That's the way to go. Trust me, you'll enjoy that 3 hour inaugural drive in the Supra anyway!

Yup, that's the one! Every time I drive past that house, I think the truck is getting ready to pull out. This car, man. I did 1/4-mile runs right in front of JAARS when I had my Trackhawk, and no one ever looked at me twice. This car, however, reminds me of the old Celica Action Pack commercials:

Hah, wasn't driving around looking for him, quite the opposite. I drive past this jerk's house probably 3-4 times a week on my way to Mexico. Come on, I've got class, I make the men drive around looking for ME.

Hah - I happened to find this guy's house while I was out for a drive today. For those in the area who care, he lives on Davis Rd, right near the Wildwood Estates place. I happened to drive past on my way back towards home, and there was the C4 Corvette, parked right out front. Couldn't see the...

Good to know we’ve got you standing by.

Oh no way, you sold the MKIV? Damn, that sucks! I was hoping for some pics. Haha I didn’t get the recall done on my 21, and obviously not needed on the 22, but I’ve had luck with Scott Clark’s Supra tech. Good guy, open and honest, if you can get past the SA to talk to him directly. I’ve heard...

Haha, “between routes to Mexico”… Nope, this is the first time I’ve seen the person. I couldn’t see much about the driver, but I’m going to assume he was either really young, or really drunk!

For those of us in Waxhaw, keep an eye out for a guy in a red convertible C4 Corvette. He kept trying to screw with me from the time he saw me going through downtown Waxhaw. Backed off a bit, and then passed me going 60+ in a 35 within a no-passing zone near the elementary school on Providence...

I actually like this one, mostly because it doesn’t bolt on extra fender pieces to the stock hood…. …and then I saw that the hood isn’t included, and won’t be available until later, along with the spoiler.

I couldn’t do that wait - but it will be well worth it! Those things will look amazing on the Supra.

Thanks! That one is fantastic. I'm especially jealous of all of the storage provisions you all get in Europe - we don't have anything for the trunk nets or side storage here.

I'm having the same problem getting to that section. It worked great in my 2021, but does NOT work on my 2022, same adapter. Possibly because my 2021 did not have the recall update?

Looks good so far! That part stands out a LOT - but it looks like you did an awesome job! I'm sure it will look fantastic when you're done. I'm thinking about doing the shiny black bits in alcantara soon - just not sure which color.

And you got the nice wallet for your books? Not a junky, flimsy one? That would be a surprise, unless it was traded from another non-southeast dealer, since the southeast distributor isn't supplying those. I got all of the books, just not the nice wallet. Bought my 2021 from Wilmington, NC, and...

Perfect, thanks! Cheaper than I expected - usually this is the kind of stuff that costs stupid money. I tried searching a bunch of stuff, but only ever came up with used ones - probably because I was putting 'Supra' in the search. Hopefully this one will fit the books. Happy to be the guinea pig.

Local dealer has zero control over it, they’re forced to do what the southeast distributor tells them to do. Our local dealers here can’t get them even if they wanted to.

Like some people (I.e., anyone who bought their Supra in the southeast region), rather than the nice wallet most people get for their manuals, I got a junky, flimsy holder with the dealer’s info stamped on it. Not a big deal, but it irks me that Toyota gives them free reign to do that. Does...

Yup - this just adds another level. The dealers can markup whatever they want above what Toyota Southeast, etc. are charging. The distributor is just setting a higher MSRP before the dealer even adds their chunk on top of that.

The worst part is, all of the agreements with manufacturers are written with insanely good terms for the distributors and dealers, since some of the manufacturers had a really hard time breaking into the US, especially since WW2 was fresh on peoples' minds. Check this out, regarding Subaru of...

We have a distributor down here who rules all new car orders with an iron fist. All cars come with ToyoGuard Platinum, they heavily overcharge for the trunk mat ($199 vs $85 elsewhere), etc. They’ve decided that no one wants red interiors, so here we are. We also aren’t getting any Phantom Gray...
