Thanks for watching!

Ok you pricks. You asked for it, you got it. RWD sports car with a great engine, good sound, lightweight, near 400HP, and a manual.
Now go buy it

[justnathan]

That sound is beautiful. I just hope they keep making these kind of cars and we don't lose them for electric ones.

[tyler]

Finally! Now we only need people to actually buy it.

[criancrna]

Based on the yearly continuous improvements on the Supra, I’m willing to bet that they’ll announce a Supra Targa next year.

[zalden]

I talked to a local dealer and said that they haven’t been allocated any models but they already have 5 people on their “wait list” from around the country who are willing to pay a nominal “market adjustment” premium all ahead of me should they be allocated one.

….so yeah, super available

[GSTRification]

Thank you for pushing this car like it’s meant to be driven. Other reviewers didn’t quite capture it well but you did perfect with good shifting actions for us to know what the car is like.

[rynev]

There’s something about dropping down into 2nd gear in manual transmission car and flooring it, slamming through gears that never gets old

[AlexandreCardinal]

Was excited to finally get some info on how the clutch feels! Never had a car where reverse is far left without a reverse lockout. Is it risky to engage reverse instead of first?

[ChambersOfFear]

Great Video! Don’t know if this was already mentioned in another comment but the B58 in this car and other BMW products is a single turbo straight six. The “Twin Power” just means twin scroll turbo. The S58 in the full fledged M products is twin turbo.

[streliziak.]

This video will inspire a lot of people in life to work hard and while working on the hard times good times like these will pay off and that's just what's so happy about life even tho I'm 18 and In college my goal is to work hard and own one of these puppy.

[timothybracken]

You're the only car reviewer that knows how to properly drive and launch this Supra!

[jamesglosangeles]

The recording of the infotainment screen blinking red looks like it's screaming "DANGER TO MANIFOLD"

[rag]

this motivates to finally graduate this december in cyber security and get a good paying entry level job to buy this within a year or two!

[cjsnyder]

My first car was an automatic Scion FRS boosted to 400hp, my third is now a stock BRZ but I bought it in manual (first time ever driven manual), after a full day of stalling I learned to drive it and its well worth shifting over to a manual for anything and already feel like trading in this BRZ to buy a manual Supra. Any stock BRZ/ GT86 owner knows these are not that fast of cars, but having the manual taught me that I don’t need to go fast like my automatic FRS to have fun I just need a stick shift and a couple 5hp stickers. 😊

[Cal-El]

Was excited for this one, thanks Topher!

[jasmy-canada]

And thank god no freaking burble! Best reason to get the manual!

[TheJapfanboy]

Finally sounds good to hear the engine actually rev out

[trs]

Been waiting for this SO MUCH!!! SO EXCITED!!!

[Yusufcatveganslol]

My sibling recently found himself in this beast I’m extremely hyped for it go for big

[christopherhuff]

Now it’s everything, manual, RWD, turbo, in line 6!!
