Respectfully, 15-20 folks posting between here and facebook doesn't constitute much of a reason to hold due to oil consumption. If you want the supra, buy it and enjoy the hell out of it. They come with a full warranty and Toyota will take care of you if anything nutty does happen. Not to simply dismiss your concerns, but there would be a lot more noise if this was affecting every 21 owner.
I'm still waiting to see oil issues on my 2021. I picked it up a month ago with 11 miles on it, I've got a little over 2k now. It's still right where it was. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if it drank a little bit during the break-in, though I haven't seen it yet. I check everyday.
I totally agree with you there. My decision is a bit more emotional. I just know myself and I’m gonna be so bummed out if it happens to me. Especially since this will be my first sports car purchase.
Hi Zack, my oil level didn't start to dip, until about 2,500 miles or so. I guess the average area of concern is around the 3000-4000 mile mark. I hope yours doesn't end up drinking oil. Make sure you drive it like a granny for the first 10-15 minutes until the oil gets up to temp, then by all means drop the hammer.
I forget now, but I can check in the AM, it’s definitely a 2021 build date, Feb I think, but it could be March.
Hopefully that means they will make some more blue ones!
dangg not until august? I might have to pull the trigger on a 2021. Sadly SoCal dealers aren’t very flexible with me so far. Hopefully a deal can be landed on Memorial Day.
~ A 15k mark up... that’s humorous.
Even with the warranty, do you really want your brand new Supra to go through the hassle and getting a new swap? Engine bay/etc will be probably scratched and etc. I know for myself, I definitely don’t want to chance it. Most dealerships can even barely do an oil change on a new Supra. Do you really trust your local Toyota dealership swapping a brand new motor into your Supra? Lol
