An A90 was spotted by my brother in Ashford Kent this afternoon. Any of you guys?

That makes 4 different Supras in my local Area: Folkestone: Me and a Yellow one. Dover: Red one. Ashford: A90

Some bad news though, just tried them in the car, looks like it is exactly the same as the LHD version so they don't fit right... The "A90 Edition" one seems to kinda sit in the top one, but the other doesn't sit at all. I then placed them facing inwards as if in LHD, and perfect fit...
Now those in the USA can get a spare limited edition sticker of what they thought was limited.

Did you ever hear anything back about the correct inlays and cert?

Getting a bit stupid now in my opinion. I could go out and get carbon inlays made within a week. Yet Toyota still haven't got anything.

Cant help but think the whole thing has been a bit of a sham. Receiving the incorrect certificates as well saying "Pro Edition" or whatever it was, and black leather.

I mean come on - how hard is it!?

Also - can't help but feel a bit miffed with the new power upgraded Supra the states are getting. Only good news is it's not coming here i suppose

Going to drop them another line today. I know - when i tried to get insured with Toyota insurance, the person i was dealing with didn't even know what car i was talking about.

Still toying wether to downpipe and map the car though.

Absolutely in the same boat. I so want the extra power and better sound but donā€™t want to mess with the warranty especially with it still being a relatively new car.

I keep thinking about this:

Litchfield Stage 1 ECU Remap - 440 bhp / 450 lbft

Ā£500+vat, works out about Ā£5/bhp covers both normal and sport modes and can be put back to standard setting.

Anyone receive a parcel today, Royal Mail left a card to big for letter box?

tempted by this too - thing is though even though it can be put back to standard - apparently it triggers a fault code which can't be wiped. Meaning that if toyota wanted to delve deep into a warranty claim they would see that the ECU had been tampered with.

In my opinion the car is too quiet so it would be Stage 2 or nothing

Litchfield do a package i think its Ā£1295 which gives you something like 475hp and 470 torque

My main complaint with the car too. Hearing the US spec cars stock compared to any EU model is such a big difference. I wish they didn't have to kill the sound so much to keep in with the regulations somehow... How do the likes of Jaguar get away with it on the F-Type?

Gary :thumbsup:, thanks for the update its been 5 months since incorrect items received and previous phone calls appear to have fallen on deaf ears.

I've just emailed them, not being a facebook subscriber.
