Filter? I'm loving that brushed steel color, though.

It is, if not a GT, then a sports car with the capabilities of a grand tourer.

Okay, then. I thought the aftermarket would end up having to rebuild every last part of the car. Turbo and AT-turbo. One's for the AT, and the other's for the... did not see that coming. But oh, yes, please.

Is this the same company that said making a manual box was too expensive and not worth the market? Hmm

And you mated a T-56 to that? How? Would be useful to apply to other engines.

Nothing a performance air system and higher-pressure blowoff valve can't fix.

I spend a lot of time on the GM Performance website, and according to them, the T-56 Magnum can hold some 700-single-digit torque, and it's like $5k. (Looking at you Tada, surely you can make a tranny that handles 3/4 that for cheaper) Did you use an LS or a BB crate? V8-swapped Sciobarus are nice.

The pedals are nice and close together, which makes for better brake to gas transition and easier heel-and-t- Oh wait. What if that space is designed to hold a clutch pedal later on? I know that's the Bimmer, but it and the Toyota share a ton of design features, so maybe...

GRMN, you mean... Honestly, I think they should call it the TRD or TRD Sport edition, in keeping with US sports-tier tradition. Let the GRMN stay in Europe. Sniped. Meant for @2above.

I once mused at the idea idea of converting a facelift-MkVII or MkVIII Camry XSE into a coupe and giving it RWD or AWD. Those things are beautiful.

Love the A70, but I think the design language was a bit overused in that JDM era. Sharpened-up-looking Porsche 944 in everything from the RX-7 FC3S to the Mitsu Starion to the Supra MkIII.

Actually tho, the new Supra is really sleek. Not like the bubbly MkIV. Sorry for insulting your halo car.

Here too. I'm looking at the possibility of fitting an active rear spoiler. Sad to say, I only have space for two cars...

Where did this thread end up..? Okay. Time to make a spiel and repost it in every thread where people argue about the MT. *deep breath* Stop being butthurt about the manual transmission. I know you people like stickshift; even I appreciate the existence of a clutch in my 350whp BRZ. But manuals...

Wow. Identical. Or maybe 'cause they're both in the same segment. I would drop an estimate for the weight at 3300 lbs. for the turbo with this info. The Supra has a bigger engine, and is more focused on refinement, which adds a couple hundred pounds.

Sorry, that was unclear. I meant that it being partly BMW was a fact. Thanks for reaffirming.

Okayyy. I stand corrected. The GT86, if I'm not mistaken, had an auto for extra price? Not sure why Tada would say "you need 'exotic' materials to make a decent manual". I would suggest Toyota offer two manual options. One will stay stock, tampering with it will mess it up, and too much torque...

In their defense, this is a known fact at this point.

I second the idea that the hatch isn't closed. Active wing was already axed. But why would the 'back be open?

Let's not forget the NSX, the Civic Type R, and the IS300...
