Congratulations on your purchase! I appreciate the thought process that went into choosing your vehicle, glad to hear it’s been great right from the factory. Thanks for releasing these videos alongside your reviews, you always provide fair looks into what features you like and what you’re not impressed with. Sounds like you found a winner here :)
I went back east for a summer and took my wife's m340i xdrive out there to run all the tracks. Signed up for what i thought was summit but ended up on Jefferson circuit. Was still fun but would love to get a lap time on summit.
Dang...I sold my Gen 3 Viper for a brand new 25' Supra Manual. Loved the Viper...I'm a pretty hardcore guy and the Viper was great...just worrying about parts like windshields and stuff. I was driving mine. I think you made the best move...I was in the same boat as you and made the same choice. Also I sold my 21' automatic Supra to buy the Viper....lol I went full circle. Supra was the best car for me....didn't want the C8's auto only.....did the Z thing and honestly its a 370z inside and I owned a 350 and 370z.....miss the old 240/280/280zx Zs I owned.....and the Supra is the modern old school Z more than the current Z is IMO. The new Z is the modern 350/370 iteration.
I test drove a 2023 automatic version of this car. I felt something was seriously off with the suspension and same with the way power is delivered in the low gears. Maybe it was a bad example.
It's pretty stiff in city driving, even with the suspension in the comfort setting. Not sure what you felt with the automatic, they've all delivered power nicely for me from what I can remember.
@@OutMotorsportsthere was a noticeable lag between the gas pedal and power delivery. I checked the forums, apparently it's a thing. I'm not sure how wide spread. My suspension issues were with the rear of the car. I didn't inspire confidence. It's a very pretty car though and the power is great.
@@hamsterbrigadeit is known that the factory alignment is garbage and just needed to be realigned apparently. Many said it was night and day the moment their cars got realigned.
Still loving it! Need to make a follow-up video soon. The buffeting is a huge problem but I bought some of those stick on deflectors that go near the mirror base, and they solve it. Absurd that Toyota let the car go on sale like this but it's a $100 fix that is super easy from the aftermarket.

Glad you enjoyed! Will be sure to post some follow-ups on this one as I rack some miles up :)
Summit Point is my home track and I absolutely enjoy seeing the MKV out there doing laps.
WTF, that thing dynos 400? I had no idea. Cool to see your takes on these cars as somebody who actually has a lot of track experience. Keep it coming.
Congratulations on the new whip, Jake! Looks great!
I loved the track portion! Awesome you’re driving and using your new ride
It's been about 1,000 miles of fun so far!
Yes nice to see the feedback from someone who actually takes his car to the racetrack.
Congratulations Jake. Been on that track plenty of times with the 4c. You know better than me.
One of the better reviews I have seen so far, good work Jake👏👏👏

Jefferson is very fun! We're running an event there in a few weeks, actually. But Summit Main is a blast.

Congrats on the Supra! I still want a 3rd-gen Viper but this is so much easier to live with and use as An Car day to day...

I was looking at the 2022 version but opted for the lexus lc instead

So much torque in the lower gears. Are you trolling? 😂
I’m trying to get one white or Orange 🍊

Recap, how you like the car after 7 months? Lots of wind buffering, i heard you can remove it with aftermarket side mirror guards
