After daily driving my 2021 A90 MK5 Toyota Supra for several weeks, I realized there are some things I hate about the car. While some of these things may come off as small and forgettable, they all add up the more you drive the car.

Dude, that's way too many complaints. It's a sport car. Buy a Chevy Tahoe or something like that if you are looking for space or comfort...

6’2 here 170 lbs only complaint is the limited adjustability of the seat when I go to sleep in my car on my work shifts. I’ve learned to look at the lights on the side of the traffic pole when I’m at the front. Coming from a Camry which had majority of the features that VV mentioned, I have no regrets in trading it in. I daily drive the Supra and I’ve learned to live with it.

Get Bimmercode or at least look into it. It's super cheap and super easy to do. You spend over 50, 000 on car but won't take 30 minute to fix things you don't like is just wack. You can fix, auto start stop, sync climate, car chimes, seat belt reminder, start in sport mode, make the display WAY brighter, turn off the warning on the head unit, and many more things. May favorite change I made is the chime when I open the door is set to a Rolls Royce door chime. Also another big change is you can change the angle of the mirror when reversing.

I'm a Toyota guy, i've owned nothing but Toyota, even trucks. But I still want one. Yes it's BMW parts, but Toyota has inspected, reviewed and adjusted every single part as necessary to bring it up to Toyota standards, before putting it into their car. Toyota wouldn't just take BMWs parts and blindly put them in considering they still have a reputation to keep. The sales of an unreliable Supra would be more damaging to Toyota's reputation and would not be worth any profits they would make on it.

Only real complaints I hear. 1. Buffeting window 2. Visibility/Space (debatable, most buyers are not as tall) Everything else is just random things that you found to just complain about. People who buy this arent looking for a practical car and you're constantly looking for considering your history with BMWs which are just actual practical cars with more power.

I dont own a Supra (I really want one though) but I have recently test drove one for the first time and I definitely agree with a lot of these for sure. Getting out of the vehicle is definitely a task LOL. And I'm a small dude (5'8 180lbs). The visibility is a bit poor..I used to own an 18' Mustang GT and for that to be such a big car, it still had PLENTY of visibility. The supra does not. Also, I definitely hate the lack of storage. As bad as I want one, I have considered possibly purchasing something else. Time will tell.

Enjoyed the video. Concise. Also liked that you didn’t drag on and on about the obvious wind buffeting and fake vents. Nice to see other complains that what everyone else has said years ago.

Another thing for trunk by my friend's supra is, if you push the button then slap the door, the trunk will be locked by your slap lol. Also, the wireless will make the phone really hot.
However, he says BMW makes it part of the reasons he bought supra. BMW is good at getting performance, .Otherwise, we can imagine Toyota will make the supra "relatively old" for that era like LFA.

Definitely appreciate this video. It was really helpful to make a decision to buy a Supra. Especially the non syncing climate control and the lack of visibility. You were 100% about not being able to see the traffic lights. Still got it though. Keep up the good work on the channel!

if you get bimmer code you can code out the fake car sounds and then adjust the settings of the speakers and it will sound much better thats what i did. You can also save the auto start off on bimmer code. I also did the reverse mirror because its almost useless stock

I think this is a great review regarding what you dislike. I actually just got on the list for a Supra but I personally would never consider a car like this as a daily driver. My intentions for this car is strictly fun/weekend driving. It's cramped, as I am 6'1" and between 215-240lbs depending on my training regiment. But I think it will be livable as a toy, not a DD. Love your videos man! 👍

Exposed screen could possibly take a glare resistant screen protector 🤔 Your thoughts Cristian?

All legitimate gripes honestly. I have an A91 manual on order that will be here next month and none of those things are dealbreakers. Most cars have annoying features, especially German cars.

I’m just under 6 foot. I get in the car backwards and roll in. Especially getting out I swing my feet around and stand up facing the trunk. Saved my neck. The seat needs to adjusted so the bolstering gives your spine proper alignment otherwise it will not be comfortable. The auto start stop doesn’t bother me but if when you are coming to a stop you throw it manual mode it won’t stop then you can shift up or throw it back it auto when you take off. Or put it in sport mode as that cancels it out too

11:30 Your 15 reasons why? Bro no it ain't worth it! Hahaha.
All valid complaints. Personally, I don't think I'd ever get this gen of Supra.

‘Not a real Toyota’ and ‘just another BMW’ are not faults with the car, dude. Beemers are incredibly well designed, well built and reliable cars. But they’re driven by nobheads.

Now, I’m not saying that everyone who drives a BMW is a nobhead.

BUT

Every nobhead drives a BMW.

With this car, you get all the advantages of a BMW product. But without being ‘that guy’ on the road that everyone else hates.
