👣 Official: Toyota Announces Manual Transmission Supra!

[Toshi]

I shift an 18 speed at work, I don't wanna shift in my personal vehicle too lmao! But it would be awesome if they do bring out manual option.

Not a chance. The ZF is faster than the stick, and that's the only thing I care about.

I would not, I honestly can’t say I’d buy one even if it came with a manual before. One of the reasons I didn’t enjoy my Mustang was it was stick, the A10 was soooo much faster and all the work I did just to watch the auto be way faster sucked, the high Hp manual car just wasn’t as fun. I work from home so my cars a weekend car and it’s just not as fun as the A10 was or the ZF8 in the Supra for me.

All that said I loved the manual in my ”big turbo” ST. Just for some reason wasn’t my thing in the mustang.

he told me Toyota is coming out with a manual Supra next year.

Sure they are...

 

[Escapist]

Nope, computers can shift faster than any human can.

Ah yes… the weekly “I have a source Toyota is doing x,y,z” thread…

anyone with a bmw “source” hear this rumor for the z4?

I doubt they are doing a manual. If they do then great for them.

I mean they have the option but I highly doubt this is going to be the case. The fact they wouldn’t have done it in the first place as an option to test the market seems odd and the fact they would wait until the Z comes out means they lost a lot of opportunity they would have had otherwise.
either way I wouldn’t be trading mine in. I love the ZF, I sold my manual in order to buy my Supra because I’m tired of stick in stop and go traffic

 

[Meep]

Not really, while manuals are arguably more fun. For track or drag strip purposes, the automatic will always be better. I plan to track the car a lot come spring.

 

[YellowJacket]

I would definitely have chosen a manual if that were an option! I do think the ZF is a great auto...definitely didn't leave me sad like the A8 did in my old Stingray. However Manual would be more fun for good weekend rips and for track days as well.

I've purchased 3 Toyota's since 2018 and 2 of them were from the same salesman. He also owns a Supra as I do, but a 2021 not 2020.
He was at my place last week and we were talking about tuning and racing etc. I asked if he was going to tune once they could crack the ecu on his 21. So he told me he was actually thinking about selling his already. Before I could ask why, he told me Toyota is coming out with a manual Supra next year. I was like, what, really ? and he said yes. It's not public yet but it looks like it will be happening soon.
I think that's great news ! There's a lot of people who would prefer manual or have purchased something else instead so they could have a manual. I at least think there should be the option.
I drove manuals for years when I was younger and I actually just bought a 2021 Tacoma 6 speed manual.

So my question is, would you buy a manual Supra and or trade, sell your existing Supra for a manual ?

No, I haven’t rowed my own gears in decades. I don’t remember it being that much more fun either. The ZF8 goes 1, 2, 3 much faster and smoother than I could.

Not a chance. I'm extremely happy with the car as is.

No

Nope, been giving people the gaperoni and cheese every time a mf wants to find out. Even been taking other auto cars to gapplebees.
