  1. 2020 Supra and BMW M240i?

    Absolutely. Even in 10-15 years the Supra will have a collosal assortment of aftermarket parts ranging from simple lowering springs to custom made boot lids with integrated wings! On the mlite meets that I have attended most engine mods that people do up their power to 450hp or 530hp. Going...
  2. 2020 Supra and BMW M240i?

    Because of the high depreciation, the M240i and even 440i can be very expensive on finance. I was fortunate to buy My M140i last year when BMW offered a 33% discount on factory orders. It will be interesting to see how the next generation M240i due next year will compare against the 2021 Supra...
  3. New Toyota software updates for the 2020?

    In October 2019 Alpina announced the 3-Series G20 based B3. Everyone expected it to use the B58 like the M340i but instead it is powered by a detuned version of the S58 in the X3 M and is mated to a ZF8 instead of a DCT. This was highly unexpected as the new M3/M4 haven't even debuted yet with...

    In that case, the most warranty friendly way to extract more performance out of your Supra is by using tyres that are optimal for your climate. That could allow you to apply more throttle without wheelspin than 2021 owners. Either way the 2021 changes are just that beginning. BMW have allowed...
  8. New Toyota software updates for the 2020?

    The B58 is a bullet proof engine. A stage one tune will add 40-70hp without doing the engine any harm. You can use JB+ or an app on your phone. Both of which can revert to stock in just 10min. This is why Toyota our the B58 in the Supra. It's easy, cheap and reliable to tune of you want a bit...
  9. 2020 Supra and BMW M240i?

    The Hatchback does not have the sleek looks of the Supra but the practicality makes it a very easy car to live with. Unlike the Supra it has big door bins. Today I put a big double pram in the boot and last month my girlfriend has four other women in the car. It's our second family car. The B58...

  13. The 2021 News Really Bums Me Out / Buyer's Remorse

    Very few cars are immune to depreciation these days. Ferrari, Porsche and Lamborghini all create obsolescence by releasing never ending new models. The Supra will be in production for a good 5-7. Expect a manual variant, one with iDrive 7 and Android Auto and even an S58 or N58 variant. Be...
  14. 2020 Supra and BMW M240i?

    There are countless of Supra vs M2 comparisons but hardly any comparison of the Toyota against the M240i. I have an M140i and drove the Spura two months ago. My BMW has the same B58 and ZF8 gearbox as the Supra, The M140i/M240i were BMW’s first Mlite cars. A half way house between a regular...
