Oh yeah, everyone buying the first model year, make sure you come into it ready to have to take it in for a fair few warranty repairs. Both my FRS and my BRZ were early production cars and I've been very lucky to not have many problems, but the FRS did need a replacement axle once under...
Celica was also a GT tho, GT86 is far from a GT. And perhaps if the Celica-spec is more luxury oriented, it could be an apt name? Idk, I'm just guessing here lol. Not even sure if this is true, I'm waiting on confirmation.
VB22 already posted this, but I'll go ahead and post it here too since this thread seems like a more relevant place:

Man, I feel ya. Plus with the ridiculous curvy screens nowadays, glass screen protectors are almost all ill-fitting garbage. Got a couple solid scratches on my OP5, but thankfully they're towards the edges. :banghead:
I'm pretty regularly probing Toyota and Subaru folks about the 86, for obvious reasons, and nobody at Toyota has even once mentioned to me a next gen 86 in development. However, the Subaru folks have said that they're looking into their options for an update.
All this being said, that doesn't...
Under 2900 would be insanely impressive! I was passingly told something about 3100 being an overestimation, but I didn't think much of it. Perhaps I should pay more attention... :D:D:D
So, let me get this totally straight, Akio Toyoda came all the way out to Denmark to show all of Toyota's European dealers the new Supra (of which I have 100% confirmation that styling is not finalized), and then rolled it out for 2 minutes in a dimly lit room?
Toyota has always taken the "Polyphony Digital" approach to their new projects and this is no different. Every single step that the Toyota development team makes is carefully calculated and backed by hundreds of hours of analysis and testing. They are working day in-day out to make the best car...
Hahaha fair enough :bonk:
I should have specified JZA80, as the article states that he drove a '97 S1 Supra, which in its lightest guise (NA Hardtop) was still in the range of ~1400-1450kg. JZs are absolute porkers.
What? No Supra ever weighed 1200kg, that's craziness. Is this a bad translation or something? Evo is a generally reputable source, but strange statements like these call the rest of the quotations into question for me.
If the statement is straight from Tomoyama though, then that should be...
