Dude.... don't ever sell that beautiful car. Your videos are the moral support I need every time I question why I bought a car with no back seat. I have no idea why you don't have 100k subscribers already. Not all heroes wear capes. Keep it up!
It's a fantastic car. I had a 2020 for 3 years. Traded it in for a C8 corvette. That chevy was nothing but a headache. Misaligned panels. Transmission errors. Hell nah. Just recently picked up a 2023 Supra for a good deal. All is right in the world.
@@TheRealCatof Sportscar aficionados such as I belong to a different breed. Some people spend big money on boats, motorcycles, or even photography equipment.
In defense of Corvette, its so cheap car in america, they had to cheap out in many parts. While Gr supra is quite expensive car for its class, they have the money to built a more reliable car out of it
I hated on this car so much when I first came out as I’d had 3 mark 4s previously. It took time but this car slowly stole my heart. I bought a 2024 in January and I’m absolutely in love with it for all the reasons you talked about.
I have a 21 Gr 3.0 Premium in Nitro Yellow. The car is my weekend/nice day car. It pushed 450WHP/500TQ and it’s a blast to drive. The outside is stock expect springs/ wheels and meaty 305s in the rear. It turns heads every single time.
24 lightning yellow in manual keep it totaly stock with just akra slip on akra linkpipe with drop in bmc filter purely for sound and resonse the car is more then fast enough best car i ever own glad to know that it will probally run trouble free especially in this setup with good care.
Great video! I've owned 2 Toyota Supras, over the past years. Drove them well past the 150,000 miles range. Just do your maintenance, wear and tear repairs, they will give you great service. 😊
If it were just me I had to think about, I'd have gotten myself a Supra. But, unfortunately, I have a gf and sis to carry, so it's not practical for me. But I hope your channel blows up and can keep the Supra!!
Great to know! I just bought a 22 Supra with 20k miles on it. I also heard that if you mess around too much and blow the motor, a replacement engine only costs 6k, which is kinda crazy considering the price of the vehicle.
The BRZ and GR86 are from two Japanese manufacturers, so it's a JDM car. That's why people are not upset about it, while the supra mark5 is German. The 2JZ isn't entirely Toyota Yamaha had some involvement in the design of the engine, and Yamaha is a Japanese brand. JDM enthusiasts wants JDM, not Euro.
Stop spreading this BS. 2JZ was not a Yamaha design. Cant stand idiots spreading total BS confidently like its 100% correct. The 1jz head was a Yamaha collaboration. There is not a single part in a 2jz head that is Yamaha. If you owned one you would know. Not a single shred of evidence exists to support this BS claim from people who obviously have never owned a 2J. Its entirely an inhouse Toyota design.
@@VunLee1but the Zs engine is Japanese and most of the car is Japanese. The Supra isn't. I owned a 21 Supra for a short while and it drives and feels just like a German car. It even had a few small BMWish issues too. Lol
To be honest, among all the Supra videos I've seen, you're not the most erudite or the craziest Supra content creator. However, you've shown the most love for this car that I've ever witnessed.
Yeah, at this point I’ve come to terms with being a boring, uninformed, ignorant nincompoop. But at least I’m a lover and not a fighter (don’t fact check this with me wife)
Rarely hear complaints due to the GR86 having a subaru boxer engine? For real? People complain all the time idk how you can say that. It has typical subaru reliability issues that lead to engine failure, most notably lack of oil pressure in turns/spins. Want to do a donut or take a turn really aggressively at a track? Say bye bye to your engine. Toyota will decline warranty even though they track and rag on the car in advertisement videos... That car would have been miles better and more reliable with their boosted 3 cyl. Otherwise good video. Personally love the new supra, wasn't a fan at first but it grew on me.
I have a ‘21 with low mileage, as it is a fair weather toy. Love the car and got a really good deal at time of purchase (new). I think about selling it sometimes but don’t know what I would replace it with.
BMW sure knows how to build a turbo inline 6. Even the N54 being their first turbo iteration, it was a beast for an non-closed deck aluminum block. I can only imagine how potent the B58 is. Waiting on '25 MY. Glad you mentioned the Mclaren F1, everytime some clown calls it a BMW I make sure to remind them what engine went in the F1. As an ex E92 owner, you can only appreciate the hate in the way you do, - with dry sarcastic humour directed at the brain dead. Those same people that buy tesla or only apple products..
If they were to develop a new engine similar or better than the 2JZ. The supra would of been unaffordable to most people even at sticker. Im talking like 100k+
@@777dderek I’m talking hypothetically, if you could have the exact same/new 2JZ or this B58 for the same price. Which one would you choose? Most people would chose the 2JZ. It is a more robust engine.
and the maintenance cost is much higher like BMW or Toyota prices? I think this question is interesting because Toyota's quality/price is very good, while BMW is quite expensive.
