All it needs is catless exhaust from the turbo and a good tune.

I'd rather turbo a BRZ than have a B48 supra with a catless exhaust and tune.
Oh wait, I did just that. |

How much camber can you get on a new Supra these days? That might be a bigger problem then anything else lol. |

Stock there is a little bit of adjustment in the rear and nothing on the front. FWIW the cars are set up horribly from the factory. Toyota gave the front a degree of toe inward on the front and none on the rear, making it very twitchy feeling. Camber wise, I want to say mine had 1.4° camber on everything except one of the back wheels which was 2.0°! I have zero clue on what the 2.0's can achieve with the smaller wheels/calipers/rotors but, I imagine it is similar.

GR86 and even my current 86 over the Supra. Just a personal preference thing. If I'm gonna be in a small coupe, I want small coupe weight.
Yes it's faster and more comfortable. I worked with BMW for a while and drove pretty much every single new car for a few years at release events and all their M cars at special events at Thermal. They're great cars; just not what I want.

I’m a BMW guy but the Supra doesn’t do anything for me outside of the B58. I have two friends who bought them for track use (one coming from a first gen BRZ) and both have been very disappointed, one even selling his back to the dealer pretty quickly after a few track days and a bunch of money spent trying to set it up to his liking. Out of those two I would pick the GR86 for sure, but my FRS replacement is personally going to be a F22 M240i with a 6 speed.

Same here. Went wild camping in Norway for 2+ weeks with just that car and it wasn't even filled to the brim.
It also got used as the main "renovation van" for our apartment refurbishment, and did many a trip to the hardware store to get 2.4m long (EU standard, about 95in) wood planks or various crap. In other words, it works really well as an only car. |

I have a car that run around the ring around 45 seconds faster than the supra. But I am still getting a gr86 because driving isn’t always about how fast. I enjoy the engagement of a sub 3000 lbs, low powered manual coupe with short wheelbase and low center of gravity that wants to throw its tail out on every corner. It’s a different kind of fun that can be achieved on the street.

Really enjoy the feeling going around a corner in a light car. And even with a M/T Supra coming, I'd still take the GR86 because of this. But I'd probably take a GR Corolla over both. Sorry wrong thread
