Hey Bro, I think I just passed you on my way back to Tulsa from Texas. I was admiring a super nice silver supra on the oncoming traffic when I realized the car looked exactly like yours lol. If it was you, glad to see you on the road and your ride looks even more amazing in person.
Thanks Logan! Yeah for sure, glad that I've had the opportunity to show people that this platform lasts. Of course some people have had different experiences, but I'm blessed to have a rewarding experience with my car. Miles will keep getting piled on!
You'll never go back to 4 cylinder turbos ever after getting into 6 cylinder turbos. I had a1998 Eclipse GSX, owned it since new, and owned it for 13 years. During the 13 years, I had a 16G turbo upgrade kit that only made 330whp on stock block. Did not want to push it too much on stock block. I sold eclipse, and saved up, bought a house, refinanced the house and then cashed out a 2017 BMW M2. After nearly 8 years later now, I've only put 12k miles on the OG M2. I'm still loving my M2.
Damn, in half of the time you owned the GSX, I've had like 5 Subarus. I'll probably end up buying another one later (idk I'm a masochist) and will probably just do FBO E85 on stock turbo. Just does not make sense to have a big power 4 cylinder and then this car. Wow though, 8 years with the M2. Definitely drive that thing more :)
@@Joolz1982you’ll be fine if you drive and maintain responsibly: oil changes every 3-5,000 miles, synthetic oil, transmission oil every 60k miles, warm up after cold start, cool down after heavy loads, redline only after car is at optimal temp. (Usually 5 minutes after coolant has reached optimal temp. If you don’t have an oil temp gauge fyi), don’t lug, etc. Of course you’ll have other minor wear and tear, but the bones of the engine/transmission/turbo should be good. 👍
Been watching your videos for a while now, always great and super in-depth! I just picked up my 2020 Supra Launch Edition. Exactly how I wanted it, white on the outside and red on the inside. I remember first watching your videos from a while back on dailying the supra and what kind of mods to get and I'm finally so excited to be part of this platform now. Appreciate you and keep making dope videos.
Thanks for the ongoing support Hussain! Congrats on the pickup, those are nice. Glad to have you join the club, excited for you to make it your own! Definitely will continue documenting the ownership journey for you all. Stay tuned!
I’m in the process of changing my viewpoint on vehicle ownership. I’m a sneaker head and have shoes I don’t wear clothes I don’t wear etc. I do my cars the same way but videos like this are helping me to realize that cars are meant to be enjoyed and driven and not babied(unless it’s some exclusive exotic shit). Excellent video ur conversation style is easy to watch. Dope car.
Glad to help bro! I'm a sneakerhead too and I started wearing them all so they can also be enjoyed. Completely agree about the exclusive car, if it's like some crazy Porsche or Ferrari that is extremely rare, then yeah I wouldn't probably pile the miles on it, but if it's a regular production car, you sure as hell know that I will be driving the crap out of it lol hope the channel grows more and allows me to get another car that people wouldn't typically think about driving a lot.
I’ve owned my 22’ 3.0 Premium for 1year and 6months. 5,300 miles. I’ve been doing Amsoil 0w20 every 2500miles and Amsoil PI performance improver used and Amsoil Upper cylinder lubricant. And mods I only have MST intake, AEM chargepipe, and AOS verus and lowering springs mods. She runs like a dream.
Just wanted to say on your opening cinematic, genuinely one of the best ones I've ever seen. most of these car edits are overdone with crazy beats and song synced cuts every 2 seconds. You made a really original (super chill) car edit 👍
Wow, thanks so much for the high praise! I just try to keep it simple because well...first thing is it's just not my style to do those super fast cuts with crazy angles. It's hard to appreciate the footage/video when stuff keeps changing every 2 seconds like you said. There's always room for improvement, but I really appreciate the feedback!
Thanks Brother, I have a 2022 CF-Edition with 600 miles. Make me feel so good about my car after your video. I have all the parts to get 600HP at the tire....I'm in piece now....
Have a paid off Supra GR 3.0 but would love to get a C8 corvette but it is out of my price range. Cheapest is like near 100k for the absolute base corvette c8
The wind buffeting, to dealing with burning oil right from day one, and constantly having to take it to the dealership because of non stop error codes and limp mode issues to the weak sound system, it was just such a hassle. Honestly, It was an instant regret getting it. It took that entire 6 months of owning it to find a new buyer as well, not many interested in this platform.
+1 on PPF right away. I looked into it when i first got mine, but ended up passing on it. I just paid a decent chunk to repaint my hood, waiting for it to cure, then taking it to get PPF. To new buyers: PPF before anything else!
@@jerm_ Yeah I've driven one and it's not the fastest in a straight line, but the visceral feel and experiencing it on a circuit was breathtaking. Have a video on it, didn't do too well in terms of views, but I'm so blessed to be able to experience it.
Awesome video and I agree with you on so many points about this car, I'm coming from an FA20 based WRX that I went Full bolt ons and running a full E85 flexfuel tune, you know the usual dyno at 375whp 350wtq. I have done all my mods and maintenance in my garage, and watching maintenance and modifications on the Supra really amazes me at how much easier and better results you get from working on that B58. I can not even remember the last time my WRX ran properly, I would always have oil consumption issues on and off again, running super rich almost all the time, constant check engine lights, constant fixing my car at home, constant worrying about police and California state ref tickets, constant just worrying about my car breaking down. It was great fun but I was shocked to race a stock 3.0 supra, really put a reality check on me. Few months ago, I had a valve spring suddenly explode and send shrapnel all throughout my motor, chipped my pistons couldn't hold compression and just broke down on the freeway. I love Subaru, but I am just so over it, dealing with so many problems to have a fast car. I wish I had considered a supra or a b58 based platform 4 years ago when I got my WRX brand new. Anyways, rebuilding the motor, looking to sell, and for sure looking for a used 3.0. I test drove a 3.0 and it blew me away, the cabin size is so small, the way the car feels when you accelerate and watching the nose of the car lift up, and the ZF8 transmission shifts so fast that I don't even think I will miss driving manual. I love it, its such a huge change from the WRX, I can not wait to get into one.
Thanks for taking the time to watch! Sorry to hear about your WRX and all the issues you've been having. I do share the sentiment though because as much as I loved the Subarus I've owned, there was always something up with them, whether it was user error or not. Eventually got tired of it and moved to the FK8 Type R which I had for about 9 months which I then sold for the Supra. I remember thinking to myself "where has this been all of my life" when I test drove this exact car. If you daily the car, I would recommend the ZF8 as it's awesome with daily duties. There's a good reason why they put this transmission in so many cars, it's that good. Definitely try out a manual Supra if you get a chance, I wouldn't say it's as good as an STI transmission or the FK8, but it's better than the WRX and pairs really well with the B58. Can't go wrong with either route, but I hope you're able to jump into one soon!
