Iām optimistic that a manual transmission MkV is coming soon. There have been reports and rumors saying that manual transmission will be released in 2022 for the 2023 model year with the 3.0-liter I6 engine.
I just wonder how much more exciting the MkV Supra could have been if itāll be fitted...
Rumors have been saying that the upcoming 2021 GR86 will receive a new NA 2.4-liter engine. Finally, more power. But it still wonāt be turbocharged. I believe Toyota wouldnāt allow the GR86 to be more powerful than the Supra. Besides, they cater to different markets and age groups. Maybe the...
Next-gen Toyota 86 is coming soon... just curious how will it compete with the Toyota Supra 2.0-liter 4 banger? Also, it will come with a standard manual transmission.

If comparing the new Toyota Supra to the Tesla Model 3, why not just wait for Porscheās 1st all-electric Taycan, which will be unveiled on September 4th. Just a month away.
Daily driving it, for sure the ZF8HP is the more practical choice. You can totally rest your left foot. The transmission has been used by a lot of premium automakers including Lamborghini, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce, to name a few. This transmission is the best in its class; and Toyota wouldāt...
Itās for pure driver involvement. Thatās what purists want and need. Rowing your own gears is something that feels very rewarding if you know how to do it properly. Itās fun!
I believe modern Toyota sports cars feel hybridized. Personally, Iāve driven both the 86 and BRZ, and the twins feel like both; it can feel like a Toyota and/or Subaru. I believe the same applies to the Supra/Z4 partnership. Bottom line is....modern Toyota sports cars are good and enjoyable to...
