I asked that question earlier.

Trying desperately to tell of the next gear was the same ratio (supporting guff theory)

Or a different ratio (fingers crossed)

Its difficult to desipher due to the friggen clanking at 3:30 sounds like they already blew a cv lol. Nearly made me go deaf, I had the video cranked trying to listen for a gear change.

I think the 3:30mark is indeed some kind of gear change look how much the car sped up while staying at a relatively low rpm I'm thinking a 2-3 shift maybe?

At the 4:22 area it looks as if the driver makes a gear selection with his right hand. I could be wrong but a few times you see only his right hand disappear as if to make a change.

Those def aren't 275 tires on it. Maybe just for snow duty they swapped shoes. Looks like 205 or 225 imo.

You think it could be the snow slushing and slapping off of the wheel-well liner? My IS350 sounded alot like that in the snow.

The desire of manual is wanted so much.

It could also be an auto like the 86

@administrator....let's get a poll up for the name of the car.

Since there is nothing officially stating the production name, and most people assume it will be called a Supra...let's get a poll up for some names (i.e., Supra, GT1, 3000GT, Other, etc...).

My vote is "GT-1"

Anyone else really wondering how that door is going to look? If you look at the light reflecting around 3:03-3:04 off the rear quarter panel you can see that side vent really swoops down far towards the door......I like it