@@VinceChristmastree It has been awesome, I test drove a manual one, I had a blast, but I could not justify a 10k difference for the only few ones in my area. Then I test drove a couple of automatic ones as well as a 2022 M340i. I really knew I wanted the automatic one and so finally got my hands on a 2021 premium as the second owner for the price I wanted. For now I do not want to be modding and going FBO and crazy E85 like I did with the WRX so I was okay with a locked ECU (maybe just a downpipe for sound) but I know the mod bug is gonna get me eventually. I absolutely love this freaking car. Such a rowdy car, I love the size of it even for being 6ft tall I fit perfect. I love the technology and I’m almost certain this is going to be a keeper car for the years to come. Watching a lot of your videos with your supra and your fellow supras in your area makes me feel like I made a truly satisfying purchase too. Thank you!!
Interesting journey so far, thanks for sharing it with everyone! I'm on month 6 of waiting for a premium MT..I know people have waited over a year but almost feels like i'll never be allocated one lol.
@VinceChristmastree yeah I totally get that. I have 3 deposits down across Ohio which I thought would secure me one sooner but I may have to be more aggressive.
Holy cow, that's pretty nuts. One of my buddies put down a deposit for 5 different places trying to get his C U Later Supra. Did the dealer at least give an estimate for time?
Revisiting this after 5 months. I currently drive a GR Corolla right now but I might actually switch to the GR Supra since prices are pretty good right now. Gyatttt
@@mattpapa03 if I get one do I have to do a down payment? I’m a female and I want to start getting into cars I’m planning on getting a Supra in a few months
Saving to get one of these next summer. Your build is perfect man, beautiful car. Didn’t know the engine bay could look that good too wow dude. Great vid!
I know what you mean about people wanting to race. When I was driving home in my 2024 45th Mikan Blast from the dealership, a guy in a very loud Charger pulled up next to me on the highway, and then blasted off. My car has a dealer-applied temporary plate in the back, so people should know I'm breaking it in. Today, two guys in a Sonata N flew by then slowed down with their windows down so that I'd slowly pass them. Now if I weren't breaking in the engine, I'd probably blast by and then coast back to cruising speed.
I can't imagine dealing with that with a loud color like the Mikan Blast. Congrats on the purchase! I have yet to see on in person. Those break in miles will fly by quick! Every time I visit my hometown, I always get some random people revving and doing flybys. It gets old lol
Thanks for the stone chip stuff mine also 15-20 on my bumper and hood altogether. I just touch mine up. My GT86 also used to get loads on its super soft paint. Seems they only ever go to primer and not metal. Crazy only minor issues with the Mods you have done. Agree such fun to drive and yes people stare, shout Supra stuff and all sorts.
Yeah mine is too far gone to touch up sadly. It's held up amazingly. Modern technology has come a long way and the gen 2 B58 is known to be pretty reliable. Still get a decent amount of attention lol
Mans got good taste. My dream car is also a GT3 RS, and I am probably going to get a Supra in the meantime. It would be funny if you also started out with a Porsche 986/MR-2 like me.
Close though. My very first car was a Toyota Camry and wanted a subaru with a flat 4 as my sports car. Turned out I got a porsche 986 with a flat 6 instead because it was cheaper :P@@VinceChristmastree
People's obsession with mileage on vehicles anymore dates back to older vehicles from the 70s and 80s, 90s where a car that had 100k miles was pretty much considered toast. Meanwhile, today's Vehicles, 50,000 - 100,000 miles, the car is coming alive. Drive it!
I didn't know that! Thanks for the information! Completely agree with driving it, I always encourage fellow Supra or just sports cars owners to drive their cars and they'll last as long as you take care of it.
Funny he says that😅 its the opposite for me no one wants to race me :/ in my supra but when i had my GTI was a different story 😅😅 keep it up bro love your vids
I bought mine brand new, and with 1500 miles on the dash, I went to a lone industrial street to rip a few donuts, man this thing is crazy. Its fun seeing videos of modded ones and I can't believe I have one parked in my garage. Sadly I'd have to femto unlock the ecu but for now i think stock is plenty fun. I agree, everyone wants to race you, its annoying, but i just ignore them and keep driving normally. Cus i aint got shit to prove and too much to risk for some random.
Yeah stock wise it's definitely no slouch, modifying it amplifies it even more. I love sharing the car, but I agree with you, you just want to go about your day without being disturbed lol
Can't wait to get one hopefully later this year early next year, gonna be my first two door car and every video I see sells me even more on it 😂 thx for the video
This guy has the biggest balls as an automatic driver for even admitting manual would be fun but still enjoying his car very much, I can’t even imagine owning a manual Supra😭 I need one👌
I've been pretty lucky to drive 4-5 manual Supras and it's more enjoyable to drive in terms of driver engagement. I prefer the auto for driving it a lot, but if it was to serve as a weekend car, then manual would be the way to go. If you get a chance to drive one, I highly recommend it.
Thanks Ken! You got it man. Never thought I would be in this position, but very blessed to. It's very rewarding to daily drive and no drive is ever monotonous with the Supra :)
Did you shoot this in downtown BA?? I live like 10 minutes here and I’m so close to getting my hands on a Supra. Your channel, advice, and experience is definitely going to be a huge help for me!! (My dream car is also a gt3 RS 😂)
I’m 2 and a half years in to mine but mine is a 2021 2.0 with the b48 engine I got mine new with 52 miles on the obd I still get compliments even if I do talk down on it a little bcz it’s a 4cly but in the end I love it I daily it and try to take care of it
At the end of the day, who cares, as long as you enjoy it! The B48 Supra is still fun and makes for a good twist and turn car with less weight in the front.
Can't go wrong with either! I have not had the chance to drive an F87 M2 yet surprisingly, but I have driven the G87 and it's a great car. Much bigger than the Supra, but it does not drive like it. If you do want back seats that can actually be used by normal sized humans, then go for the M2. If you just need two seats and want to experience the B58, then Supra. Hope that helps!
Very nice car man! I’m on the fence of trading in my 22’ Lexus IS 350 F Sport for a Supra. I’ve modded it to perfection, but I’m honestly missing the performance aspect. It’s decently fast but it gets zero attention which is crazy considering how good it looks. Perhaps it just had to do with where I live. What’s the maintenance been like for this car? Do you take it to the dealer to get worked on? Wondering if that’ll be an issue for me to have regular maintenance done to the car. If I were to get one, I’d daily it. Would your recommendation be to get the 2020 year? I’ve heard about some of them burning oil and that slightly worries me. Thanks man!
