- 2021 3.0 Supra

After having an M4 and M235 I finally decided to join in on the fun and pulled the trigger on an absolute white Supra.
Why a Supra? mainly because of my experience with the previous car I owned but also with my time renting a 996 Carerra for my birthday through Turo 7 years ago. The 911 gave me so much pleasure behind the wheel, "feels" I thought I would get from an M4 or similar level car. But while I had tons of fun with the M4 it never responded the way I really wanted it to when driven around corners, and that all boiled down to one reason: The M4 is a Sedan and I needed a Sports Car. Yes, the M4 is a great track car and can go crazy quick around the Nurburgring but when it comes down to what's most important, the feel behind the steering wheel, well the M4 is based on a 328i so it tends to drive like it's on rails instead of "surfing" with roads.
On top of that I'm a fan of Japanese cars from the 90s and early 2000s so the partnership with BMW and Toyota is like a dream combo for me
I haven't had my Supra long, in fact, I got a puncture on day 7 and MPSS tires are HARD af to come by (Damn you Toyota for not upgrading to PS4S tires) but I can already tell I have something special
