I ended up cancelling my order of the Phantom car stateside as I have my LE and the dealership started getting shady about it. This whole thing has been an absolute PR nightmare for Toyota in the states given the uncoordinated launch, delays, and dealerships adding on huge markups in addition to...
Interesting. I decided to just go with the Blackvue sticky mount instead of trying to remedy things with the Blendmount one because it actually ended up hanging a lot lower than I’d expected - the stick one takes up less space on an already small windshield area. But that’s good to know that...
Just wanted to report that the Blendmount camera mount that I ordered specifically for the 2020 GR Supra didn’t fit around the car’s rear view mirror. Not sure if this was a one-off mistake on their part but I’m going ahead and just using the Blackvue stock-on mount for now.
For those of you...
Yeah, after seeing these pics it looks almost exactly like the TRD spoiler I picked up, although I think the TRD is slightly bigger and comes to the edges of the trunk a little bit more and is a slightly tighter fit (perhaps because you have to screw it on in addition to the tape). Probably not...
I guess the real question is how much of a premium are they charging for this stuff? There was that one dealership on here who was charging like a $10,000 markup for a ceramic coating lol. If the total markup is only like $500 it may not be a bad deal.
I actually already did that several months ago. If he simply scrolled up in the conversation he would be able to tell that I'm trolling him. I guess he's sent so many follow up "hey, we have the new Supra!" texts in the meantime that it's quite a ways up in the conversation. Since I've got no...
I wish I was joking but no, that is a real text conversation I had with the sales rep at Toyota of Manhattan, and from today (October 18, 2019) - three months after the release of the car. These people are delusional.
Until last month I lived in New York and so I’d naturally stopped by Toyota of Manhattan to see if they had any Supras allocated. They said they had a waitlist, and so I signed up for it, but they couldn’t tell me the pricing at that time. When the LEs came in, the owner of that location picked...
Just wanted to post this here as well to get the good word out - TVP Auto in the Raleigh area is amazing in case anyone is looking to wrap or get PPF put on your car, and @NotSoJDM did an amazing job installing the TRD parts:
As some of you may be aware, I recently had full-body Xpel Stealth applied to my nocturnal black Supra to matte it out. I also picked up some of the TRD carbon fiber parts from Japan and had them installed. I had Xpel Stealth applied on top of the TRD parts as well to give them a more subdued...
Of the “wingy” wings, this is by far the best option in my opinion, but I still think even this looks weird due to the shape of the A90’s trunk, which has a natural spoiler look going on. Even this one looks like a “spoiler on top of a spoiler” to me. :confused:
I inadvertently drove this road yesterday (I'm driving from NC to TX and decided to take a scenic route through the Smokey Mountains). As I was driving I was thinking "man, this looks a lot like the video that CarGuy11 posted the other day." I eventually came up on Deals Gap and it had signs...
Yeah, that's what it looked like from the video, but I wasn't sure how to get it up under that area. It wasn't entirely clear to me what could/couldn't be popped off back there to access that area. :-P
For any of those of you who've installed a back dashcam, how exactly did you get the wiring from the back of the body of the car up and through the trunk? I didn't want to mess anything up there and wasn't sure how to get it into the plastic tubing thingy, so I have the wire for the back camera...
This happens in particular if you’ve been driving and it was raining outside. This happened previously with bicycle brakes for me that were really new, but as they wore down the squeakiness went away, so I’m hoping that the same concept will apply here but I have no idea if that’ll actually be...
