"Car enthusiast" don't drive their cars. They park it in a parking lot, wack off other car enthusiasts in rows, and then talk about what mods they should put on the car next.

You see, I am not here to defend why the AT is better. Manual or the ZF8, both are great transmissions in this car. None of my original postings suggests that the manual or auto was better or worse. It comes down to personal needs and preferences. Not sure where you saw the need to defend...

You don't know me, and neither do I know you. Wouldn't it be a bit immature to judge if someone a "real manual driver"? What would even be the definition of a manual driver? How did you know you were a manual driver? My first car was a manual, drove through SF bay area traffic, and commuted up...

One of the reasons I bought the Supra was that it is one of the few true sports cars with a ZF8. I live in a highly congested, plenty stop and go, phantom traffic comes outta nowhere city, so having a traffic-ok car that I enjoy as soon as I make it through was one of this purchase's main...

I always tell people that Tesla are great appliance cars. The software integration and overall vehicle engineering are done well compared to most legacy manufacturers. (If you worked at Tesla/with them in the automotive space, you know not all but most of their engineering is pretty good.) The...

The second one gives off an inline 6 vibe but doesn't sound like a B58/S58 to me. I looked at some Youtube sound clips on CX90 (Mazda's inline 6) with aftermarket exhaust, and it has some resemblance to the Instagram clip...

https://competition-bureau.canada.ca/en/how-we-foster-competition/education-and-outreach/price-maintenance-section-76-competition-act I believe this is the relevant law for it. I moved to Canada not long ago so idk if this is it, but I do hear that explicit markup is illegal here and never seen...

It's a hit or miss. Not every dealership does this but it's a common trick. You know there are still people who only buy cars from the dealer closest to them so they will eat it right up.

There's merit to both arguments. Yes, dealers in Canada don't charge above MSRP for vehicle price (that includes all options and whatever dealer bullshit they add). However, to get around the MSRP restriction, they add random BS dealer options such as "electronic rust-proofing modules" that...

https://global.toyota/en/newsroom/toyota/41894560.html Seems like it aligns with the old press release.

Probably the dealer computer system and the person is not supposed to be exporting inventory info

Can we get another oil thread started so I can make it through the last stretch of this winter blue.

I find most Canadian versions of the OEM website are either wrong or poorly put together. (Looking at you Subaru Canada...) OP did you at least test-drive a used Supra? IMO there's a lot of deals to be had in Canada right now. If you can get a Premium for the price close to a Base, you could...

Tryna keep it Toyota/Supra flavor. lol GRMN Circuit Morizo TRD GR Hakone Last Call Final Edition Complete Partial Upgrade 2025

Gonna take a page out of Dodge's playbook. Last Call Final Edition Complete Partial Upgrade 2025

Irrelevant info. I think 3.0 only comes in Premium in Canada no?

My guess is that once the internal BMS/IBS sensed the battery reaching a desired SoC, it just doesn't draw as much power on the charger to charge the battery anymore (going into "float"). I guess that's why Toyota/BMW states in the manual that the charging must be done through the connection...

Update on my final solution. Hopefully useful for future poor souls who also live in a condo/apartment without access to a plug and need to store the car and maintain their battery. Going with the "using a portable battery to run a battery tender to charge my supra" route. Here's my setup...

With other fellow members pointing out the windows lowering require power as well as hatch access, I've decided to buy a power station to run a charger/maintainer every few weeks to charge up the car from the connection under the hood.

FWIW, I came across this document online. It's a TSB from toyota regarding long term storage of Supras. https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10174897-9999.pdf
