This is the exact discussion the OP is asking for. A lot of people hear the worst about German cars and assume they all lose most of their value after a year. Obviously this is just a stereotype as this phenomenon is present in all regions, for example Infiniti Q50s.

Since the OP is talking about depreciation when comparing German cars to Japanese, I think we should look at the context in which he is talking. He is NOT talking about it keeping 90%-100% of it's value and more so that it won't be worth $15k in 3 years

Oh of course, they are the few cars you can most of your money out of in a couple years. I just dont think the Supra will follow the 7 series and base 3 series stereotype of losing 50% of its value in a year and 80% after 6 years.

I never said it hold it's value, just that it holds it's value well. It is a car after all, you can't expect a car to not depreciate

Well is subjective. Of course they will take a hit in the first couple years but than they stagnate for a while. Better than say a 320i or 7 series But then again, all german cars take massive hits around 60k-80k miles

I believe they will hold their values well just like //M and M performance models do. But that depends on the different performance options offered later on and if the face-lift version is noticeably different.

That’s Mr. Baker to you pal, not a doobie-doobie-pot-head reference Air tight logic for a children’s cartoon but this real life. Where is the connection between “gulliable marketing” and non-Toyota parts in a supra? That only works if Toyota hid the fact it was a collab and tried to write it...

Lol dawg that’s not even close to being a real reason. Sorry you’re upset about the BMW part, maybe some therapy would help since it’s been 6 years of knowing this

$500 cash if you can show me a statement or document where a car has to have Toyota parts to be a Supra. Literally a single one. Like only one. That's a lot of money for a MK3 owner

Because he is butthurt

There is no fact to prove or disprove, your opinion doesn't set the law of the land regardless if you think it does

thats your opinion.

You can give two bakers the same ingredients and they can make vastly different cookies. Sorry you don't like the recipe, youre welcome to eat some different ones

Motortrend: The supra is very good at everything. TopGear: The supra is a one-trick pony Seems like this guy had his narrative written out before he even reviewed the car.

okay

7,000 is kinda aggressive considering they only sold 12,000 A80s in the US over the course of 6 years

What a strange review. He also closes with saying the $80,000 Cayman GTS is a better car than the $50,000 Supra which completely disregards what he said earlier about price and how the GTS was not the correct competition.

I guess I am saying something different. Although you don't have to drop the subframe, you could still work on the turbos from under the car in other RWD BMWs.

To be fair, this is usually due to the designers caring about the safety of those who are driving it, which is 1000x more important

I dont see how both our statements can't be true.
