Anyone know what the BMW paint code is for the black/"nocturnal" Supra?

I was, unfortunately, sideswiped yesterday evening. Thankfully no one was hurt and it was relatively low speed, but there is damage to the passenger door, rocker panel, and passenger side front fender panel. I was wondering if anyone has experience with a body shop in the Northern Virginia area...

Just chiming in to say I've experienced the issue but only shortly after cold startup. Presumably it was within the 30 second start-up window that the owner's manual discusses. This was on a 2020 with the brake recall software fix, followed by a bench unlock with an Ecutek tune. I only observed...

You meant that you'd have to leave at 4am to get a decent spot. It was very busy by 6:30am.

4am? Are you coming up from central Virginia or something?

Anyone going to Katie's this Saturday?

I used to avoid CITGO because it was one of the "cheap" gas stations in my area, but ever since I learned their TriClean gas is TopTier, it's my favorite gas station now. It's cheap because CITGO is Venezuelan gas.

I always thought "SPX 40i" was a subtler nod to the BMW collaboration.

This is a very common misconception. BMW did not offer Toyota a menu of platforms and say "Ja ja, just pick ze one you vant," the underpinnings of the Supra and Z4 were codeveloped together. Check out this YouTube video for a comprehensive overview of that effort: After rewatching this when I...

As a former Prius owner (I traded mine in for a 4runner 🤷‍♂️), I think it's an unfairly maligned vehicle. There's this negative perception of the Prius in enthusiast subculture, and unless you've driven the car yourself it's unlikely you'll understand it. The Prius is not just some...

Everyone complains about the wind buffeting as their #1 issue with this car (or perhaps the lack of a trunk button on the back), but I believe ingress/egress is easily the worst part of MKV ownership. It's not a deal breaker obviously but it does make the livability ever so slightly worse.

DM sent.

So I took my 2020 Supra into the dealership today to get the brake fluid warning light checked (see this thread) as well as get my 20k service done and state safety/emissions inspection The dealership ended up comping me the inspection because they were out of stock of the oil and brake fluid...

I did the recall reflash on my 2020. Full screen CarPlay is where it’s at. Also, it didn’t prevent me from unlocking my ECU afterwards and running EcuTek. You should go get the recall done.

The new Z has a great ass, though.
