So, they're taking the same development route they did with the MKV, for the GR86? Lol wow. I'm still interested, but wow.

If they decide to use the FA20DIT in my WRX, that would make me a happy camper. Already familiar with the engine, however the torque dying off at around 5500 RPM and slight rev hang is a bit annoying. Also, I'm curious as to how would they would fit everything (FMIC, piping, low mounted turbo)...

Seeing how random the Fast series is, I don't know if that's actually the plot or a joke.

^^That is awesome. This may be a weird comparison, but I've been bouncing back and fourth between a hotter MKV and a Porsche. I've driven a 997 GT3 at a local track a few years back and was blown away. Been a silent Porsche fan since then. The A90 is really good for what it is, and the cheaper...

You got a point. But, such is life. From the reviews so far, the added weight is well hidden. Still fast as hell and handles like a Porsche. The looks are still classic Porsche. Yeah that definitely looks bad on Toyota, but I guess the BMW constraints is the main culprit. The PDK 992 C4S is...

Slowly coming around to the 992. Saw it a car show last November, and it's really nice. Still got my heart set on a 991.1 (or .2) GTS, but that car is really impressive.

Well, there is a list of all LE VINs (US market) provided a while ago. So you could see if a MKV VIN is really a LE. But, yes. The VINs don't necessarily dictate the plaque #. https://www.supramkv.com/attachments/le-txt.14216/ Not Toyota bashing here, but the only benefit I see from the LEs is...

Interesting come back from behind win for the Supra.

Amen

^^ Good thing noting the EU LEs. I completely forgot about them. I believe Toyota announced production for the EU would be 900 cars and the first 90 would be the "A90 Editions" (LE) with matte exterior and red interior. https://www.motor1.com/news/301135/toyota-supra-euro-spec/

I strongly think they're selling the Premium model with red mirror caps and black wheels. The missing red interior and plaque are the biggest distinctions between the LE and the Premium cars. Anyone could buy the red mirror caps and matte wheels. I attached a list of US LE VINs from a BMW...

Is Nissan finally going to throw in the motor from the Q60 into the new Z and have a MKV competitor? 2020 just got here, but I'm ready for 2021 already lol https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/nissan-z-future-next-gen-retro-horsepower/

.... lol ok. With all the GR integration happening in North America, what's happening to TRD? Will it be slowly phased out? Not that I'll shed a tear for them, but just curious.

Two things: 1. Toyota doesn't have an inline 6. 2. Different times. Ppl buy ecoboost Mustangs and 1LE Camaros (as crazy as it sounds). There's a market for those who want the look, but not the cash.

100% agreed Jeff. It may hurt some feelings, but it is, what it is. I wouldn't say this exactly, but I get the point. At the very least the Supra is here, people are enjoying it, and Toyota is producing sporty cars again. Just not in the fashion many people envisioned.

Well.... the exterior distinctions are the smaller rotor size and smaller exhaust tips lol. I guess it's a if you know, then you'll know type of thing. Interior got alcantara seats and gloss black center console instead of the carbon fiber in the 3.0T.

3. Fake vent mods ...You want more fake vents?? :D

@Huddleston https://www.supramkv.com/threads/what-did-you-do-to-your-supra-today.2074/ Already been done, have fun :thumbsup:

^^I think that's the Avalon

~165k damn that's more than I was predicting (140k-150k). I'm sure it's not the lightest thing, but ~7:08 time is impressive. The engineering behind weight distribution is really impressive now-a-days.
