The Toyota Supra Automatic is a pure joy. The main reason people talk trash is because they are continuing a rumor they have no real substantial evidence to support it. Kids just opening their mouth up just to open their mouth while they themselves own a Kia. I own both a manual and automatic and the automatic is amazing.

Great video, very informative and well documented. One point I would like to refute is the 2jz vs 2jz vvti argument. Both 2jz engines share the same internals, the VVTi has been proven to reach the same power levels as a non vvti engine. If anything the VVTi is superior as it offers better low down torque and can be setup to spool a turbo faster if drag racing.

A very interesting choice of shirt, Cletus, if I may make so bold. The " Fairies at the bottom of my garden " pattern is a very daring choice, but you definitely manage to pull it off. It also nicely sets-off your aesthetic principles. The Supra, from memory, was always a nice enough car, if a tad thirsty, and very reliable. Your well considered review is, of course, a " How to do it " example to other reviewers, and I sincerely wish they'd watch and learn from you.

I must say, as the owner of a MKIII Auto, the only thing I would change on the car is the auto box. Its not terrible as they go, but a 4 speed auto mated to a 3 litre turbo charged engine does not make for any discernable fuel economy. Granted, it could be argued that its not the sort of car you should buy if you have any sort of fuel economy concerns, but i cant help but think if it didn't have a 30 year old auto box in the mix i'd be considerably better off financially 😂

I had a Uk TT auto same colour but with no kit on and it looked lovely. Still the fastest car I’ve owned but a pretty forgettable one. It was super smooth super fast comfy I guess but not as involving as the GTR33 I had or other quick cars. Now I’m older I’d probably appreciate it more . I sold it in 2007 to a guy in Denmark who still owns it

This was my dream car I bought one na auto it was fun on an empty road, but hate full in town and car parks, interior was my favourite part. Never meet your hero!

The 0 to 60 is 5.1s on the 326 bhp version (uk). When I drive my supra I flick down from D to 2ND when I need to overtake using the stick. As regards to the dash I remember my mother in law, (who was sitting in back) saying I looked like a pilot. Yeah the dash is great.

I test drove 2 manual supras and 1 auto and both the 6 speed supras felt the same. The clutch would grab way at the bottom while the release was way at the top, that was very annoying and i didnt like it. The auto was faster and it has MANU mode which is basically sport shift for todays verbage, YOU shift between 1st, 2nd and 3rd at your will :-)

The main case is similar to the common A340E but not interchangeable, the bell housing has "J3" cast into the upper surface, and is larger diameter to accept the larger torque converter and special flex plate. Maximum power using the stock internals should be limited to 500 (significantly higher than the standard A340E used with the 2JZ-GE normally aspirated engine
