Well that's a little harsh, but some may not realize how different in size our populations are. Similar land mass, very different population density. Also worth noting how much further north we are means there are no areas like California or Florida where it's still sports car weather at this...
Now this is even more interesting...

"We have to make a new 86 that surpasses the Supra… that is what the customer expects," Tetsuya Tada told the publication.
Uhm, literally no one would expect that. But hey...
Interesting! Sounds like they are gambling that the number of buyers who option up with high margin extras will cover the cost of the base models that go out the door. This doesn't surprise me at all either, seeing what this car looks like under the skin. Its not built like a conventional car in...
Just a FYI, but the distance from the ground to your fender line is an inaccurate way to measure whether your suspension is sitting correctly. The engineers don't care about the distance of the fender to the ground, they care about what angle your control arms are sitting at. I don't know if...
Those dyno results seem a little off. We'll see what the norm is once the production cars hit the road. 11s btw are impressive no matter what the claimed power is. It's also a heavier car then its predecessor, and only marginally more power. Its increases in quater mile times, and 0-60 too of...
Apparently Ferrari has run out of good Italian words to name its cars. Roma is Italian for Rome. They've gone self titled like a music album, now they're just going through cities in Italy. That or its named after the tomato...
The future is bleak for driving enthusiasts alright. I hope someone figures out how to make a lightweight, tossable electric sports car. You can get an electric Palatov D2 now, but that thing is 100k+ and hardly mainstream. Really hoping Toyota is actually developing an electric mr2 as the...
You're cross shopping the wrong car...
Convertible issues gone, plus you get a Sport Roof. 2019 car has more power now too, better power to weight then the 86 (better gas milage too, and no flat spot).
That's the problem with the new Supra for me. With the lack of rear seats and the tiny...
Less trolling and more some employee being asleep at the wheel I'm guessing.
Yeah I'm really looking forward to really getting into FH4 finally. I got it not too long ago but my heart just wasn't in it and I kept going back to the older games.
I actually bought an 08 Z4 MCoupe, turbo swapped...
It wasn't just the mk4, they removed ALL Toyota road cars from both new Forza games, and everything else that wasn't Gran Turismo. There was nearly 20 cars total with the Lexus and Scions included.
This article has the complete Toyota Tweets in it on the subject...
Not to bring up the accident again, but one of the current issues of the big 3 car mags (can't remember if its C&D, Motortrend or Road & Track) has a comparo of all the current sports cars vs the McLaren Senna. For the first 2 tests, done on rough backroads, the Supra finished bottom of the...
What's the problem, they're just matching the oem panel gaps. At least when it comes to the ones around the hood.
Even the Toyota cars at the show didn't correct it. Look at how the front bumper fits near the wheels on the Heritage edition.
Actually I got to sit in a mk5 at a dealer last...
That's because that's exactly what it is. The mk4 had a duck bill shape on its hatch, but it wasn't really extreme enough to create downforce. The mk5s was exaggerated and made functional because they opted to not do the protruding spoiler from the FT1.
But thats ok, double spoilers on a Supra...
Ah yes right. Well, it's there. Probably still 2jz powered imagine. Some other neat Toyota stuff there too like this...
