Toyota is back with a completely redone and restyled Supra. This one will come with a beast of an engine the unbeatable BMW inline 6. They are not cheap but while the styling is not for everybody, I think it looks great.

I'm betting it's a great car with typical Toyota quality.
I sure hope they're right about a stick being available.

A bit smaller than I could get comfortable in, but a good looking machine...The BMW inline six is bulletproof...:zoom:...Ben
I think manuals are disfavored by the millennials it's too bad but they are the ones that will be buying these cars.Quote:

I would love to have one of the first 1500 Supras that land over here though even if it is an auto, can't do that either.Quote:

I assume these engines are substantially upgraded in power, but service costs on upkeep on my bimmers has made me look elsewhere. Don’t want anything to do with them despite their more comprehensive warranty program now. The straight six configuration is inherently smooth running though.

Interesting article. I had a 5 series 1992 BMW with the inline 6. Put 275,000 on it with no engine problems ever (can't say that for the rest of it). It was pulling like the day I bought it when I sold it for 3 grand.
Simply too small for my liking.
