Not that it really matters...
...but I finally saw a new Supra on the road today. Even though a lot of people say that the car looks better in person, this was not the case for me. I can get over the cost and the majority BMW DNA... but the styling is the reason I won't buy one.

If you have the monwy the 3.0 is the best.
If you don't have the 3.0 money, maybe the 2.0 may have to do.

Yeah , it looks that the 2.0lt is just a budget compromise. The small weight difference doesn't make much of an advantage. Maybe a reason is also the different suspension setting and the lack of adaptive dampers.

I wonder what tuning can do on this 4pot. It's been around for a while. Guessing tune, downpipe and bigger turbo? Add in flex fuel and it would be a pretty quick car but then you might as well just gotten the 3.0 car

Cast 18" wheels and suspension looks to be an area that could be improved in the 2.0lt model. Turbos are also easier to tune. Not sure how many would go in this direction, when the 3.0lt model is tuned by the factory and with a warranty.
