Go straight to the end. Idk how legit this guy is but he said if the current Supra is a success that in 5 years the next Supra will have a in-house straight six and a manual.

It looks blocked off on the production car. :dunno: https://www.supramkv.com/threads/toyota-gazoo-racing-to-commence-sales-of-gr-supra-gt4-in-march-2020.2734/

I see. Well thanks for what you have shared so far and can't wait to read the updates. Is it too early to put together a wish list so you can forward them to the higher ups? 2+2 Driver focus interior Glow in the dark badges :p

You're right, even with the short wheelbase they could still have pulled it off if they had done something similar to this old render.

Although the car looks better in person vs photo, agree. The short wheelbase and that huge slap of fake door vent was not the best design execution.

Sorry, I wasn't sure what you were talking about. From the reviews I don't consider the 2.0 Supra to be under power at all. No one said it felt slow unlike with the 86. The beef that people are having are the suspensions, open differential, lack of a manual, and many feel that it is overpriced...

We're just going to have to agree to disagree. They have? Most of our own internal polling data says only 10% or so of people would give the 2.0 a second look. According to Toyota themselves they are only expecting a 20% intake rate for the 2.0, and we all know how off their predicts were for...

That's just an odd way of seeing things imo. That's like saying past Supras should have been auto only because both the MR2 and Celica had manuals. The same thing can be said about the Supra no? The 2.0: Porsche Cayman, MB SLC , Audi TT, Jaguar F-type etc can get away with it because of the...

Idk about that. There is huge price gap between the 86 and 2.0 Supra. Toyota said the 2.0 Supra was to bridge the gap between the two. So offering a manual on the 2.0 makes prefect sense from that point of view. You don't say. My prime example was the 2.0 GS. Lexus hope it would boost sales...

Good point, Europe does have a very high number of manual drivers. Maybe that's why the Supra is doing poorly over there. :p So Tada said the 2.0 Supra was aimed towards 86 buyers that want to upgrade. If so, I believe the rate of manual 86 sold in the U.S. has been anywhere from 40-50%. That's...

Going by that we should have seen a manual in the 2.0 because it already exist in base EU Z4. There won't be any benefits if no one buys one and dealers have to sell at a lost in order to just get them off the lot AKA GS 2.0 turbo. Hence why car companies give the axe to poor selling models and...
