    the 1997 model still years better than the 2020 model imo

      Agreed, can't compare the Toyota 2JZ to a BMW M4

    It is a legend not a king anymore technology has evolved but not the essence of an mk4. The mk5 is simply a German at heart with a JDM esk shell

    Hey there, sorry I couldn’t watch yesterday I got caught up with some family shit. I like this video a lot. The 2JZ is such a power-potential engine and the supra is such a cool car for that kind of engine to be in. In-line 6s are such great motors in general. I’m so glad you got to drive this. Great video and everything man. Keep it all up! Hope you’re having fun at cars and coffee southlake

    • @TheDutchTexan
      @TheDutchTexan  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I hope everything is ok. Thank you for taking the time to watch the video, I really appreciate it! It’s pretty much like I said in the conclusion. I want one...
      Cars and Coffee Southlake was great, too bad my camera had an overheating fit. Too many hot cars I suppose. The temperature was great for a car show and I drove down without the AC on. Crazy for mid summer!

      The Dutch Texan yeah man everything is gonna be alright. My dad is just battling cancer right now and it’s very stressful for him. I really would love to see a supra in your garage for sure. They are very affordable and very very capable cars. It would be a great addition. Honestly though, for some reason I just can’t see you in a supra lol. You just don’t look like the supra kind of guy but I know you are at heart, and that’s all that matters.
      Sorry the camera overheated. I know that can suck sometimes. Gotta love hot cars though, that’s for damn sure. What happened to your air conditioning again?

    • @TheDutchTexan
      @TheDutchTexan  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @@noblevengeance312 I am sorry to hear that, I hope your dad beats the crap out of it!
      And a Supra would be one of the cars I would have, classic American Muscle is still the #1 step I will take if I ever get to the project car stage!
      And the AC is fine, no problems there (knock on wood). The a6xxx series has an overheating problem. I am still waiting to upgrade. I won't until 4K60 makes it in Sony's alpha lineup. They use the same batteries I use now, so it makes sense to stay with the a series. And the later models seem to be better with the overheating thing.

    • @noblevengeance312

    I'm kicking myself because I had the opportunity to buy this car last year - low km, garage kept, owned by an elderly man. Was selling it for only $6000!! I wish I could go back in time and buy it, I hesitated and it was swiped up.

    that bit about the retail value about the Supra VS F355 is so true though.
    i can totally imagine it being the other way around now a days

    • @TheDutchTexan
      @TheDutchTexan  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s weird. I personally really like the F355 if I am completely honest. It was one of the last Ferrari’s that held on to that iconic 80’s styling architecture with some 90’s mixed in.
      But, if I had to chose? Totally Supra. Even with the Supra tax it would be cheaper to keep on the road.

    • @The_One_Over_There
      @The_One_Over_There 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      i like the F355 too but i'd go for a Supra as well. It fits my style better and they're indeed cheaper to keep. Flexing on Ferarri's would be a fun little bonus XD

      The prices keep going up, that's for sure! I wonder where they will plateau. I think a big reason why they are going up is the MKV not living up to the hype at all.
