THIS Is the Manual Toyota Supra [Official Release]

[aprayiii]

I am unsure what you mean by Toyota may sell a single trim? The press release says "MT available on GR Supra 3.0, 3.0 Premium and a limited A91-MT Edition model". Aren't those considered (multiple) trims?

True - the press release indicates the MT to be available in all trim levels. However, some previously leaked internal documents included an "SE trim". Again, there has been no official confirmation of the SE trim or what this even means - all speculation at this time. Who knows, we may end up getting the GR Supra MT Lightweight as the SE trim ?

Toyota GR Supra Matte White Edition Is Limited To 50 Units For Japan

https://www.carscoops.com/2022/07/t...ite-edition-is-limited-to-50-units-for-japan/

Toyota launched a new special edition of the GR Supra in Japan, called “Matte White Edition”, featuring an exclusive color combination and the newly released six-speed manual gearbox. The model is strictly limited to 50 units for the Japanese market, with Toyota organizing a lottery for the interested parties.

The GR Supra Matte White Edition is distinguished by the Matte Avalance White Metallic exterior shade, combined with black accents on the splitter, side sills, diffuser, mirrors, A-pillars, and intakes, among others. A set of 19-inch forged wheels finished in Frozen Gunmetal Gray is fitted, as well as red-painted brake calipers. This setup looks identical to the 2023 Toyota GR Supra A91-MT Edition offered in the US at a limited production of 500 units.

Inside, we find tan-colored leather upholstery for the seats, the lower part of the doors, the steering wheel, and the center console. More importantly, there is a carbon-fiber plate on the dashboard with “GR Supra” and “Matte White Edition” lettering, plus a cool sketch of the sportscar. There’s also matching carbon fiber trim around the six-speed manual gearbox. The special edition is based on the flagship RZ trim level, coming with all the goodies, including a wireless charging pad on the center console, a USB port, the 12-speaker JBL premium sound system, and the 8.8-inch infotainment touchscreen.

There are no changes under the bonnet where the turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine produces 382 hp (285 kW / 387 PS). Power is sent to the rear axle through the six-speed manual transmission, while lesser trims are also available with the eight-speed automatic. Model year changes in Japan also include revised settings for the AVS (Adaptive Variable Suspension), EPS (Electric Power Steering), and VSC (Vehicle Stability Control) systems.

Pricing for the Toyota GR Supra Matte White Edition starts from ¥7,890,000 ($57,098), making it ¥577,000 ($4,175) more expensive than the RZ trim despite the fact that the only difference between them is the exterior shade and the special badge on the dashboard. In order to get one of the fifty examples of the limited edition, you’ll need to be lucky enough to be drawn in the lottery, for which Toyota is accepting entries between July 20 and August 21.

$57k USD pricing for this is making me feel cautiously optimistic about pricing for the A91-MT in the U.S.

This may just be me, but the tan interior with the RHD setup looks so right

From the FB page - pricing from someone in the UK that is getting an MT. MT is cheaper than the auto there.

Dealers still don't have pricing info apparently but I saw on facebook that dealers in the US and Canada started getting allocations yesterday.

More from the guy in the UK

My guess is that those grey wheels will only appear on the special editional manual transmission cars. It's part of what makes it a special edition.

Personally, I'm much more interested in the regular manual transmission car. My biggest disappointment is the fact that they apparently still aren't doing the passenger side door panel in the red or beige (again, special edition cars) interior colors. That bothers me enough to just go with the all black interior.

I’m very surprised they aren’t offering the adaptive cruise. It’s supposed to be offered on the GRC even with it being a manual and I’ve been curious how that works.

And BMW already has had adaptive cruise control on Manual MINI's for a while now.

Not sure if this was posted yet but it looks like 2023 GR86's are showing on the US Toyota site. No Supra yet though.

The original press release for the US did mention those gray wheels are only for the special edition but it also said the 2023's are getting new wheels. Based on that I'd guess the normal ones are getting the same wheels just in a different color.

On the other hand I've yet to see any 2023 with wheels other than the gray ones mentioned above.

Edit: It may be that just the manuals are getting new wheels?

I’m hoping the regular 3.0MT comes with the same gray wheels as the A91.

Many MT's have cruise control. Even FRS in 2012 had it. I don't think Adaptive is any different.
I've used it many times on FRS. It works just like an AT, you just need to shift yourself.
I really do not remember if it hit the redline or what if you didn't shift. damn memory faded..
