If it's about lap times or handling then Potenza RE-71RS on oem wheels 255/275 19 staggered
This is probably the fastest 200TW setup on stock wheels for track (not autocross) until you have aero, coilovers and wider wheels then you run Advan A052
Advan AD09 for endurance + wet days
Did you check on the video I attached?
The AD09 was faster than the CRS at that particular track on the BMW M240i on the day
Yes the AD09 is more endurance focus and is excellent in the wet
None of the BMW M cars I drove has the shifter wiggling around…may be I am just not being observant
The only time I came across this phenomenon was in an S15 with modified engine mount + an additonal engine damper
On a short track the Supra is already faster than the G87 M2 when they are running on the same compound tyres.
People buying the M2 are not primarily because of the performance It is a combination of practicality plus performance. Practicality is where the M2 wins against the Supra...

I like this swan neck wing but the issue is it's not tall enough.
Is there chance they will release a version with taller uprights (2.5-3 inches taller) ?
Average CO2 EU bullshit...it's costing Mercedes to keep the V8
The E and S class buyers are the business and the first class customers so they get to keep the V8
The economy class (C) got thrown under the bus because they don't want to or can't pay up for the V8 so they are getting the hybrid...
Happy as long as the next Supra has a 3.0 straight 6 even its a BMW engine

Nismo 370Z and Nismo GTR weren’t really limited editions. People who wants to pay up can walk into a dealership and order ir even buy one off the show room.
The beef I have with all the GRMN cars (Morizo Edition included) is they are super limited for no good reasons other than a marketing...

Toyota just release their long term technological plan on carbon neutrality. They are well and truely ahead of other manufacturers that are just betting on BEV.

EV is not the only solution to carbon neutral; it shouldn't be as it's not even clean. 60% of electricity is generated from fossils in the US, 70% in Australia. Lithium mining is dirty as hell. Recyling of old batteries posts big environmental and logistic challenges. Not to mention the cost on...
Highly recommend Yoko Advan AD09 for your purpose. Stronger grip than V601 but very durable. Handle 10 hard laps a session, 6 sessions a day no issue. Great in the wet as well.
Slower than A052 but much more durable
Think it will sell pretty well if they mate it with an S58 + 6MT and sell at a realistic price point. It's refreshing to see no horrible looking grilles from BMW for a change.
Come on Toyota, give us the S58 Supra + 6MT and please don't make it limited. Anyone who wants one should be able to...