Sorry for the late reply! Thank you! I do love how the new IS' look, very sleek and does not get the attention it deserves. I think it does look better than competitors including the BMW 3-series. Maintenance has just been your usual oil changes and other fluid changes. Of course change pads and other stuff as needed. Nothing really out of the ordinary from a regular commuter car surprisingly. This car will never see the dealer (except one time due to electrical stuff). I usually do my own work or take it to a local shop near me (@iautowork in DFW). If you plan on just keeping it stock performance-wise, then you should be fine. 2020s if you do not want to go pay to have your ECU shipped out to be able to modify it. There are some unicorn 2021s that can be tuned, but they are very very rare. The oil burning issue as far as I'm aware was limited to some 2021s.
The warranty on my c7 stingray is going to be up in a couple yrs. This is probably somewhere around the top of what i want to replace it with when that day comes.
@@Yggdrasill8 Trans went at 50k. I wouldn't own one without warranty. Cost of maintenance I'd say is comparable to that of a camero or mustang with the exception of the brakes. Z51 brakes you have to change the rotors with the pads which isn't cheap.
Sorry, just saw this. Not a professional by any means, but from my standpoint as an enthusiast, an aftermarket stock location turbo will be your best bet. Adding port injection and flex fuel will definitely get you there. For 500whp, all you will really need is a downpipe and E50 tune since the stock turbo will get you there. Anything past 550whp, you will need to look into a bigger stock location turbo. To hit 700, you'll need fueling (PI and E70).
I'm actually thinking of pulling the trigger and getting one, I own an EVO X. But, I want something new. I'd like to find a stick, you can have so much fun in an automatic. I'm curious if if i mod it do i need a tune right away?
The B58 is really fun paired with a manual. I highly recommend test driving one if you can. If you add a downpipe or intake, you can run the stock tune whether it's catless or catted. However, if you plan on adding anything else, it's definitely recommended. I'm not super familiar with the 4B11 platform, but I know some 4 cylinder platforms need to be tuned for every little change that is made.
Thanks so much! Still a decent amount, I don't get stopped as much when I get gas, but when I'm out and about, I definitely still get compliments from all sorts of people. Even though I mentioned the negative attention I get in the video (people driving like assholes next to me), there's been more love for sure. It's always hilarious hearing people comment "I hated how this car looks when I first saw it, but modified it looks pretty sweet".
I am still debating what kind of spoiler I should get. The kind you have, the classic mk4 Supra spoiler, or a wide spoiler but I tbh don’t like them on this car.
Q60 is pretty nice and practical! Hopefully the used prices go down and dealers stop smoking crack on the new ones so people can snag them for MSRP. It's been super rewarding driving the car!
Vince, been watching your videos for a while when I was making 65k a year. told myself I would buy it when I make 6 figures, now I am and am still worried, I dont know why. My career has a lot of room for growth in terms of salary and is stable IMO. I know you aren't a financial advisor, but my situation is hard to figure out. Currently 22, and take home 6k/month after taxes, 401k, etc. fixed expenses would be roughly 1-1.5k a month leaving me with 4k/month as a even estimate. I have enough to buy a used Supra if its around 50k, but am scared of ones with 10-20k miles as I don't know how maintained it was, if it was beaten on, had a good first 500-1k miles before hard pushing, etc. I'd look for a 2020 because I want it unlocked so I can control the burbles and that's about it. I know this is not a lot of information to work with but what would you do? any advice is appreciated.
Thanks for the support man! It's a big purchase regardless of how much you make so I understand. Getting a used car definitely has its pros and cons. Burbles is possible with all of the tuning options so go with one that fits your budget, whether it's EcuTek, BM3, MHD+, etc. On EcuTek and I believe BM3, your tuner can enable the controls for burbles. I am going to do another buyer's guide for the Supra, but I would say get the CarFax, do an independent PPI on the car you're looking at and make sure that they note if the car was returned to stock and if you want to be extra cautious, see how many times the ECU has been flashed, do a compression/leakdown test to make sure the motor is healthy. Hope this helps!
@@VinceChristmastree Thank you Vince, glad to see how far your videos have came and how every time I watch the cinematography gets even better. Can't wait to see when you're at the 100k mile mark.
@@VinceChristmastree But in terms of getting an independent PPI, ensuring the ECU hasn't been flashed a lot, and compression/leakdown tests, this would have to be done from a reputable shop, nothing that Toyota Dealership can really do right?
I appreciate it! Probably going to reach the 100k mile mark by probably February or March of next year. Yeah, definitely choose a reputable shop. Don't have the dealership themselves do it unless you know someone trustworthy personally that works there. Of course they would want the car sold so they'll be more inclined to say it's good. If you want to discuss more, hit me up on IG!
What color is your Supra? Is it a color from factory called absolute zero or is it a paint color from a paint shop? I just really like the color and I’m super curious!
I'm not a financial advisor, but even if you can afford the car itself, you need to budget for contingencies and maintenance. The maintenance on this car is going to be quite more than a GR86. A set of tires on this car can run you almost $2k for reference. Check out this video where I cover the costs in detail: th-cam.com/video/hUr1dasBdhc/w-d-xo.html
PPF seems like such a waste for me, $5k to do the car when I can respray the car professionally for $3k. Even just the front bumper for my strat blue mk5 was quoted $1100 for PPF when a respray is $400 (I'll have to do the labor and take off the sensors). Just a hard justification in my opinion.
Agree to disagree. Definitely understand where you're coming from though. Personally, going down this path, I would rather have the original paint and not have downtime to respray the bumper. I'm pretty anal when it comes to the paint so I don't even want to run into the issue of the bumper being a different shade than the car. Right now here's what I have to deal with, either I have to find a replacement bumper ($600-700) or take my front bumper off. I really won't be able to drive the car without the car freaking out so it'll be down for a week or so to get resprayed, which is a no-go considering it's my daily driver. Repainting the bumper requires the paint to cure which is dependent on the temps outside, so 30-90 days. At that point, just with the time and potential downtime, the cost of PPF is justified.
I think ppf is valid, if you only want to protect your front. Genuinely it’s a car on the road and driven a lot.. protecting the whole thing is a waste.. but having your front bumper and carbon fiber secured that’s smart because over time carbon fades from the uv rays so protecting a carbon hood/lip/front bumper is pretty much all you needs don’t go too all our only protect the parts that are revealed the most from the front.
Has anyone ran into “Engine Mount” challenge? I’m at 58K+ miles and was advised that it’s starting to wear off…. looked it up and it seems it’s a pretty common challenge but I’m not how common it really is.
Thanks for watching! I am not a financial advisor by any means as I am just some guy on the internet. I would say is find your footing first financially with your career job so you are not financially strained when moving up to a role that fits more what you're wanting to do with your life. You don't want to be stuck with this type of car and its expenses if you're just working a random job. Even if you find a Supra in the price range you want, that has a reasonable interest rate (if financing), the consumables for this car is pricey. I don't remember if I mentioned it in this video, but a full set of tires for this car can be upwards of almost $1400-1500. The rears only which I change out every year is about $800-900. I would say wait, save up, build a foundation for what you're going to do in your life, then pull the trigger.