Yeah, most of the hating, especially initially is due to herd mentality. Most people are afraid to swim against the tide. The whole of Toyota’s reputation is built on reliability. No one thinks Toyota = Top of performance. It’s reliability. So if I was a betting man, I will place my bet on that they will not just put that reputation in Jeopardy, which in turn will make me bet on the Supra being a good car.
Totally agree with why the hate on the MKV Supra. You have Aston Martin using previous iterations of Mercedes engine and electrics but all people say is how good it looks or how well it drives. Such bias.
I have a mk5 with 2.0 and I am also happy with it, maybe I don't have the performance of 3.0 but there is no place to use it in my area without a ticket 😅
The gr86 biggest weakness is the engine. I have a first gen, and won't buy a second because I don't want another subaru engine. Also I don't like the body lines on the side. If the lines where to continue or the side they don't match up well to me.
Hey Supra bro ..I have a 2020 GR Supra premium with 5k miles on it. I own a barber shop so if you're ever in Myrtle Beach/ Surfside Beach SC stop in the shop and I'll hook you up with a cut on the house. Greg's "Looking Good" Barber Shop 👍🏼💈😎
coming back here cuz some doo doo head keeps stalking my reddit comments every time I say something positive about the supra. "the bmw plastics are horrible its a trash car". he also claims he owns one but because of how he says his ownership experience is so trash with just 25k miles, I seriously doubt that. hopefully he doesn't find this comment. have you had any part failure or degradation that you know of? this car is honestly like my attainable dream car and since I'm a huge softie it kills me to have people saying unproductive and volatile stuff about it.
I highly doubt he owns one, if he hates it that much he would’ve sold it 😂 no part failures whatsoever for me. As far as degradation goes… the only obvious one I’d say is how thin the paint is. It chips easier than most cars. I also have a couple scuffs on the steering wheel because my jeans button scrapped against it 😒. But that’s it. Over all, I’d say it’s pretty high quality for the price. Of course there’s weaknesses like with every car… but the 3.0 Supra is definitely a bang for the buck imo. Has been reliable for me. Hope this helps and you’re able to own one soon!!
speaking for the people that have been called haters for not liking this "supra" i must say we dont care , toyota made the gr Yaris during the same time bmw was making the "supra" toyota then chose to not try making the car look remotely like an mk4 evolution , like having the mk4 cockpit style or having tail lights like the gtr r 35 has , as you may know the gtr is not a skyline by law but the tail lights says fuck that only the real ones know . thats why we wont buy the new bmw
It’s weird to me that people talk about the collab with BMW like it’s a bad thing. 🤦♂️ I think the majority of people who bitch about it would love to have an mk5 in their garage but can’t afford one. 🤷♂️
I dumped my 2021 Supra because of oil consumption of 1 quart over 700-1,000 miles. 3 different Toyota dealers didn't know how to work on the car. They send 1 tech per dealer to a 3 day training course at BMW and they barely know anything about the car or ever work on them. Then you're stuck trying to schedule with 1 person's availability at the dealers which is hell. BMW wouldn't work on it because they supposedly needed Toyota diagnostic tools which they don't have. I'm sure there's some good Supras out there, but I don't trust BMW. There's no dipstick on the car, just a 0-1 output oil sensor that deceptively shows you a green bar filled to max that will ALWAYS DISPLAY MAX until it's 1 quart low then it immediately goes to the bottom of said bar add 1 quart ASAP. It's a lie, it doesn't gradually show any oil decrease. 1 quart of oil less than 1,000 miles is a product failure. I picked up an LC500 and forgot the Supra exists, lol
The worst issue of Supra is not mechanical is the interior because this car is so damn uncomfortable and tight in the inside plus the cargo space is so bad designed,2 passengers instead of 5,fake vents and the handle is rough in the corners...But not everything is bad because this car is extremely fast and sound great...If you are short and slim you going to feel comfortable driving this car...but is you are a big man and don't care about comfortable i say that because im 6'5 and i barely fit inside this car ...go ahead buy a Supra is you can...so hopefully the next gen of Supra became more practical...
I wouldn't call it hate but disappointment on the mk5...especially when everyone knows Toyota can really kill it when they build a new product from the ground up...and this is after possibly the most Sports Car of all sports cars..the mk4 and its legacy be it if some like it or not...but the mk5 is good
The mk4 supra wasn’t even popular when it was on sale. It wasn’t until after it was discontinued (and people realized the tuning potential in the mid 2000s) that it became popular.
Ordered my 24 Surpa in January, should get it within the next 2-3 weeks and i am so exited, thanks for these types of videos, sure builds up joy and excitement while waiting on mine to arrive 🫡❤️
@@cloudyskyforever2553 Yes, sir! Ordered it directly from the dealership, however,i should’ve gotten it Mid February but there was a delay with the transport of the car, so now I’m waiting on it to come this month
