  1. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    So a base car in Canada at $45k USD + 17% (the 86 markup) gives $52,650 CAD. Seems likely, and reasonable for 330 hp at 3000 lbs as long as it's not a decontented model that you need to drop another $10k on to get what you want (see: Porsche). If the base is $50k USD then it's going to be a...
  2. Most revealing 2020 Supra prototype spy pics yet, Spotted 3/19/18!

    ^ It would be great if the usable rear glass area was that big, but going from the shots of the race concept's back window it won't be, Toyota put a very wide black band inside the glass border on the concept; if that's also on the production car will take a quarter or more of the window out of...
  3. The A70TTR Dedication Thread!

    Probably after they saw what the front of the facelifted GT86 looked like, didn't want to nauseate their customers.... :p
  4. 2020 Supra Transmission Chat - Manual, Dual Clutch, or Auto?

    QOTD: Why is this car equipped with a hair dryer?
  5. 3rd gen G29 BMW Z4 (2019-202X)

    That blue looks more like a wrap or even tape than paint to me.
  6. 2020 Supra Transmission Chat - Manual, Dual Clutch, or Auto?

    Meanwhile, elsewhere... 2019 Mustang GTs will have a rev-matching manual...
  7. 2020 Toyota Supra production to begin 2018, by Magna Steyr, Austrian manufacturer

    Figure about the same price as a cheap house in Sarnia :D..... Yeah, I feel your pain. There is a slight possibility they might bring a lower-tier version to Canada and not the US. BMW did it for years with the 320i which wasn't available south of the border, others have done it (VW for...
  8. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    That looks like some bad anime art.... even the current 370Z looks better.
  9. How would you build your Supra?

    Maybe they are rethinking their no-manual decision in light of all the backlash they've been getting here and (more importantly) in the auto media. (At least that is my wishful thinking lol.) Seems more likely though that his noncommittal reply was simply an avoidance tactic, he didn't want to...
  10. Production Toyota Supra will be revealed in the first half of 2019 at Detroit!

    Too bad. There was a funny post on either TTAC or Jalopnik recently taking Toyota to task for its drip drip drip of teaser images of the Rav4. WTF cares what a Rav4 looks like?
  11. Why I'm NOT Hyped About The New Toyota Supra

    Great work. After the threads get merged, the shorter list could even be considered for a sticky so people can easily find and add more noise to the topic of their choice.... This might ameliorate the problem of people starting a new but redundant topic thread when they don't see their topic...
  12. 2020 Toyota Supra production to begin 2018, by Magna Steyr, Austrian manufacturer

    Yes I see that price on Audi Canada's official payment estimator here for the Komfort trim, but that trim is decontented and not available in the US, which explains why there is so little markup on it relative to the US base model. For sportier Audi models like the TT RS, comparably equipped...
  13. 2020 Toyota Supra production to begin 2018, by Magna Steyr, Austrian manufacturer

    The talk of a lower-tier version had some of us hoping for a 370Z-class option at about $40k USD. If that is truly off the table Toyota will lose a lot of customers looking for a modest step up from the 86. A $55k car will be $65k in Canada, which makes a similarly powered $33k CAD 370Z Sport...
  14. The A70TTR Dedication Thread!

    Looks like we need a new inside source pronto - if the reveal isn't coming for another 9 months and Toyota stays tight-lipped, this forum will either go into sleep mode or start endlessly recycling old discussions and debates.
  15. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    Agreed, but my comment was in regards to halfmonkey's use of calibrate, not Tada's.
  16. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    ^ The "recalibrate"s in that quote were probably meant to be read sarcastically, as indicated by the poster's use of scare quotes around the word.
  17. 2020 Toyota Supra production to begin 2018, by Magna Steyr, Austrian manufacturer

    Well if Automotive News is accurate and Toyota truly intends to aim the Supra at the Cayman/Alpine A110 market it's going to start in the high 50s USD and go up from there.
  18. MKV Toyota Supra Photoshops & Renders based on FT-1 & Prototypes

    ^ Looking sweet, even if the wheel size is whack - what are those, 21s? Nice rims though. Curious to see how well those segmented headlight elements will look IRL...
  19. MKV Toyota Supra Photoshops & Renders based on FT-1 & Prototypes

    Hope you're right, looks terrific but sightlines will be a bitch with a greenhouse that small.