@@VinceChristmastree 🫡🫡 woahh thanks for the advice. I have planned everything I can get the car right off the showroom but the problem is maintenance and you have explained it thanks again
Did you pay all cash for yours? It’s my dream car and it’s being discontinued and I’m trying to get a house and don’t know if I’ll make the cut off times 😢
Not directly, but I would recommend these two. This first one I go over some details on why I wish I just went to a top mount from the very beginning: th-cam.com/video/TrHwGoFTqhk/w-d-xo.html This second one is when I go into detail with just going to the top mount once I had it installed and tuned: th-cam.com/video/xTaK_fkMZ9A/w-d-xo.html
It's alright, I'm not an audiophile by any means and I have not had the chance to experience real high quality systems in BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, etc. It's nice and gets the job done if anything!
I recommend the Nitto NT555R2s, they've been great for my daily duties and for hooking when they're warmed up. Not ideal for when it's cold though. Handles decent in the rain. I haven't taken them to the circuit or around to autocross so I'm not the one to ask for that! Hope that helps.
@@VinceChristmastree thanks for the tip. What does it take to warm your tires sufficiently on the street? Have you done any cornering with them on the street or twisty roads?
@@whitemtl370 Honestly, just driving for a bit will warm them up. Not a lot of cornering experience sadly. Choices are extremely limited here in OK/TX. No backroads that we can utilize that are plentiful like in the East or PNW. I've read that Advan AD09s or R888s handle well in corners. The R888s are LOUD though and need adequate warming up to really get grip.
Great question! I am not sure since I have never driven an M2. If you guys will watch it, I'll be more than glad to make a comparison! Or perhaps expand it to compare the Supra to other 2 door GT/sports cars.
From the side, it's like 3" and from the front, after installing the front splitter, it's also 3". I am lowered on Eibach lowering springs though lower the car by 1.7" in the front and 1.2" in the rear.
S/o to this guy for actually driving his car. 🤝🏾
Of course Thomas! Appreciate you!
@@thomashill9501 100% ... im doing the same with my supra ... i hate those people who buys mutiple cars but rarely drive em
I've owned my red 2020 for about 4 years now I have loved every second of it. 50k miles on the dash, no issues, just vibes 😎
Hell yeah Tony! That's what's up. Love to see others driving their car!
Hey Bro, I think I just passed you on my way back to Tulsa from Texas. I was admiring a super nice silver supra on the oncoming traffic when I realized the car looked exactly like yours lol. If it was you, glad to see you on the road and your ride looks even more amazing in person.
Yooo! Yeah that was me, I was literally driving back to Dallas. Crazy. Appreciate the love! Hope you made it to your destination safe and sound.
Keep her going brahhh love to see the longevity of the Supra with spirited driving by an enthusiast
Thanks Logan! Yeah for sure, glad that I've had the opportunity to show people that this platform lasts. Of course some people have had different experiences, but I'm blessed to have a rewarding experience with my car. Miles will keep getting piled on!
You'll never go back to 4 cylinder turbos ever after getting into 6 cylinder turbos. I had a1998 Eclipse GSX, owned it since new, and owned it for 13 years. During the 13 years, I had a 16G turbo upgrade kit that only made 330whp on stock block. Did not want to push it too much on stock block. I sold eclipse, and saved up, bought a house, refinanced the house and then cashed out a 2017 BMW M2. After nearly 8 years later now, I've only put 12k miles on the OG M2. I'm still loving my M2.
Damn, in half of the time you owned the GSX, I've had like 5 Subarus. I'll probably end up buying another one later (idk I'm a masochist) and will probably just do FBO E85 on stock turbo. Just does not make sense to have a big power 4 cylinder and then this car. Wow though, 8 years with the M2. Definitely drive that thing more :)
Oof, your closing in on me 100 miles until I hit 90k.
Niceeee. You might need to have your car sit for a while for me to catch up!
Keep the updates coming lads, wanna know what high mileage is like issues wise.
@@Joolz1982you’ll be fine if you drive and maintain responsibly: oil changes every 3-5,000 miles, synthetic oil, transmission oil every 60k miles, warm up after cold start, cool down after heavy loads, redline only after car is at optimal temp. (Usually 5 minutes after coolant has reached optimal temp. If you don’t have an oil temp gauge fyi), don’t lug, etc. Of course you’ll have other minor wear and tear, but the bones of the engine/transmission/turbo should be good. 👍
Hey man, what do you mean by "don't lug"?@@matto6019

Financed it! I'm still in college, so, I can't afford to pay all cash 😅
Put a good chunk down and traded in my car.@@paperblank6196
I’m in the process of changing my viewpoint on vehicle ownership.

Glad to help bro! I'm a sneakerhead too and I started wearing them all so they can also be enjoyed. Completely agree about the exclusive car, if it's like some crazy Porsche or Ferrari that is extremely rare, then yeah I wouldn't probably pile the miles on it, but if it's a regular production car, you sure as hell know that I will be driving the crap out of it lol hope the channel grows more and allows me to get another car that people wouldn't typically think about driving a lot.

2022 here. Bought it on May 2022, 55,000km already. Just break pads changed. Thought i was the only crazy guy here haha
Wow! You're definitely more crazy than me. If you keep up that pace, you'll have 165,000km in 3 years. Insane! I love it!
Cars are meant to be driven. God forbid you enjoy your car lol. Keeping a car in the garage is just a fucking waste. Good on you my guy 💪🏽
Appreciate it man! Yeah for sure. Life is too short to just have your car(s) sit!
I’ve owned my 22’ 3.0 Premium for 1year and 6months. 5,300 miles. I’ve been doing Amsoil 0w20 every 2500miles and Amsoil PI performance improver used and Amsoil Upper cylinder lubricant. And mods I only have MST intake, AEM chargepipe, and AOS verus and lowering springs mods. She runs like a dream.
Nice! Glad it's treating you well.
Just wanted to say on your opening cinematic, genuinely one of the best ones I've ever seen. most of these car edits are overdone with crazy beats and song synced cuts every 2 seconds. You made a really original (super chill) car edit 👍
Wow, thanks so much for the high praise! I just try to keep it simple because well...first thing is it's just not my style to do those super fast cuts with crazy angles. It's hard to appreciate the footage/video when stuff keeps changing every 2 seconds like you said. There's always room for improvement, but I really appreciate the feedback!
I’ve been running Rotella t6 in my Supra as well since day 1. 52k miles now, runs like a champ.
I’m saying! Don’t doubt the Brotella!
I thought they changed the t6 formula. Less of the additive that was the magic sauce.
Thanks Brother, I have a 2022 CF-Edition with 600 miles. Make me feel so good about my car after your video. I have all the parts to get 600HP at the tire....I'm in piece now....
