I get that all of the time when I drive the MKIV. :rofl:

Congrats! Enjoy the ride and never look back. You did well sir!

Feel better? I'm just trying to understand where are you going with your claim of rightwinger propaganda. It was Gore who formed the Global Warming Fund and Obama who signed the Clean Power Plan. Meanwhile, Republican McHenry who introduced the RPM Act to protect us who like to modify our...

Says the 2 members who have gasoline powered cars and/or modified... :rofl: How is this rightwing propaganda when you have a modified MKV Supra, 2 S2K's and a gas guzzling Ford Raptor. You have zero room to talk, especially if they are modified.

Yup. It's a damn shame. https://aspeniaonline.it/palladium-the-car-industry-and-a-chinese-mystery/ https://jalopnik.com/demand-from-china-is-exploding-the-price-of-the-palladi-1841069510 Recent busts https://www.motor1.com/news/494061/catalytic-converter-thieves-police-bust/...

The 70's was an experimental decade not just only for drugs. ;) Look how long it took them to figure out the cylinder deactivation technology. They also tried it in the 70's during the oil crisis but wasn't successful...

Current administration? :rolleyes1: You must have forgot about Al Gore. He's the one who kicked started the whole campaign even with Shell/Opel's P1 that managed to get 376 MPG back in the 70's. http://www.opel-p1.nl/custom/testcar/Shell%20Opel.htm...

Guys, it's coming. Sleepy Joe declared it last year after his brain had a fatal exception error. Those in California already know the wrath of the EPA and C.A.R.B. You can't even buy a cat-back exhaust and have it shipped to your address in CA. If you get pulled over, any modifications...

Exactly. Look what the EPA is trying to do.

That's great as all MKV owners should give their honest feedback. How Toyota processes that is up to them. Hopefully they listen take all of your feedback into account. You guys are the ones who bought the car so your feedback shouldn't be taken lightly. Tada-san openly bragging that it was...

GER as in Germans. Porsche and Audi. The EU will set the standard then the rest will be forced to follow. IMO, even with the GT86 and Supra, Toyota has still disappointed me. Gone are the Toyota's of the 70's, 80's, 90's and even 2000's where they just made cars that applied to everyone...

This is my take. The transition to the hybrid electric performance will start with the GT sedans. Look at the Audi RS e-tron GT. I was at Porsche for the Taycan unveiling and as much as a petrol head that I am, I'm actually pretty impressed by the Audi RS e-tron GT. More so that I'd be...

Besides the MKIV Supra production of 9 years, the previous gens had semi short life cycles. A50: 1978-1981 A60: 1981-1985 A70: 1986-1993 By the time the J29 finally came into production and all of the hurdles it had, I doubt we'll see another Supra successor for a while. What are looking...

13Million Yen is about $119,295 today but who knows what that would equate to in 2 more years. I'll give Toyota a huge A+ on sending off the final MKV Supra with a bang. However, 200 units at 120K will spend majority of their car lives being tucked away or flipped from owner to owner...

Wow, you went through some very nice sports cars. Do you regret selling your 993 Turbo so early? Prices for those things have remained strong. https://bringatrailer.com/porsche/993-turbo/

Agree! We don't know his financial situation but when it comes builds, rule #1 is to have a budget. 1000hp doesn't come easily. That's the problem with young DIY'ers run into is being on a limited budget. It happens to majority of us and myself included in my early 20's with turbo charged...

As petrol heads, we've all been there. I haven't gone extreme with my MKIV but I've done all of the wrenching myself as well as with my other cars and motorcycles. I have a buddy of mine who is in year 5 of his Supra build. He started off with a MKIV NA/W58 and is going GTE single turbo. I...

That's what I got from his video too. It seems as though he left out a lot major details (aside from his story about the mechanic and spare engine ordeal) that lead up to him selling the car. Seeing that it was parked outside with a car cover in the middle of winter was a good indication that...
