A Solid Daily Driver - Toyota Supra Review

The 2020 Supra (MK5 A90) is an interesting car. It's not the most powerful for the price, or the fastest, or the most comfortable, or available with a manual transmission. However, it is a great package that no matter what way you look at it, can be justified in your life. Need a daily driver? It's comfortable, quiet if you want it to be, and fairly easy to park. Want a fun weekend car? As long as you keep the windows up, the Supra will blast a smile on to your face with the B58 engine and 8-speed ZF transmission that shifts as quickly as most dual clutch systems and I'd even compare it to the Porsche PDK.
Don't get me wrong please, it is a fun car to drive when you drive it hard, it handles well, it gets up to speed quickly, but it lacks a bit of drama and that may be due to it not coming with a stick and also not being able to drive with the windows down without feeling sick. Thanks for watching!

Would you take this over the 22 GR86? I definitely agree with your video on the 2.0, I didn't get that much feel or enjoyment driving it either (for the money) even though it's quick, as much as I wanted to love it for its balance (it was fun, but I couldn't justify the cost of the 2.0 vs a GR86 or the 3.0)

[@shouldigetit]

Hey Andrew, honestly if you enjoy driving with the windows down I would take the new GR86 or an ND-RF Miata. If you currently drive stick, you'll miss it so I recommend the 86 for that. I've been in the new BRZ and it feels way better than the previous gen, for the money it's a great car. I never thought about it until you commented but I think I'd go 86 over Supra. But if you can...M2 > > GR86 > Supra Hope that helps! -Ben

Hey thanks for the great info. Would you consider the Supra GT as good as a BMW M2 Competition for a daily driver?

[@shouldigetit]

You’re welcome Brian! To be honest I haven’t driven the M2C so I can’t speak on it. The biggest differences would probably be in the transmission and I’m assuming the BMW has a button to open the trunk if not also the foot activated trunk feature.

[@BlasterJunos]

I personally don't mind the fact that it's very BMW reminiscent and seeing the cargo space wants me to get it even more but I'd have to disagree on the looks. Most of the car is super photogenic with the exception of the hood. I'd personally get an FT-1 looking bodykit since the hood just grinds my gears for reasons I can't understand

[@SameScreen]

I ended up with a M240i although I was really interested in the Supra. The choice came down to a few attributes - the M240i was a hair cheaper plus next to no interest on payments, I got X-Drive since we get winter (not necessary but very nice to have), it has a sunroof (I like this or convertibles), and the M240i is on an older chassis, so no worries on first model year problems. Now the single thing that could have changed all of this and turned the tables is....targa top on the Supra.

[@shouldigetit]

Nice pickup and congrats on the new car! Curious to hear what city you're in and what color Supra you were considering / what color M240i you got. Thanks for watching!

[@SameScreen]

@@shouldigetit I likely would have ended up with red, really not much for color choices on any modern cars these days. I ended up with Sunset Orange on the M240i, was originally looking at either of the blues but there was no stock with the options I was looking for, Orange was the only other "color" so I went with it. I'm up in Edmonton, we end up with snow on the roads 4 to 6 months a year, so while I have driven FWD and RWD throughout the years without issue, AWD is truly nice to have in winter. It would be nice if all RWD biased AWD cars had a RWD only mode like the M5/M8 and others for summer time, best of both worlds!