Nice man! Love the CFs, would love to have one in white. Enjoy it brother!
I sold mine after 6 months for a c8 after having nothing but issues the entire time. Props for sticking it out!
What issues were you having? Sorry that it wasn't ideal man, such a shame. Hope you're enjoying the C8!
Have a paid off Supra GR 3.0 but would love to get a C8 corvette but it is out of my price range. Cheapest is like near 100k for the absolute base corvette c8
The wind buffeting, to dealing with burning oil right from day one, and constantly having to take it to the dealership because of non stop error codes and limp mode issues to the weak sound system, it was just such a hassle. Honestly, It was an instant regret getting it. It took that entire 6 months of owning it to find a new buyer as well, not many interested in this platform.
sounds like you got a lemon lol
+1 on PPF right away. I looked into it when i first got mine, but ended up passing on it. I just paid a decent chunk to repaint my hood, waiting for it to cure, then taking it to get PPF.
To new buyers: PPF before anything else!
Yeah it's painful, I tell everyone who just bought a new Supra to get it PPF'd right away!
Yooo. . We have the same Supra and both of us aren't getting rid of it for anything other than our dream car. . A GT3 RS. Nice man!
Great minds think alike! Hopefully we both achieve our goal of getting a GT3RS 😄
My bro had a gt3rs and he sold it. Said it was slow i shit you not.
@@jerm_ Yeah I've driven one and it's not the fastest in a straight line, but the visceral feel and experiencing it on a circuit was breathtaking. Have a video on it, didn't do too well in terms of views, but I'm so blessed to be able to experience it.
"Every time I park this car, I can't stop looking at it." Same bro.
Still look back at it to this day
Awesome video and I agree with you on so many points about this car, I'm coming from an FA20 based WRX that I went Full bolt ons and running a full E85 flexfuel tune, you know the usual dyno at 375whp 350wtq. I have done all my mods and maintenance in my garage, and watching maintenance and modifications on the Supra really amazes me at how much easier and better results you get from working on that B58. I can not even remember the last time my WRX ran properly, I would always have oil consumption issues on and off again, running super rich almost all the time, constant check engine lights, constant fixing my car at home, constant worrying about police and California state ref tickets, constant just worrying about my car breaking down. It was great fun but I was shocked to race a stock 3.0 supra, really put a reality check on me. Few months ago, I had a valve spring suddenly explode and send shrapnel all throughout my motor, chipped my pistons couldn't hold compression and just broke down on the freeway. I love Subaru, but I am just so over it, dealing with so many problems to have a fast car. I wish I had considered a supra or a b58 based platform 4 years ago when I got my WRX brand new. Anyways, rebuilding the motor, looking to sell, and for sure looking for a used 3.0. I test drove a 3.0 and it blew me away, the cabin size is so small, the way the car feels when you accelerate and watching the nose of the car lift up, and the ZF8 transmission shifts so fast that I don't even think I will miss driving manual. I love it, its such a huge change from the WRX, I can not wait to get into one.
Thanks for taking the time to watch! Sorry to hear about your WRX and all the issues you've been having. I do share the sentiment though because as much as I loved the Subarus I've owned, there was always something up with them, whether it was user error or not.
Eventually got tired of it and moved to the FK8 Type R which I had for about 9 months which I then sold for the Supra. I remember thinking to myself "where has this been all of my life" when I test drove this exact car. If you daily the car, I would recommend the ZF8 as it's awesome with daily duties. There's a good reason why they put this transmission in so many cars, it's that good.
Definitely try out a manual Supra if you get a chance, I wouldn't say it's as good as an STI transmission or the FK8, but it's better than the WRX and pairs really well with the B58. Can't go wrong with either route, but I hope you're able to jump into one soon!
@@VinceChristmastree It has been awesome, I test drove a manual one, I had a blast, but I could not justify a 10k difference for the only few ones in my area. Then I test drove a couple of automatic ones as well as a 2022 M340i. I really knew I wanted the automatic one and so finally got my hands on a 2021 premium as the second owner for the price I wanted. For now I do not want to be modding and going FBO and crazy E85 like I did with the WRX so I was okay with a locked ECU (maybe just a downpipe for sound) but I know the mod bug is gonna get me eventually. I absolutely love this freaking car. Such a rowdy car, I love the size of it even for being 6ft tall I fit perfect. I love the technology and I’m almost certain this is going to be a keeper car for the years to come. Watching a lot of your videos with your supra and your fellow supras in your area makes me feel like I made a truly satisfying purchase too. Thank you!!
Bro, you're literally living my dream bruh, I want a supra now want a gt3rs in the future so sick
You got it bro! Hopefully one of these days I can get one and I'll share with you all.
Interesting journey so far, thanks for sharing it with everyone! I'm on month 6 of waiting for a premium MT..I know people have waited over a year but almost feels like i'll never be allocated one lol.
I don't know where you live , but in New jersey, I saw one MT 45th anniversary in white , 3k over MSRP
Thanks for watching! I don't know how y'all can wait for so long. I'm the type of guy if I spend $$$ on something, I want it now lol
@VinceChristmastree yeah I totally get that. I have 3 deposits down across Ohio which I thought would secure me one sooner but I may have to be more aggressive.
Holy cow, that's pretty nuts. One of my buddies put down a deposit for 5 different places trying to get his C U Later Supra. Did the dealer at least give an estimate for time?
I’ve been waiting like 2 years for my local msrp dealer to call…Supra production is down too, which doesn’t help…
Cinematics were fire bro
Thanks so much bro! I keep working on it for y'all!
Revisiting this after 5 months. I currently drive a GR Corolla right now but I might actually switch to the GR Supra since prices are pretty good right now. Gyatttt
Haha nice, Devin, who I featured on my channel went from a Supra to a GRC. Still a great choice either way!
@@mattpapa03 if I get one do I have to do a down payment? I’m a female and I want to start getting into cars I’m planning on getting a Supra in a few months
@@chiveenbrown9742 You could put a down payment or not. Its up to you! I just got my Supra close to 3 months ago. Loving it so far
Saving to get one of these next summer. Your build is perfect man, beautiful car. Didn’t know the engine bay could look that good too wow dude. Great vid!
Thanks so much! Glad you like it. Excited for you to get one and enjoy as much as I’ve enjoyed mine. The engine bay can be cleaned up some for sure 🤣
Pretty wild I can tell you exactly where those silos are located. Absolutely awesome car! Subbed to support local content creator!
BA represent! Thanks for the sub!
I know what you mean about people wanting to race. When I was driving home in my 2024 45th Mikan Blast from the dealership, a guy in a very loud Charger pulled up next to me on the highway, and then blasted off. My car has a dealer-applied temporary plate in the back, so people should know I'm breaking it in.
