2021 Toyota Supra vs 1994 Toyota Supra // JDM Legends Face Off

This is the new 2021 Toyota Supra, and it costs $67,690 CAD. Strangely, so does the old MKIV from 1994. Both share a name, but do both deserve the same reputation? Considering that there are 27 years between these two, can the old one stack up, and can the new one continue the legacy? James and Thomas jump behind the wheel of both to experience them and discuss them inside and out. Watch and enjoy!
Huge thank you to Ceramic Pro Vaughan, who allowed us to look way more 'street' than we deserve by facilitating us on their location. / ceramicpro_vaughan
And a massive thank you to Joe for letting us feature his MKIV!
And thank you to Vik and Miguel for coming out and being mad lads.

[@mrsoisauce9017]

Honestly tho, I feel like it could have been just a little bit more Toyota. I get the money argument. I’m not arguing against it. But still, they could have at least developed their own engine. Or they could have made the interior cheaper and given the damn thing a manual so they could lower the starting price. They could have done a lot of things they didn’t do. Besides, the cost of development argument isn’t as good when we scale it against what was arguably the car of 2020. The Corvette C8 went mid engine, and it turned up a profit. The damn thing had 2 get a new platform, completely reworked engineering, and different materials, and after all of that, it STILL managed 2 maintain its absolute bargain of a price. Toyota is a much bigger company than GM is. What’s 2 say they couldn’t make a Supra completely in-house and still make a profit at a fair price point? Because rite now, Nissan has absolutely embarrassed Toyota with the Z. And I no, it’s unfair 2 compare the 2, given that the Z had a platform that was perfectly useable. But the point of the car was 2 hit Toyota where it hurt, and that they did. The Supra was inspired by Supras of old, but the Z was more inspired by old Zs than the Supra was inspired by old Supras. And it’s a shame 2, since Toyota knows how 2 make a good driver’s car. Just look at the GR Yaris. It took a boring and run of the mill car and turned it into a little pocket rocket that feels more like an Integra than the new Integra will probably feel like, because that’s what it is. It’s Toyota’s Integra, and it’s incredible 4 it. I feel like the Supra, while well intentioned, missed the mark because it didn’t FEEL like a Supra. It’s still a good car, don’t get me wrong. But it doesn’t feel like a Supra. Perhaps a next generation, modernized 2JZ would have fixed things up a little. Perhaps it needed a little bit more. Who knows

I am not in Mark. IV's, the status just kills it for me. I'd go for the Mark. V. I'll leave the 90's Supra for somebody who really wants it.

Love my 2022 A91-CF it is a blast to drive and the attention it gathers is almost annoying after while with all the stares, questions and photos people take of it. Id certainly like to have a MK4 someday as well, would be a dream to own both.

[@Rac3r4Life]

I really miss my IS300. I did a 2JZ-GTE conversion. I had the manual version, so naturally I popped in a 6-speed from the supra. I stiffened the chassis, and upgraded to a fully adjustable (castor, camber, toe, stiffness, and ride height) coil over strut suspension front and rear. It was amazing around a racetrack. Edit: with the tune I was making 700hp to the wheels.

"276hp" yes, according to the Gentlemen's agreement. ;-)

[@nobody8116]

@Stephen j He's still not wrong... the cars were highly underrated in JDM as with other market specs.

[@nobody8116]

@Stephen j I wouldn't call underrated 276hp in 1993 as "shit", even when compared to 320hp in USDM-spec. And having owned both, IMO there's not a noticeable difference on the street. Good try, but... 👎😂

[@01CAMRY]

Awesome intro guys!

[@M3RRIH3W13]

There are so many stories about how people feel about the IV. The "Fast and the Furious" is the other spectrum of the car. It's the legendary 2JZ with great tuning possibilities. What Toyota didn't make was a rocket car, they made an iconic Gran Tourer. It was a midsize, comfortable, and fast car to enjoy driving across the country. I think the Lexus LC500 comes to my mind when I think about the older Supra (without the larger price tag). The Supra I, II, III, and IV were all different cars. Maybe, Toyota will morph the next Supra into a GT from the LC500.

[@jaredchampagne2752]

M3RRIH3W13 Nah I don’t think so, Toyota is so greedy and corporate nowadays, they’re way too cheap to actually make enthusiast based cars, they only care about making cars that sell to the masses, the BMW Supra is a supreme example of their disconnect with their true fans and literally made a car that no one asked for with a Supra badge on it, they pay someone else to build their performance cars because they don’t want to invest the money into a performance car that wont sell a million units, they only care about the bread and butter, corolla, Camry and crossovers.

[@M3RRIH3W13]

@@jaredchampagne2752 I believe that you are correct. The Supra sat on the shelf for a long time. Crossovers and econoboxes get all the money.

[@supraturboz]

The mkiv was not a gt, it’s more a sports cars than a gt, the gt was the sc/soarer, the mkiii was a traditional gt

[@justinmadden7739]

The production value of your videos is amazing, I’m blown away. A80 Supra is an amazing car and I miss that straight six sound and just seeing them on the road. From a time when Toyota and Nissan and Honda and Mitsubishi threw caution to the wind and built these amazing cars. I miss those days.

As an Australian, am I the only one disappointed that James didn’t make reference to the A80 Supra having the steering wheel on the correct side?

No because everyone knows ....including him now ....being on the left side of the car is proper😊

OdysseyMe29 nope It came from japan and that side is correct

[@jackylomega]

British conquered countries drive on the wrong side. Free countries drive on the right side. Hence the name right side of the road

[@grisa12345]

I was 16, working as a porter at a Toyota dealership in 1994 when the MKIV was in its heyday. I absolutely loved the car and lusted after it. I have waited patiently… and now will have a manual transmission MKV in my garage in a month. It may not be a “Toyota” but Toyota would not put their badge on it if it didn’t meet their QDR standards. Love the styling, love the speed, and the rare factor is icing on the cake.
