I took a quick glance at the Corvette forum, here's a couple of gems that stood out

"Please, please please buy my Supra no one wants!"

Still waiting on your ground breaking car of the year Corvette, maybe you want to settle for this BMW Z4 with Toyota badges?
The MKIV supra was an incredible car but the current version is not that. The lack of enthusiasm in the community of fanboys shows it.

Lol that’s funny. If they made that 4 cylinder with manual and lighter I’d be interested. Never mind, they did and I purchased one it was called a 86 trd.

The base Mustang has a limited slip diff. Dafuq is BMW’s excuse for not having one here?

You know it’s not a good sign when people are talking about the road instead of the car.

This car sounds disappointing. It needs a more rev-happy motor considering its modest power output. It also needs a manual. What's the point of a lighter, cheaper, slower Supra if it's much less engaging to drive?

"not sure if it's even a decent sports car".....BURN!!! LOL, great comment and awesome review as always! That road is SICK by the way.

They won't sell many of these that's for sure.

I firmly believe this 4 cylinder version of the Supra should not exist.

Hyundai is producing more out of a 4cyl turbo than this

Parts bin car.. dragged the name ‘Supra’ through mud. We partnered with BMW cause a Supra is supposed to have an inline 6 engine. Then why this nonsense?

What is the point in a supra without some sort of limited slip differential?

That just seems underpowered for what it is. Golf Rs have been coming with 300hp from their 2.0 since like what 2014?

LMAO, $40k+ for 255 HP hahahahahahaha

It still should've been called the Celica

They should've named it Celica. Better yet, they should've just built the Supra themselves and put V6 TT engine and make it a little cheaper. Some might say "Supra without I6 is blasphemous!", but at what cost? BMW reliability and almost-BMW price tag?

No way I'll ever buy this rebadged BMW piece of crap. How the mighty have fallen...

Toyota needs to accept the fact that they botched the Supra.

Give me a V8 Mustang or Camaro. This is crap.

$40,000 for 255 HP, no thanks

Instead of using the BMW inline 6, I'd been happy if they used an upgraded 2GR-FSE with a turbo. As for the 4 banger version... Shouldn't have even happened in my honest opinion.

Michael Ouzounian
This should be called a "Celica" and the 6cyl should be the "Celica Supra". This doesn't make any sense.

Donovan Wallace
Should've just said celica

With the new Nissan Z over the horizon. The new Supra is in more danger now than ever. Especially the 4 cylinder version.

Meh. A four-banger that gets wheezy at 5500 RPM? No thanks.

So basically there's no reason for this car to exist. Got it.

The new supra is a major disappointment

What a terrible car. A 4 banger that revs to 5k and costs $44k. This makes the BRZ look like a super car

^Can't say I disagree with most of those post.

Matt: This isn't even really a great sports car by BMW standards, and is certainly not what I am looking for in a Toyota.

What a waist of time video. No news there. All the news he has was put out 10 months ago. Toyota was building cars for Pontiac in the 90's. UAWU made it more expensive for domestic manufacture. BMW made the Supra super cheap for Toyota. They were already making the engine and chassis and interior.

Only reviewer who's opinion I actually take serious or into account is Savagegese, too many other people usually either over hype for corporate appeasement or are negatively biased.
