  1. What do you think of Camry TRD?

    If we are talking numbers wise, Toyota/Lexus V6 sedans have been stuck in the 0-60 in ~6 seconds and 1/4 mile in ~14.5 second range for the past 15 years. Only car to break that barrier is the 2nd Gen IS., and even that was back in 2006-07. I remember back in 1998, my old GS400 (although with a...
  2. Nissan Z vs Toyota Supra

    At this point, even if it had that Nissan junk CVT in it, I’m convinced those folks would still say that it’s better than the Supra :crazy:They’d definitely say that it’s more ‘JDM’ though. it’s sad to see the excuses piling up. We are talking questions about testing methods, tires, fuel...
  3. Nissan Z vs Toyota Supra

    There’s so much twisting and turning taking place that you’d think this is gymnastics? Our friends are just going through the Five Stages of Grief, so let’s be a good friend about it and help them out. First, they were on their high horses by running their mouths saying that this car would...
  4. New LFA coming for 2025?

    Not sure what to make of this, as I’m still thinking about the canceled LC-F. If this thing is even being developed, wouldn’t it make sense to recoup the development losses and put into an existing platform? I know the LC-F is a GT, but again, why was the LC-F canceled to begin with again...
  5. MKV Future Classic?

    Im not sure if engine choices/options (ultimately) really matter when it comes to a car being a classic/collectible at the end of the day. Didn’t hurt the Americans if the Camaro had the same engine(s) as a Chevrolet Biscayne. In time, I would say, it will become a classic/collectible. The only...
  6. A Legend Returns: New Acura Integra Coming for a New Generation

    Since I wasn’t really a Honda guy growing up, I also don’t have a lot of nostalgia towards the Integra name. However with that said, I still think if this car can be spec’d out in a (GS-R like) trim with the (retuned compared to Type R) Accord’s 252hp with an available automatic transmission...
  7. A Legend Returns: New Acura Integra Coming for a New Generation

    I am not sure what people's expectations were/are of this car, but I think this car is the true successor to my Civic FK7. I find the current gen Civic to be boring compared to the 10th gen. To me, this car is the true successor to that car, and the current Civic is a Civic trying to be a...
  8. 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback Makes Global Debut During Honda Civic Tour “Remix” Virtual / Civic Type R

    As the current owner of a CST HB, I’m going to reserve final judgement until I see how these look like on the streets. As of right now, I’m gonna pass. Seems like it has the same engine and will probably be heavier/slower than mine. Styling looks a bit bland to my eyes (judging from press...
  9. 2022 Toyota Tundra spied

    Looks like an enlarged Tacoma with a 4Runner front end. But that’s a good thing. interested in hearing about the specs of this thing. I really hope they don’t do away with the V8 option like some of the rumors suggest. I know manufacturers love V6 (and even 4 cylinder:nono:) Turbo power in...
  10. 2019 Toyota Corolla Hatchback & Sedan

    Toyota has been waaay too quiet about their products that are just around the corner (Corolla GR, Tundra, Land Cruiser/LX, etc). It feels like we’re watching paint dry waiting for more info on this Corolla
  11. Toyota Supra and BMW Z4 Sales Figures

    Those numbers were so surprising that I had to do a double take to see if those were Canadian-only numbers ;)
  12. Toyota Supra and BMW Z4 Sales Figures

    So in the first quarter of 2021, the a90 sits at 1,725 sales, having a monster of a March. If these figures hold up for quarters 2-4, it would put the a90 at ~6,900 sales. Here’s a quote from A70TTR from 2019 on the first page: Looking at that almost 2 years later, we know that goal of 12,000...
  13. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    Based on dyno’s, the a90 3.0 easily makes 400+ crank horsepower. I think it’s important to note that when making a comparison with the (reported) 400hp in the new Z. But for advertising purposes, those that look on the surface level will see “382 vs 400”, which isn’t necessarily the entire story...
  14. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    ^Thanks for that. I am not surprised. So the $34k car is like the $59k Corvette.. has no options. Each “package” adds $5k, and the loaded one is $45k. Still expressive if they could pull that off, IMO? Still think you’re very likely to find one with one option package on a dealer lot, which...
  15. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    In a world where loaded Camry’s Altima’s and Maxima’s are pushing towards (and in some cases, surpassing) $40k MSRP... I am not too optimistic about the pricing of this car. I think people that look at base prices and actually shop for a car based on it’s listed based price are usually in for a...
  16. 2021 Lexus IS Sedan + IS500 F SPORT

    I’m glad this car is around and hope the starting price point of $56k sticks... makes for a nice option for those of us who haven’t bought an a90 and want a fallback option in case our significant other is against getting a 2 seater:fear:
  17. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    That’s true, good point. However, it felt like the Celica and Mr2 were just chugging along while (as we know of course) the Supra was dead. I still remember back in 2004/2005 when I was in a Toyota dealership, I saw that the sportiest looking cars in that showroom were a (210hp) Camry SE and a...
  18. All-new 2023 Nissan Z makes world debut!

    I think it looks good. I won’t consider it over an a90 for personal reasons, but it looks good. Nissan sees the a90 and responds.. I sure wish Toyota had been as competitive... say, back when they saw Nissan release the 350z back in 2002. :( if they did, we’d probably be sitting at an a100...
  19. Test Drive Hopefully Tomorrow

    i have a theory that I hope is wrong:hmm: Just like your gf, I have settled on White being the color when I buy a Supra (waiting to pay off my other ride first, which would be my DD). I am noticing that even though white is a popular color, there aren’t many white Supra’s in stock in my area...
  20. Toyota "Preparing" Hotter Supra GRMN, Says Chief Engineer

    Sadly, I think the one of the biggest hopes to have a a100 Supra (regardless of power train or even transmission options) lies in the overall sales success of the a90. That will at least show something to the bean counters at the company. Yes, even if you dislike Social Media attention seekers...
