Right....This is the confusing aspect of things as a consumer. Why did they pursue this project in the manner that they did? Was a BMW collaboration worth degrading the vehicles name and historical significance in the automotive world to save some money? The Supra has a greater cult following...

So then if all they care about is money making SUV's and small sedans....why do they even want to pursue building non-profiting cars like the RC-F, GS-F, etc...??? If it's about money, did they not learn their lesson with the IS-F??? Why not build fast SUV's like the Germans or Americans?? I...

Why are the cars that everyone talks about and wants or pursues cars of their past (SC300, IS300, LS400, Supra, MR-2, 100 Series and older LandCruisers, 3rd Gen 4Runners, AE86, Celica All Trac's, etc...). No one cares about the RC-F, IS-F, GS-F, etc.. because they are "forgettable cars." It's...

Toyota has the money to build whatever they want, when they want, and where they want. When people tell me “they are trying to do what makes the most sense financially”, well then why on earth earth did they build an LFA that made zero profit (yes zero) and was actually a loss for the company...

YES! Thank you! When or if Toyota ever decides to build the car in-house, we can then circle back to this discussion....however, as it stands or what we see today....this is not a Supra.

Yes, hairdressers....:rofl: The same audience that's interested in; Mini Coopers, Audi TT's, S2000's (I know, but it is), Miata's, and Boxters/Cayman's. I don't even consider the tiny MKV a 370Z, Mustang, Camaro, etc... competitor. Forget the performance aspect of it, the fact that it's a...

Exactly! Personally, I believe if Toyota had made a real Supra (in-house) and sold it for more, it would have been accepted much much better today. People would have paid upwards of $60k-$70k-$80k for a real successor, just like people paid (and still pay) $100k for a Nissan GTR....yes, a...

You still don't get it do you....It's because names like the Supra and GTR and many others had raised the bar during our generation when we could not afford them. To see the Supra name come back, yet in a sad sad way makes me (and many others im sure) very angry at Toyota. I care because it's...

I was watching this a few days ago as well. The trend (as expected) with all these videos, is that the MKV Supra is not bringing on the excitement that most (if not everyone) thought it would. The shelf life of the MKV will only be a few years and not because sportscars are not popular...

Runs with Bugatti's stock....beats them with bolt-on's. When the LCF comes out, the R36 won't be too far behind for it's debut....and once again, put super and hyper cars to shame. I know there are people who don't like the GTR because it's fat, or ugly (their opinion), etc... However, credit...

Lmao....the competition would be made by Lexus??? How about Lexus try and compete with the regular cars from Europe first, then we can talk about competing with a GTR. The GTR currently runs with or beats Bugatti's. A Lexus against a GTR would be zero competition my friend. This is coming...

The R36 GTR is going to be a BEAST!!! This is how a car evolves....take notes Toyota. Talking exclusively to AutoCar at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Nissan design boss Alfonso Albaisa said the car won’t take cues from the limited-run GT-R50 special edition on show this weekend, but “has to...

For a moment there, I thought he was demonstrating this sitting in a MKV Supra....up until I noticed the BMW badges on the steering wheel and rear taillights in the video. :dunno::D

CAN protocol is a very simple protocol, you just need 2 wires (CAN high and CAN low) to transmit data...that's why the auto industry uses it. For example, in my line of work, we primarily work with automation for high voltage equipment....so CAN BUS wouldn't be as efficient as say ModBus over...

Again, the swap (physically) is not the difficult part. Motor mounts, etc.. are quite easy to fab up nowadays and will be plentiful by the aftermarket. I am talking about the integration of the 2JZ in a MKV chassis while retaining CAN BUS functionalities and still remain OBD-II compliant...

Toyota techs are gonna love the plastic screw plugs on the MKV’s cooling system.

Come on Johnny, it's all in good fun...anyone who is getting hurt by comments from an internet forum should throw their PC out the window and never get near the web again...lol. Most of us here (majority) are not going to own this car....and those who are speculating 2JZ swaps, manual...

A70TTR, are you in this photo by chance? :D:rolleyes:

Yup! This dude is on point in every video....this is who the real enthusiasts are, not internet trolls wishing for another badge. Btw, for those hating on him....he actually owns a R35 GTR. Respect!

1000hp is not really all that expensive anymore, I mean compared to 10yrs ago. It will only be getting cheaper and cheaper as turbo technology and manufacturing continues to advance. You can get 1000hp today out of a 2JZ for ~$10k...that’s including supporting mods. Quality of parts and how...
