Few and far between but extremely loud and annoying.

engine teardown. Timing chain is on the back of the engine... great idea

New engine, revised trans tuning, steering rack, adaptive dampers, VSC, and differential.
The bitterness is strong on the supra forums :rofl:
Interesting, I wonder what 2 more model years will bring. Perhaps the outside will get better looking?
I feel like you don’t buy a Supra unless you are explicitly trying to be disappointed.
That's why you never buy the first run of a car. Serves 'em right, what a bunch of rubes.Quote:

This - at least with an expensive car. I think the same thing will happen to the C8 Vette too after such a significant redesign.Quote:

Yeah I MO the C8 isn't a finished product and the 2nd half of the gen I expect to be improved dramatically. These launch C8's that people are paying admin for will not likely be looked at fondly once GM gets the most out of the chassis and drivetrain in the coming years. The Supra is more of a finished car but the horsepower increase is substantial as it's a seriously fast car for the money. I would probably have some horsepower envy if I purchased a first year Supra.
mkv Supra vs C8

So heavily modified Supra walked by a stock corvette?
Sounds like an awesome car.
Or a completely staged video with about a hundred different variables because it was done on public roads with different drivers haha. Could really go either way.Quote:

I don't think the price is all that different though. If you can afford a 911 then giver, but the corvette makes a tough sell of pretty much anything else.
haha fr tho 100% with ya on that.Quote:

Just got to find a fire sale C7 instead haha.
I wonder if CMP would still 4 square a C8 corvette sale?
I dunno.Quote:

But how do you feel about BMW build quality?Quote:
