great opportunity to learn more about the car!

So the EU Supra (>3,306lbs) weights less than the US version (3,397lbs), but is slower @ 4.3 seconds? :what:

Interesting that in the episode I watched he said the brakes were ceramic, even that you have to get heat into them etc. but this episode had no mention of that.

I heard that in the first episode and a few people questioned it online so I joined another one and asked. It seems there was some confusion in the first episode and none of these first cars have ceramic brakes. However, they seemed to have experienced them from what was said in the first episode so maybe the GRMN or the race car has them?

Shocked. Toyota marketing is usually pretty slick so having been informed in the livestream that ceramics are normally an extra 4 or 5K option on other cars but included as standard it sounds rather like this was incorrect. Poor show Toyota if that is true and the presenters weren't briefed correctly, what next, yes sir it comes with sat nav for an extra £xxxxx. Will reserve judgement until we here the official specs..

Ceramic what? Brake pads? Cause the car clearly doesn’t have carbon ceramic rotors.
