The 86 is never about being powerful. It’s about good handling, stiffness, and the overall feel and thrill driving the car. That’s what’s most important.
It would be nice to see the I6 be priced at $46k. That would make Toyota competitive(against Mustang, Camaro). $55k is acceptable; but the fact is it is already in the Corvette price range, making the Japanese more expensive. Almost similar to buying two 86 or one Supra for the same money.
Will all 3.0-liter I6 variants be modified by Toyota, particularly with their own refined iron block?
Will the 4 cylinder variants also receive the same treatment or will it just be a copy paste of B48?
Not because it has a Toyota badge then it will feel very Toyota. Just like the 86, it feels very Subaru. Hoping the upcoming all-new Supra and Z4 will not feel the same from all aspects.
Tada already mentioned earlier that Toyota is still working on the Supra, that’s why they still test it at the Nürburgring. Toyota wants it to be more mobile. They have only given hints. Confirmation on what parts will be used, whether it’s just a copy and paste from BMW, availability, are still...
I have faith in Toyota and BMW that this collaboration will not be a slap-in-your-face experience, just like the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ that are almost the same; from engine, to design(except for bumpers, seat stitching, plastic on the dash, etc.), suspension, engineering, and the likes. The...
The father of the A90 Supra confirmed the main highlights of the new Supra. It will have the following for sure:
-3.0-liter turbo inline 6
-front engine, rear wheel drive configuration
-compact and smaller than GT86 and other previous Supras
-fun to drive
-driver focused cockpit
Now, I want...
Pricing would definitely be critical, an important factor for Toyota to make. This category of sports cars isn’t selling in big numbers. If Toyota wants to make the Supra sell, and be on top of the game, they better be careful pricing it. We could hardly conclude pricing for now as it will be...
A new representation that will still carry over its tried and tested secret recipe. It might be pricey for most of the youth. I believe it will cater to 30s and up, most of those who want an extra car for weekend drives. A80owners, I believe if they want to upgrade, they will most likely just...
Agree. The A90 is a representation of a new generation Supra. It was Isao Tsuzuki, chief engineer of the A80, who inspired Tada-san to make cars. The Supra became legendary with the A80, so no doubt the inspiration comes from A80, and they appeal to A80 owners. Tada personally had discussions...
