I’m optimistic that a manual transmission MkV is coming soon. There have been reports and rumors saying that manual transmission will be released in 2022 for the 2023 model year with the 3.0-liter I6 engine.

I just wonder how much more exciting the MkV Supra could have been if it’ll be fitted with a manual transmission enthusiasts around the world have been craving for quite some time already.

Anyone else guessing that Toyota won't be doing a facelift at this point given how far we are into the 5(or 6) year production cycle?

Maybe they will be like Honda with the NSX, don't think it got a face-lift till the final model Type S and make it limited.

The only thing I could see happening is maybe the new front bumper like the GT4 Race car with the air opening in the front. I wonder though if with a refresh if they have to perform new crash testing.

I'm really really suprised they made a manual so who knows what they will do in the future.

This: ? it is ugly as hell, an afterthought, but there's a design out there, so who knows..

Does anyone remember the Toyota commercial back in June of 2021? It had a yellow bumper on the wall that was different then the cars.

I think it would be pretty cool to see the full FT1 bumper like in this YT video.
