But who says it’ll actually be called a Supra? May have a totally different front, back, interior and name. Dont forget, Supra was just a top spec Celica back in the day. Most people hear the word “Supra” and instantly think Mk4. Where as I hear “Supra” and think of a mk2/3 Celica with a 6-cyl squeezed in.

I'll take a picture of the one I have at home after work

A Supra for 30k? Not a chance. The Supra is in a different market segment not to mention it's strictly a 2 seater. Toyota also mentioned that the Supra is compliment a sports car line up, not replace it.

Who knows (apart from Toyota) what the future is for the 86 but as I see it they are two very different cars. Supra a sort of 2 seater luxury sports GT car with electric leather seats and all the creature comforts, a 4 banger just a poverty spec entry car. GT86 more a back to basics road legal track car (ok needs some readily obtainable mods) designed to appeal to a different sector. Pretty sure you can't get a set of wheels in the back of a Supra. As Toyota have registered the trademark GR86 in Europe (applied 18/9/18 - granted 9/1/19) seems likely we will at least get the chance to buy a new Gazoo version in the future even if that is the last variant. Let's be honest, the days of the ICE sports car are numbered due to emission regulations so we have to make the most of what is available and hang on to them as long as we can.

I loved our car the moment I saw it, and love it more after each modification. Had it nearly six years and don't expect to sell it until I can't get in it anymore (being an OAP). If you buy one of these just to keep it for a few years and move on to something else you will likely take a hit. I will never get back the money for the modifications undertaken, and never expected to, but the joy of this expensive hobby comes at a cost that I am willing to pay. The enjoyment I get from just going for a drive in this car is difficult to express in monetary terms. 😊

I switched from res to super-res in my TD setup. It's much better now. It can still be loud when seriously pressing on, but holding speed and cruising on the motorway are no problem. I can hear the radio just fine!

I would 100% recommend it, yes it is a bit of money but it is worth every penny. I Can't explain the difference it makes.