Today, two guys in a Sonata N flew by then slowed down with their windows down so that I'd slowly pass them.
Now if I weren't breaking in the engine, I'd probably blast by and then coast back to cruising speed.
I can't imagine dealing with that with a loud color like the Mikan Blast. Congrats on the purchase! I have yet to see on in person.
Those break in miles will fly by quick! Every time I visit my hometown, I always get some random people revving and doing flybys. It gets old lol
@VinceChristmastree Thanks, Vince. I haven't seen another MB 45th yet, either. One thing is certain; I am having a "blast" driving it!
Dave
Super creamy camera work bruh, the supra is out of this world as well
Thanks so much! Still working on improving for the viewers such as yourself!
Thanks for the stone chip stuff mine also 15-20 on my bumper and hood altogether. I just touch mine up. My GT86 also used to get loads on its super soft paint. Seems they only ever go to primer and not metal. Crazy only minor issues with the Mods you have done. Agree such fun to drive and yes people stare, shout Supra stuff and all sorts.
Yeah mine is too far gone to touch up sadly. It's held up amazingly. Modern technology has come a long way and the gen 2 B58 is known to be pretty reliable. Still get a decent amount of attention lol
Mans got good taste. My dream car is also a GT3 RS, and I am probably going to get a Supra in the meantime. It would be funny if you also started out with a Porsche 986/MR-2 like me.
Haha, nah I wish. My first car was a 2011 Kia Sorento and first sports car was a 2016 WRX. Would be insane if we started off the same way.
Close though. My very first car was a Toyota Camry and wanted a subaru with a flat 4 as my sports car. Turned out I got a porsche 986 with a flat 6 instead because it was cheaper :P@@VinceChristmastree
Well, I did want a WRX for a bit, but I ended up getting the Boxster for the other flat engine :P@@VinceChristmastree
People's obsession with mileage on vehicles anymore dates back to older vehicles from the 70s and 80s, 90s where a car that had 100k miles was pretty much considered toast.
Meanwhile, today's Vehicles, 50,000 - 100,000 miles, the car is coming alive.
Drive it!
I didn't know that! Thanks for the information! Completely agree with driving it, I always encourage fellow Supra or just sports cars owners to drive their cars and they'll last as long as you take care of it.
Funny he says that😅 its the opposite for me no one wants to race me :/ in my supra but when i had my GTI was a different story 😅😅 keep it up bro love your vids
Thanks bro! I try to keep my car low-key so I can bait some people, but still no one wants to fuck around and find out :(
I bought mine brand new, and with 1500 miles on the dash, I went to a lone industrial street to rip a few donuts, man this thing is crazy. Its fun seeing videos of modded ones and I can't believe I have one parked in my garage. Sadly I'd have to femto unlock the ecu but for now i think stock is plenty fun. I agree, everyone wants to race you, its annoying, but i just ignore them and keep driving normally. Cus i aint got shit to prove and too much to risk for some random.
Yeah stock wise it's definitely no slouch, modifying it amplifies it even more. I love sharing the car, but I agree with you, you just want to go about your day without being disturbed lol
What’s your wheel specs? Car looks fire 🔥
Thanks! F: 18x10 +25 on 275/35/18 and R: 18x11 +34 on 305/35/18
Can't wait to get one hopefully later this year early next year, gonna be my first two door car and every video I see sells me even more on it 😂 thx for the video
Best of luck!
This guy has the biggest balls as an automatic driver for even admitting manual would be fun but still enjoying his car very much, I can’t even imagine owning a manual Supra😭 I need one👌
I've been pretty lucky to drive 4-5 manual Supras and it's more enjoyable to drive in terms of driver engagement. I prefer the auto for driving it a lot, but if it was to serve as a weekend car, then manual would be the way to go. If you get a chance to drive one, I highly recommend it.
Good shit man. Shes a beauty. Thinking of buying one after paying off my tacoma lol
Thanks man! Would be a great car to pair with the Taco.
I want one of these so badly. Once I graduate from univ I’m gonna work towards one of these, I wanna daily drive one too! Also subscribed :)
Thanks Ken! You got it man. Never thought I would be in this position, but very blessed to. It's very rewarding to daily drive and no drive is ever monotonous with the Supra :)
It'll be interesting to see how the engine holds up... I used to have a 135i with an n54... after 110k miles it became a HUGE moneysuck....
Yeah we shall see. I'll probably hit the 100k mark in 2 years so definitely going to do a deep dive when it's time to make that video.
that opening sequence was majestic
Thanks man!
Did you shoot this in downtown BA?? I live like 10 minutes here and I’m so close to getting my hands on a Supra. Your channel, advice, and experience is definitely going to be a huge help for me!! (My dream car is also a gt3 RS 😂)
Yes I did! Was in town for the holidays and ended up just shooting there since it looks nice. Glad to help and great minds think alike!
I’m 2 and a half years in to mine but mine is a 2021 2.0 with the b48 engine I got mine new with 52 miles on the obd I still get compliments even if I do talk down on it a little bcz it’s a 4cly but in the end I love it I daily it and try to take care of it
At the end of the day, who cares, as long as you enjoy it! The B48 Supra is still fun and makes for a good twist and turn car with less weight in the front.
Im I’m deciding between an M2 and a supra. I’m going to finance whichever cars I’m gonna choose. But man you’re making it really hard for the M2.
Can't go wrong with either! I have not had the chance to drive an F87 M2 yet surprisingly, but I have driven the G87 and it's a great car. Much bigger than the Supra, but it does not drive like it. If you do want back seats that can actually be used by normal sized humans, then go for the M2. If you just need two seats and want to experience the B58, then Supra. Hope that helps!
Thanks good to know that Supra mk5 is super low maintenance
Yeah it's reassuring!
Super nice looking car Vince
Thanks Blake!!
Very nice car man! I’m on the fence of trading in my 22’ Lexus IS 350 F Sport for a Supra. I’ve modded it to perfection, but I’m honestly missing the performance aspect. It’s decently fast but it gets zero attention which is crazy considering how good it looks. Perhaps it just had to do with where I live. What’s the maintenance been like for this car? Do you take it to the dealer to get worked on? Wondering if that’ll be an issue for me to have regular maintenance done to the car. If I were to get one, I’d daily it. Would your recommendation be to get the 2020 year? I’ve heard about some of them burning oil and that slightly worries me. Thanks man!
Sorry for the late reply! Thank you! I do love how the new IS' look, very sleek and does not get the attention it deserves. I think it does look better than competitors including the BMW 3-series.
Maintenance has just been your usual oil changes and other fluid changes. Of course change pads and other stuff as needed. Nothing really out of the ordinary from a regular commuter car surprisingly. This car will never see the dealer (except one time due to electrical stuff). I usually do my own work or take it to a local shop near me (@iautowork in DFW). If you plan on just keeping it stock performance-wise, then you should be fine.
