Luckily, I live in an area with a large dealership that doesn't do markups, but they are first-come, first-serve, so I'd need to be in the dealership with a deposit the day ordering opens. (which is how I got my A91MT for MSRP).

Given that no street car can come close to an F1 car in terms of experience, I'm kind of surprised that they all aren't driving around Land Rovers or G-Wagens.

I'd pull the trigger on one of these if they came to America for under $75k. I get that a downpipe, tune, and KW4 suspension can get you 90% of the way there, but KW4 coilovers are like $5k + install and add in the cost of DME crack and a license/tune.

I've never had a problem getting in and out because I naturally duck like I'm stepping into a boxing ring when I get in. However, I cannot for the life of me get into a Corvette because I'll wack my head Throttle House Intro-style every. single. time. because I get in the same way. So I guess...

I'm curious, are you running the factory alignment?

Even without a governor, the manual doesn't have enough gear to go much faster without bumping up the redline (assuming it makes enough power up there). At 80, mine is turning at around 3000 RPMs.

That's how these thing have gone historically. New buyers want the automatic at a higher rate than long term used buyers will. And that imbalance drives the demand for the manuals, and causes them to hold their value better. So in that sense, history is playing out as expected. That being...

These are my favorites because they can be a bit of, "if you know you know". Plus, they can fly under the radar and look like a regular plate to people who don't get it. I just appreciate stealth references over in-your-face ones. A plate with "TC SN197" on a Mustang isn't advertising the the...

IMHO, this is the least outrageous item on that list. GT3 cars are all the rage rn. Even Ford built one out of a Mustang. Plus, building a race car is so much cheaper than designing and selling a low volume sports car. The MR2 is the most outrageous claim on that list, by a long shot. It's...

I suppose the Celica could end up being the American GR Yaris (translation: 2 door GRC), with the MR2 being a backwards Celica, like in the 00s -- I'm not sure how close these chassis were underneath, but the W30 shared a ton of components with the Celica and Corolla, so much so that a 2ZZ from...

Eurocharged in Fairfield does great wrap work.

Luckily for you, most car people hate the 2.0T and it doesn't hold its value nearly as well as the 3.0. So you'll be able to swap the 3.0 for a 2.0 in the future and come out ahead. I wonder if a lot of your regret stems more from losing the automatic though.

I finally got around to switching to an iPhone, and now that I have access to CarPlay, I was wondering what apps people are finding useful for their Supra? I was hoping there's some app that can turn the head unit into an auxiliary gauge cluster (boost, oil temp, IATs, etc), but any...

The car probably uses the same switch for all of it's operations that first check if the clutch is depressed. So adjusting how much clutch travel that's needed for the car to register a declutch is to change the size of that button.

Shouldn't yall apply for statehood already?

Ha, that's just life preparing you for the curveballs to come.

Cybersecurity regulations have already been discussed between the OEMs and various government agencies, and while they aren't finalized, they are close. All vehicles will be getting locked down. Companies really shouldn't be supporting OTA updates on vehicles that don't support end-to-end...

I figured the "secure it to the car somehow" was implied, since anyone who removes it will realize it's just seeing there. But this is the internet, so you never know. Thank you for saving me from a lawsuit.

I agree here. The Supra brand is probably worth more than the actual cars sold under the nameplate. So it makes sense for Toyota to keep it alive as the race car that the production GR cars aspire towards.
