2024 Toyota Supra 6-Speed - Daily Driving The 45th Anniversary Edition MK5

[@beanmachine3112]

"driving a car like this must be what it feels like to be an attractive woman" - such a hilarious and accurate statement. I love my '24 6mt supra. These cars are great for what they are and I think you're right the initial controversy will be forgotten as these cars age gracefully.

You should definitely use signals in roundabouts! Not sure why people think not signaling is ever a good idea.

[@TopherDrives]

I always do now! People still pull in front of me but at least they had fair warning of my horn 😭

[@JohnnyGification]

It's a BMW. What do you expect?

[@grichl88]

@@JohnnyGification well, Topher was using turn signals so maybe it's a badge thing?

[@ARentz07]

I've always heard that signaling in roundabouts is unnecessary because drivers outside the roundabouts won't know what my signal means unless they saw me enter the roundabout. Consider a roundabout with four evenly-spaced exits with a tree or shrubbery in the center. Low cars like this Supra may be difficult for a driver approaching the roundabout entry opposite to the low car to see. Also, in my area, I have seen drivers put on a right turn indicator only to not take the exit on their right, but rather continue driving straight. They just initially went to the right before going straight because that is how roundabouts work, resulting in their idea to signal right when it was not appropriate. I think the best thing you can do is just signal right as you approach your exit to the roundabout to provide a courtesy to other drivers, since it is the least-confusing thing to do. However, law does not require it.

I recently acquired a GR Corolla circuit addition a few days ago and prior to that I’ve only ever driven about 50 miles in a manual transmission car from friends and family. Watching someone like you helps a lot with how to drive stick smoothly! I’ve upgraded from hazard on the road that stalls out a lot to a grandma driver who gets out of 1st gear eventually 😂. (If anyone has any tips on how to drive manual well I’m all ears! I feel like I’m 16 again relearning how to drive 😅)

[@ajaloy4010]

Just keep driving it will come to you. This is the only advice you will need

[@Tucgrc]

Picked up my first manual car ever at the beginning of the year, it also was a GR Corolla. Honestly just take your time with everything, I feel like I’m still learning even after 8500 miles. I personally like to keep IMT on all the time, it just makes my experience smoother and easier. I’ve learned to not rush and just take your time, if someone behind you gets mad… it’s whatever, but yeah man you got it man. Just keep practicing and driving. Good luck!

[@gluebottle607]

learn your biting point and when you are getting off the clutch in 1st or 2nd gear go slow and smooth to not bog!

[@frederickschulze8014]

When you're new, to start off, you just rev to 2k, then let clutch out slowly while maintaining constant gas to start off. This will teach you to start off purely with clutch control. When you get more advanced, you will be able to give it more gas at the biting point as you let the clutch out and this will allow you to start off faster.

[@MikeSuma831]

I like to use the rev hang as like a timer to be able to get into the next gear and clutch out to make my shifts super smooth. Not sure how long it is in the GR Corolla.

[@CreateR900]

I remember when this car was just a concept on Gran Turismo 6. Known only as “FT-1.” So crazy to see what was concept cars now real life vehicles on the roads.

[@Aiantaschr]

It's great that you are signaling on a roundabout but I think that also when exiting, you should signal. For example if you want to take the 3rd exit indicate left and before taking the exit, indicate right. If you need to take the first exit, indicate right immediately, if you are taking the exit on your right!

[@EctoPlasmic]

[@COOLUKGAMER]

Love the interior and as you mentioned, I love how it isn't screen galore. It still has buttons for the infotainment, the iDrive wheel is present, and there are PHYSICAL climate controls!!

[@italianbasegard]

0:25 My bro moved from the US to Japan and decided not to bring his Supra Launch Ed with him because he checked with the Toyota shops in the area around where he was moving to in Japan and none of them were willing to service the new Supras because they were BMWs under the hood. Not sure if it was their distaste of that or their lack of parts or tools to do the work, but it made my bro sell his new beloved Supra before moving. So it’s more than just perception, it’s definitely an issue to some degree.

[@EdwardBoicourtIV]

100% agree. If you really want the supra your better off getting the Z4 so you can take it to bmw for service. If you want the closest thing to a real supra get the RCF.

[@chrisginoc]

@@EdwardBoicourtIVNot that complicated. There are plenty of BMW mechanics and shops who know how to work on the Z4 as much as they know how to work on the MKV.

Here in Germany we signal when we leave a roundabout.

[@Part-TimePro]

Don't think that's what they mean when they say signal in roundabout. I always will signal turning right right as I'm able to leave the roundabout so the traffic from that direction knows to go. I believe it's that way in Europe as well.

[@TopherDrives]

Yes for larger roundabouts that’s the case. The ones around here are tiny and only 1 lane wide.

[@thierryvt]

There are some countries in Europe where signaling is required for both scenarios. So signal left as long as you're not exiting, signal right when you want to take the next exit (or vice versa for LH drive countries).

[@TopherDrives]

I love that. I wish we had that much organization over here :( It’s always one huge free for all it seems.

The most under appreciated and misunderstood car. People complain about everything. They complained about the MKIV in the 90’s for being too pricey, they under appreciated the LFA then it became a classic suddenly after production 😂 It’s human nature to complain

[@hhaste]

A huge reason I'm highly considering one. I have a feeling they will appreciate in value long term, the same way the MK4 is doing currently.

[@chrisginoc]

@ I was a kid when the MKIV was out and in high school I remember people hating that it cost “too much” or was “too expensive”. I have a 2023 A91 6MT and it’s honestly the most fun car I have ever owned. Very engaging and fun to drive. I’m itching to tune it or add more power, but being stock is plenty fun shifting gears around town or in the canyons. I wish the MKV didn’t have the hate or wasn’t misunderstood online or on the forums which is why I try and stay off here as much as I can. If you can look past the BMW partnership, you will enjoy the car manual or automatic what ever you get.

[@Itz_JayM]

The motor and transmission were never the issue for me about this car. The problem for me is the BMW interior. Im not a fan of BMWs interior at all and I hate that Toyota didnt do anything to differentiate their interior from a BMW. The seats, dash, infotainment, its all BMW. And quite frankly that is enough of a deal breaker for me. They had so much potential to make a modernized interior replicating that of the old supra which would have really brought out some nostalgia and honestly would have made it more suitable for keeping the supra name.

[@GeorgeStar]

This is how a sports car should be. It's not a real "sports" car if it's not a manual. Otherwise you might as well get a Prius.

Usually because you have to yield to anyone in the circle, so it doesn't really matter where they are going. Also, there's usually several exits in as circle, so you wouldn't know which one they are taking, anyway. If someone is in the circle, we wait, until they take the exit, then proceed in.