2020s if you do not want to go pay to have your ECU shipped out to be able to modify it. There are some unicorn 2021s that can be tuned, but they are very very rare. The oil burning issue as far as I'm aware was limited to some 2021s.
@@VinceChristmastree thanks for taking the time to write this detailed response man!
Of course man! Glad to help out!
"The first issue was a misfire." As a guy who's been driving an N54 for 7 years i chuckled.
LOL I now know the feeling. It was my initiation into the land of straight six BMW performance engines.
W car build. This is my dream build.
Thanks so much!
Currently have a 540 bmw b58 g30, definitely want an MK5 next !
If you think it’s quick in that chassis, just imagine the Supra! Would be a good choice or a good parter to the 540 if you keep it 😄
Salute salute salute fr for daily driving it
Appreciate it!
I would love to daily a car like this but being in New England little bit tough with these winters
Oh yeah, much more different than what we get in Texas lol
Do what I do, have two or three new vehicles and part the Supra in the garage for winter...
The warranty on my c7 stingray is going to be up in a couple yrs. This is probably somewhere around the top of what i want to replace it with when that day comes.
Definitely a good choice! The interior I would say is an upgrade.
How is maintenance on that Corvette, would you categorize the car as reliable, is the repair cost not BMW level expensive?
@@Yggdrasill8 Trans went at 50k. I wouldn't own one without warranty. Cost of maintenance I'd say is comparable to that of a camero or mustang with the exception of the brakes. Z51 brakes you have to change the rotors with the pads which isn't cheap.
Love your plate frame :) Nicely detailed video.
Glad someone noticed LOL! Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment!
Thanks for the vid! Sweet ride.
Thanks for watching!!
It the next few years I would like to pick up the 6 speed manual version of this car.
Do it! It's a fun and fantastic car. The engine with a manual is a future classic.
Damn you guys put miles, I’ve got barely 30k miles on my 2017 86
Life’s too short to not enjoy it as much as humanly possible!
Great video! Thanks for sharing the good and the not so good. :-)
Thanks for watching!
I wouldn’t even know where to begin when it becomes to modding
Yo! My suggestion is, find out what your final goal for the car is? Is it going to be a high hp street car? A responsive, peppy car?
@@VinceChristmastree street car would be my choice
@@87slik There's two routes from there to choose from, something responsive (500-700whp) or a big power street car (700+).
@@VinceChristmastree through your professional opinion what would you recommend for the responsive option? (500-700)
Sorry, just saw this. Not a professional by any means, but from my standpoint as an enthusiast, an aftermarket stock location turbo will be your best bet. Adding port injection and flex fuel will definitely get you there. For 500whp, all you will really need is a downpipe and E50 tune since the stock turbo will get you there. Anything past 550whp, you will need to look into a bigger stock location turbo. To hit 700, you'll need fueling (PI and E70).
Dang!!! Took me 5yrs to hit 65k in my subie and I got it brand new 😅
Lol I'm almost at 85K miles now. Probably will be closer to 90K miles once I hit the 4 year ownership mark with this car!
The biggest con of this Supra is it doesn't have a targa option. 1987-1988 Supra Turbo targa was the epitome of a sports car back then.
Yeah targa would be such an awesome addition to the car.
I'm actually thinking of pulling the trigger and getting one, I own an EVO X. But, I want something new. I'd like to find a stick, you can have so much fun in an automatic. I'm curious if if i mod it do i need a tune right away?
The B58 is really fun paired with a manual. I highly recommend test driving one if you can. If you add a downpipe or intake, you can run the stock tune whether it's catless or catted. However, if you plan on adding anything else, it's definitely recommended. I'm not super familiar with the 4B11 platform, but I know some 4 cylinder platforms need to be tuned for every little change that is made.
Wow love the miles.
How much attention does the car get even after 3 yrs?
Thanks so much! Still a decent amount, I don't get stopped as much when I get gas, but when I'm out and about, I definitely still get compliments from all sorts of people. Even though I mentioned the negative attention I get in the video (people driving like assholes next to me), there's been more love for sure. It's always hilarious hearing people comment "I hated how this car looks when I first saw it, but modified it looks pretty sweet".
daily drive your shit people ... this guy here is a nice example of loving your car by letting it go out
Facts!
Have you put a ppf on your supra?
Nope, I have a video covering what it looks like after this many miles.
I am still debating what kind of spoiler I should get. The kind you have, the classic mk4 Supra spoiler, or a wide spoiler but I tbh don’t like them on this car.
Can't go wrong with a duckbill spoiler if you are wanting to stay lower key. Either way, you have tons of options!
Really fell in love with the Supra this past year. Want to get one so bad, but for now I think I'll just stick to modding the Q60 🥲
Q60 is pretty nice and practical! Hopefully the used prices go down and dealers stop smoking crack on the new ones so people can snag them for MSRP. It's been super rewarding driving the car!
Vince, been watching your videos for a while when I was making 65k a year. told myself I would buy it when I make 6 figures, now I am and am still worried, I dont know why. My career has a lot of room for growth in terms of salary and is stable IMO. I know you aren't a financial advisor, but my situation is hard to figure out.
Currently 22, and take home 6k/month after taxes, 401k, etc. fixed expenses would be roughly 1-1.5k a month leaving me with 4k/month as a even estimate.
I have enough to buy a used Supra if its around 50k, but am scared of ones with 10-20k miles as I don't know how maintained it was, if it was beaten on, had a good first 500-1k miles before hard pushing, etc.
I'd look for a 2020 because I want it unlocked so I can control the burbles and that's about it. I know this is not a lot of information to work with but what would you do?
any advice is appreciated.
Thanks for the support man! It's a big purchase regardless of how much you make so I understand. Getting a used car definitely has its pros and cons. Burbles is possible with all of the tuning options so go with one that fits your budget, whether it's EcuTek, BM3, MHD+, etc. On EcuTek and I believe BM3, your tuner can enable the controls for burbles.
I am going to do another buyer's guide for the Supra, but I would say get the CarFax, do an independent PPI on the car you're looking at and make sure that they note if the car was returned to stock and if you want to be extra cautious, see how many times the ECU has been flashed, do a compression/leakdown test to make sure the motor is healthy.
Hope this helps!
@@VinceChristmastree Thank you Vince, glad to see how far your videos have came and how every time I watch the cinematography gets even better. Can't wait to see when you're at the 100k mile mark.
@@VinceChristmastree But in terms of getting an independent PPI, ensuring the ECU hasn't been flashed a lot, and compression/leakdown tests, this would have to be done from a reputable shop, nothing that Toyota Dealership can really do right?
I appreciate it! Probably going to reach the 100k mile mark by probably February or March of next year. Yeah, definitely choose a reputable shop. Don't have the dealership themselves do it unless you know someone trustworthy personally that works there. Of course they would want the car sold so they'll be more inclined to say it's good. If you want to discuss more, hit me up on IG!
