He sounds like he should be selling an all-in-one mop on a 3am infomercial.

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.

Yea, it looks exactly like every picture I've seen of it. Not seeing the difference either.

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
