New (and old) SupraMKV members say hello!

[26StratMT]

Well, I had to think long and hard about getting a black car given I live in SW Florida. But I've found the A/C to work extremely well!

Yea I haven’t had any complaints with the AC in Phx either.
Gets cold enough to freeze you out!

Hey everyone, Mark here! Long time lurker, decided to introduce myself after a few years.

Finally back in a Supra and I couldn’t be any happier. 2026 MkV Final Edition MT, purchased last year at the end of June 2025. Drove 6 hours to San Jose and back another 6 in the same day!

I was leasing a 2020 3.0 Premium for 3 years then had the opportunity to get into a GR Corolla - 2023 Core. Was also in a 2021 G80 M3 Comp and 2019 Mk7.5 Golf R. Sold those 2 to get a house and traded in the GR Corolla for the Supra - downsizing was definitely needed.

A quick comparison: G80 felt too much like a simulator, very fast and capable but disconnected. Mk7.5 Golf R was the Swiss Army knife with an ots APR ECU & TCU tune and was incredible with daily and spirited driving, I miss it dearly. GR Corolla had great road feel and was good fun, but the interior felt a lot to be desired. 3.0 Premium was probably the most special feeling car out of the 4 - it felt like an occasion to drive whenever I took it out.

For context before those 4 I had: E92 335i N54 and N55. F32 435i, F36 440i so the BMW influence was strong. I was blessed with the B58 after dealing with N54/N55 problems for years.

Got full body PPF in October and I’ve been dailying it since then. It’s currently under warranty, I’ve decided to stay away from tuning and changing out the downpipe. I dropped in the GR strut brace and an Eventuri intake for now. I have a few other mods in line: Eibach sway bars, MSS springs, verkline endlinks.

Seat time is what I need!

I’m located in SoCal - LAC/OC

Beautiful ride! I’d love to have my car photographed next to the ocean/lake.

I didn’t take the pictures, but the instagram owner tagged below the picture was the one who took it! Love his work.

Hi all, recently picked up a low mileage 2026 absolute zero MT final edition. Was lucky to find one, previous owner took really good care of the car. Never met him, he traded the car for a new VW at a dealership in Langhorne PA.

Love the car. I'm shocked that a 2026 would be available on the used market already! If you don't mind my asking, what did you have to pay for it? I'm guessing in the mid to high $60K range?

There was a 2500mi final edition in black with auto trans in the showroom where I bought my new 26 prem MT.
They were asking more than the price of a new one, like 79k!

I see a fair amount of like under 3000mi used ones around from time to time.
I think a lot of older folks buy them on impulse then realize maybe it isn’t going to work for them.
They are not easy for older folks to get in and out of and if the person is a bit on the larger size the bottom seat bolsters can be uncomfortable since the seat is pretty narrow.