What color is your Supra? Is it a color from factory called absolute zero or is it a paint color from a paint shop? I just really like the color and I’m super curious!
This is a factory color, Tungsten Silver! Thanks!
The break wear sensor on my 335 went out twice from simply driving over a pothole and sewer cover. Very annoying 😂
LOL damn
Bro that front bumper looks even LOWER, RIP haha
LOL yeah, I liked the look so let's see how long this lasts.
10 months later i’m just curious on what u should get for myself. GR86 or a supra. i have good credit im 19 have 10k down
I'm not a financial advisor, but even if you can afford the car itself, you need to budget for contingencies and maintenance. The maintenance on this car is going to be quite more than a GR86. A set of tires on this car can run you almost $2k for reference. Check out this video where I cover the costs in detail:
th-cam.com/video/hUr1dasBdhc/w-d-xo.html
PPF seems like such a waste for me, $5k to do the car when I can respray the car professionally for $3k. Even just the front bumper for my strat blue mk5 was quoted $1100 for PPF when a respray is $400 (I'll have to do the labor and take off the sensors). Just a hard justification in my opinion.
Agree to disagree. Definitely understand where you're coming from though. Personally, going down this path, I would rather have the original paint and not have downtime to respray the bumper. I'm pretty anal when it comes to the paint so I don't even want to run into the issue of the bumper being a different shade than the car.
Right now here's what I have to deal with, either I have to find a replacement bumper ($600-700) or take my front bumper off. I really won't be able to drive the car without the car freaking out so it'll be down for a week or so to get resprayed, which is a no-go considering it's my daily driver. Repainting the bumper requires the paint to cure which is dependent on the temps outside, so 30-90 days. At that point, just with the time and potential downtime, the cost of PPF is justified.
I still don’t think that warrants the difference. It resembles highway robbery to be blunt. But to each their own
To each their own, agreed! Thanks for the input though, much appreciated.
I think ppf is valid, if you only want to protect your front. Genuinely it’s a car on the road and driven a lot.. protecting the whole thing is a waste.. but having your front bumper and carbon fiber secured that’s smart because over time carbon fades from the uv rays so protecting a carbon hood/lip/front bumper is pretty much all you needs don’t go too all our only protect the parts that are revealed the most from the front.
@@VinceChristmastree why don't you guys just buy a beater for 10k a honda or toyota?

Has anyone ran into “Engine Mount” challenge? I’m at 58K+ miles and was advised that it’s starting to wear off…. looked it up and it seems it’s a pretty common challenge but I’m not how common it really is.
Did the dealer check your mounts? I haven't heard about it, but I haven't actually checked my mounts. I probably should.

hey man cool vid really helped me out but what do u have to say for a teenager whos willing to buy it right after college?
Thanks for watching! I am not a financial advisor by any means as I am just some guy on the internet. I would say is find your footing first financially with your career job so you are not financially strained when moving up to a role that fits more what you're wanting to do with your life. You don't want to be stuck with this type of car and its expenses if you're just working a random job.
Even if you find a Supra in the price range you want, that has a reasonable interest rate (if financing), the consumables for this car is pricey. I don't remember if I mentioned it in this video, but a full set of tires for this car can be upwards of almost $1400-1500. The rears only which I change out every year is about $800-900. I would say wait, save up, build a foundation for what you're going to do in your life, then pull the trigger.
@@VinceChristmastree 🫡🫡 woahh thanks for the advice. I have planned everything I can get the car right off the showroom but the problem is maintenance and you have explained it thanks again
Of course man!
Did you pay all cash for yours? It’s my dream car and it’s being discontinued and I’m trying to get a house and don’t know if I’ll make the cut off times 😢
Financed mine before the interest rates were crazy.
Do you have a video on pros and cons for top mount and stock placement turbo?
Not directly, but I would recommend these two.
This first one I go over some details on why I wish I just went to a top mount from the very beginning: th-cam.com/video/TrHwGoFTqhk/w-d-xo.html
This second one is when I go into detail with just going to the top mount once I had it installed and tuned: th-cam.com/video/xTaK_fkMZ9A/w-d-xo.html
@@VinceChristmastree thank you.
Made a video based on your suggestion. Should provide more information than the two I previously linked: th-cam.com/video/h5dQQFAddBM/w-d-xo.html
Is this car more exiting than a Toyota Prius?
Absolutely not
i wonder why they traded it in after 6k miles did the dealership share this info with you?
I bought it from the previous owner directly. He was wanting to buy his wife an SUV. Perfect opportunity for me 🤓
What is the song for the edit called. It’s straight fire 🔥
I'll have to find the song, I can't remember
Bro, I spent $2k on tires 😭. Gotta pay to play...
Yup when it comes to tires...my wallet cries LOL
How are the speakers in it? I have a 17 mustang ecoboost and im looking at a 3.0 or a 24 GT
It's alright, I'm not an audiophile by any means and I have not had the chance to experience real high quality systems in BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, etc. It's nice and gets the job done if anything!
Any tire recommendations for 600 whp that can handle AND hook
I recommend the Nitto NT555R2s, they've been great for my daily duties and for hooking when they're warmed up. Not ideal for when it's cold though. Handles decent in the rain. I haven't taken them to the circuit or around to autocross so I'm not the one to ask for that! Hope that helps.
@@VinceChristmastree thanks for the tip. What does it take to warm your tires sufficiently on the street?
Have you done any cornering with them on the street or twisty roads?
@@whitemtl370 Honestly, just driving for a bit will warm them up.
Not a lot of cornering experience sadly. Choices are extremely limited here in OK/TX. No backroads that we can utilize that are plentiful like in the East or PNW. I've read that Advan AD09s or R888s handle well in corners. The R888s are LOUD though and need adequate warming up to really get grip.
What i like to know is what did you do to lose all those weight?
Are you referring to me personally or the car? Lmao

Does it drive like a BMW M2?
Great question! I am not sure since I have never driven an M2. If you guys will watch it, I'll be more than glad to make a comparison! Or perhaps expand it to compare the Supra to other 2 door GT/sports cars.
With the 305s in the rear, can you still lower the car?
It is lowered on Eibach Pro lowering springs.
is this car 2021? do you need to send the ecu for them to unlock?
It’s a 2020 so no
Do you recommend the GR Oil from Toyota?
0W-20 on a performance car is not recommended. I'm not a scientist or expert, but there's others out there that have done studies on it!
What's your car's ground clearance height?
From the side, it's like 3" and from the front, after installing the front splitter, it's also 3". I am lowered on Eibach lowering springs though lower the car by 1.7" in the front and 1.2" in the rear.
Brooooo drop the instrumental that was tough!!!
