for all the people who think its small or short or whatever
did you know the dimensions of the new Supra? It’s wider than the old one, about the same height, and it’s only short of less than 4 inches In today’s standards we all know that cars companies try to make compact cars, you can compare all the sports cars before 20 years and now to know what I mean Also, forget about the HP, Supra was only famous for being beast after modification and kept at reasonable price tag when stock Toyota is expensive and if they did 450hp I’m sure it will be 80k $ But being at 50k means many people will own it, and that is the only reason will generate huge of after market potential Look at the expensive cars, because no one is able to afford, it’s no suprise that after market has no interests of manufacturing anything for them. I think to re-create hype and generate buzz about the Supra, you need to make sure it’s there available everywhere on the streets I was having mk4 from 1999 till 2005, and I still remember all these after market how they make money of GTR and Supra parts, that’s not the case anymore GTR is now at 120k, which make it very hardly purchased, and therefore very few and expensive after market parts compared to before I think Toyota knew this too well And the inline 6 engine especially b58 is considered as the best 6 cylinder engine available, and already has toning packages easily up to extra 120hp very safely .. Nobody enjoys a 120k GTR, the real racing geeks enjoy underestimated car that half the price modified to smoke 100k or 200k car This what the Japanese heritage and not the engine or the dashboard ... Back in the day, we use to search for super cars Ferrari, lambos, Porsche just to ask them if they accept to race, and once they see you on a Supra, it’s frighten them ...in my opinion This is what made the GTR and Supra so special
so for me
Pros:
-Exterior styling
-Price. I think the more people can afford it, the more after market parts built for it, just like an iPhone or galaxy case compared to htc
-exhaust note. if you ever own stock twin turbo mkiv, then you know its the exact same, that tells u Toyota paid some attention to details on supra heritage.
Cons:
-no manual transmission
-Fake vents
