  1. The Toyota Supra Owner's Club Event featuring Tetsuya Tada & the A90 (photos/videos)

    Ridox is probably the only one that looks decent.. all others are yucky. A70.. I’m surprised you are into body kits.
  2. The Toyota Supra Owner's Club Event featuring Tetsuya Tada & the A90 (photos/videos)

    What did tada say about the body kits? Never understood the mentality behind putting gaudy body kits that totally take away from the beautiful lines of the MKIV Supra.
  3. Most revealing 2020 Supra prototype spy pics yet, Spotted 3/19/18!

    Hopefully you don’t know that person any longer.
  4. Lets talk about a side air vent/scoop/intake

    Ah I totally understand race compounds and required heat for braking efficiency. However, in street application I don’t see the ducts keeping the brakes too cool. However having a car that has proper functioning features that can easily be taken to a track and accommodate aggressive compounds...
  5. Lets talk about a side air vent/scoop/intake

    Many cars have functional brake ducts (front and back) on the road today.. not sure why that would be problematic. Take a look at corvettes, Vipers, heck even the MKIV’s rear brake duct was functional.
  6. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    He still is.. at a higher level and gets hands on with all the models. Once they dissolved SRT he took his current role. Great guy, still comes to all the national events. Tracks both his SRT and ACR regularly. Sergio is a total douche on the other hand, after ACR made the rounds in the American...
  7. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    And I sincerely think Toyota can do that.. hearing about the hardship Tada went through with the car is something that draws me to the car. Similarly Ralph Gillis and his passion to make the GenV Viper a reality. Driving the Viper will make it clear that there was a ton of passion that went into...
  8. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Yup.. you can see 09 (~12k) and 10 (~11k) were higher and 11 (~6) there was a sharp decline which is what I was referring to. Toyota went toe to toe with all other segments with the domestics (once best seller Taurus is almost dead now), Tundra did well in the 1/2 ton segment initially...
  9. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Well.. if Nissan updates the Z to even 375hp it would compete well. Post 2011, the mustang GT was 300hp and the 370Z was well placed in the market and you can see in that in the sales figures. But once coyote came out the game was over for the 370Zs and Nissan never did anything to rectify that...
  10. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Agreed. The market is very different when it comes to the JDM brands. However, the Camaro, mustangs and mopars have soldiered on and are arguabably at their finest right about now. Just look at what Dodge is offering with the old school platform that the challenger is based on. Scat pack 1320...
  11. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    10k a year is super optimistic. They’ll celebrate birthdays at dealer lots. Even with the conservative MKIV production they spent a decent amount of time at dealer lots. I remember a Baltic car sitting on a Show room floor for over a year before it got sold.
  12. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    New found respect for the man.. thanks for posting this
  13. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Makes no sense for it to be a limited production car.. JV with BMW was to cut production costs and bring the Supra to the masses. Would it be a limited production car compared to a Camry.. yes.. but if you went and ordered one you should be able to get it. Limited production like the GT350 and...
  14. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    You are thinking way too far ahead.. just cause they discontinue something doesn’t mean it’ll go up in value. MK2s and MK3s didn’t shoot up in value like the MK4 did.
  15. The Toyota Supra Owner's Club Event featuring Tetsuya Tada & the A90 (photos/videos)

    Does this mean certain aftermarket outlets had their preview of the car and it’s specs? Maybe Toyota provided them a car already to mock up stuff such as exhaust, intakes, tunes, brakes, wheels etc?
  16. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    At the same time.. Nissan just reported that they will make the fastest car with the next GTR along with a statement that there won’t be any electrification. Wonder how FCA throws that Hellcat motor in pretty much their entire lineup (Jeep, Charger and now talks of the Commander and the...
  17. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Toyota doesn’t have money to make cars that have an emotion..they are emotionally broke. :)
  18. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Even if the third one came.. it’ll be fathered by someone else. Remember the brothers that exist today have different fathers.
  19. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Yeah.. a bit depressing especially given that the last present is not even a Toyota powerplant.
  20. Toyota Supra rumored to be offered with 2.0L turbo 4-cylinder base model

    Hmm.. generally I agree with you for the typical mustang, Camaro buyer. Given the fact that this car is so hotly anticipated and the after market is ready to take full advantage of it, I’d be surprised the average joe even paying the premium to get into one. Only the hardcore guys that want to...
