Have any reflectors that would fit the front & back of the Supra been release yet in the aftermarket? I was considering blacking mine out (given that my car is black) but that white on that BMW actually looks pretty nice and is giving me second thoughts...
Yeah, the other white LE of theirs was LE#600 something but actually had a production date (April 15, 2019) that was earlier than that of the LE#2 (June 11, 2019). Here’s the VIN of their other one.
Apparently, the LE#2 at Toyota of Orange had been marked up by $50k over MSPR, but the owner ultimately decided to keep that car for his family. It was a white LE with VIN WZ1DB4C06LW023462, which is very interesting because the production date of that car was June 11, 2019, which is much later...
They're both worrisome, but EAG seems to be leaving a lot of stuff out / generally misinformed about a lot of things relating to this. That other guy's steering rack also didn't fail anywhere near as hard as EAG's (not that that means it isn't concerning, but yeah...).
Aren't these the same guys who were saying that they're developing a manual for MKVs for ~$12,000? They're not exactly inspiring confidence by posting this sort of stuff. (Not that the steering rack failure isn't a real issue, but for the reasons you've stated here.)
I would be curious if anyone can figure out what the VIN was for LE#2. As I posted previously in this thread, someone had seen the car on Reddit and mentioned that it was at "Toyota of Orange" (link). Even if that car was VIN WZ1DB4C02LW020218, it would actually have been the 17th Supra produced...
I’ve mentioned this elsewhere on the site, but the OEM Supra projection courtesy lamps aren’t out yet. Neither are floor mats (other than the GR luggage mat for the trunk area). This is based on calling around to various dealers in Japan and having them check their system for the part number...
"It's not just sports cars. If you make something in-house, you can't actually make anything exciting. For instance, smartphones. For every company, the best technology [from other companies] is integrated in there and that's the excitement. It's the same for cars. If you want to make something...
There are OEM Toyota frames, but they're only in Japan thus far as I've seen and aren't really "Supra" specific: https://toyota.jp/supra/customize/
Personally, I just went with an all black frame and got a custom Supra-related license plate number ("A90") because it will be just below the...
Actually, the OEM projection courtesy lights aren't even out in Japan yet. I just got off the phone after a long fox hunt (I've been trying to obtain these for a while now) - I called Toyota Japan, they redirected me to GR Garage, GR Garage redirected me to Toyota Kyohan, and I had to call a...
That could be, but I think that You Drive's guess that they're press cars is the most likely reason for the extra 43 cars given the production dates. I'm slowly working my way through the entire list in the Google spreadsheet, but for the time being, I filled in the production dates for every...
That would be awesome - I haven't bothered trying to fix much of the rattling yet but am looking forward to seeing how others address these issues in the Supra (so that I can copy what they do and fix it myself ;-) ).
That is a very interesting color - it almost seems to change depending on the time of day. For some reason the only thing I can think of when I hear the words "black" and "rose" put together is this...
On a related note, it looks like Stradman is in the process of wrapping his car a satin red:
That was my first guess but it sounds like Keshy said that doesn't appear to be it. I'm not sure what else it would be, though, as that's the common complaint I've heard about as well.
Keshy - is the second point different from what the YouTuber is complaining about starting from the 2:43 mark...
I wonder what "sold" means - does it mean that the cars actually left the lot? Because in some instances I know that people have paid for and received title to their cars but not actually received them yet, whereas in other cases people have deposits and are still awaiting the arrival of their...
