I am wondering if any local Supra owner could allow me to at least sit and get a spin in a 2020 - 2023 3.0.
The possibility of my (in the near future) ordering a car that I can't even sit in is disconcerting to say the least.
I am monitoring dealerships for used ones but they are very rare.
Thanks in advance.

Yeah i can take you around, Not a problem. I would say though let me introduce you to the boys cause some guys are still stock. I'd rather have you feel stock power rather than tuned because when you come from a tuned car back into a stock one, you'd think stock is disappointing lol.

Matter of fact, you should see if lexus escondido still has @PearlSup 's phantom... he just traded in for an IS500 F sport. Would be nice to see a buddy of mine's supra in local hands.

Thanks, SD. I'll check it out, although I am primarily interested a new Supra. But because new Supras arriving at dealerships are reserved, I cannot even sit in one. New owners don't appreciate anyone touching their Supras, apparently.

I started a post in the California section of this forum. It looks like Rekadae lives in my area, so I messaged him about meeting up.
My last "fast" car (and also my first new car) that I ended up owning for 13 years was a 2001 Corvette. (0-60 in 4.5 seconds), so I know that any 3.0 Supra is quite a bit faster. I have rented some fast cars, the fastest on the street being a 2019 McLaren 570S Spider. I did rent a Ferrari 488 GTB for 5 laps on the Exotics racing track in Vegas. That was not too slow, either.:)

yeah, Phoenix just joined GRSSD about a week ago. Never met him in person yet but sounds promising. He's on BM3 iirc. If you want to feel an MHD car, feel free to hit me up. The best way someone has ever described my car is what @mokleen has told me. "Your car drives like a stock car when it's in normal, but when it's in sport, it's a whole different car."

That'd be great. I'd love to check it out. Thanks for offering! I'll message you about setting up a day and time.
