  1. Nismo Z vs Mustang Dark Horse vs GR Supra

    The first time I test drove the Supra (a used 2021) I still owned my ND2 Miata. You’re spot on with your assessment. The Miata is raw and engaging pretty much all the time. The Supra is fairly disconnected by comparison. Though now that I own one I’ve discovered that it at least gets pretty...
  2. Nismo Z vs Mustang Dark Horse vs GR Supra

    I've made this same reply to a similar comment in another thread. I don't agree with your take at all. They've made a couple videos where they preferred the driving characteristics of the new Z over the Supra, but they've also praised the Supra several times. They liked it in their first videos...
  3. Miata Mx5 RF

    One thing to keep in mind with the 981 and 982 (718) Cayman/Boxster is that the gearing is really long. So they can feel a bit gutless because of that. A Miata on the other hand has pretty short gearing. So even though it's down on power, it feels eager off the line and in city driving. It's...
  4. Stock rims Winter Tire Size

    I had planned on running 235/40R19 and 255/40R19 Michelin CrossClimate2 tires on stock rims for the winter, but decided to go with a square all aftermarket setup instead (245/45R18).
  5. Will PPF on Front Lip Peel Off Quickly?

    Thanks. They certainly don’t look painted to me either. Given the matte finish I was hoping to avoid putting glossy PPF on top of it anyway.
  6. Will PPF on Front Lip Peel Off Quickly?

    Huh. I had no idea the front lip was actually painted. I was going to have my PPF installer skip it next week. Now I’ll ask for it to be done for sure.
  7. Miata Mx5 RF

    They put a lighter flywheel in too. So it revs a bit faster. Was definitely noticeable to me.
  8. Miata Mx5 RF

    l lived in Iowa with my first Miata and still loved it. It's the kind of car that's fun to just drive around town. Is the Supra the better car? I think it's the better daily driver, but outside that it depends on what you're after. As others have said: test drive a ND and see what you think. I...
  9. Miata Mx5 RF

    I’ve owned 4 Miatas. A NC2 PRHT, ND1 RF, NC3 PRHT, and ND2 RF (in that order). All manuals, and all a joy to drive. However, I also found them all exhausting on longer drives, especially road trips. Comes down to the noise and constant driver feedback. Both of those are pluses on a backroad...
  10. Still waiting... How long have you been waiting for your GR Supra allocation/order/update etc.?

    Updated my vote. Put a deposit down on the allocation on May 4th, and picked up the car on September 30th.
  11. PSA: BMW wireless charging pads are killing NFC chips in iPhone 15 Pros. Here's how to disable the wireless charging pad.

    On the 500 mile trip home from buying my Supra last weekend I couldn't get the USB port to charge my phone. So I resorted to using the charging pad. As others have reported my iPhone (13 Pro) got very hot. It also became mostly unresponsive for a couple hours after taking it off. I'm headed to...

  13. FS OEM 2021 Wheel $550 OBO

    Do you have a closer picture of the scratched wheel? I'm assuming these are in good condition under the wrap? Any repairs done to any of the wheels?
  14. Track your Supra Status

    Pickup went well. Car was in perfect condition. Wrapped the entire front end with Trakktape temporary PPF. Which mostly survived the 500 mile drive home. This dealer is fairly high volume considering they’re in the Midwest, and this was the only Supra they’ve received since at least April of...
  15. Track your Supra Status

    Yeah. Garbage parking for sure. With any luck that curb isn’t high enough to have done any damage.
  16. Track your Supra Status

    If they think it’ll be there by end of October it would probably need to be in the country by now. Use the inventory search on Toyota.com and find the car that’s allocated to your dealer. If it’s getting close to delivery there should be some estimated availability dates shown. Alternatively...
  17. Track your Supra Status

    About a week ago my estimated delivery changed to 09/29-10/04. This morning the date vanished, then an hour later my sales person reached out to let me know the car arrived. They got no heads up that it was on its way. Making the trip to pick it up tomorrow :)
  18. 2023 A90 Supra manual vs 718 Cayman vs 981 GT4 3.8

    The gearing is too long for even the PDK 718 base model IMHO. A 2.0 turbo 4 like that needs pretty short gearing to not feel dead down low. It's both a negative and a positive depending on what you like. It certainly makes the top end more entertaining than a lot of turbo cars. I’m also at...
  19. Official C8 mid-engine Chevy Corvette thread

    Yes, and more so than usual for the “custom” paint job.
  20. Official ABSOLUTE ZERO WHITE Supra Club Thread

    Looks great. Which rear spoiler is that? TR style?
