I really wish that they would have put the new 3.5TT motor in this from lexus. These stats would be ok with me in this little package:

3.5L V-6 Engine
416 @ 6,000 rpm Horsepower
442 @ 1,600 rpm Torque

If Toyota had any soul at all...they'd re-release an updated style 90's Lexus SC300 as a Lexus SC350 with that engine!

December 13, 2018
PLANO, Texas (Dec. 13, 2018) -- Sportscar enthusiasts have been anxiously anticipating sliding behind the wheel of their own all-new 2020 Supra. The honor of being the first one to do so will go to the highest bidder at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Saturday, January 19, 2019.

This one-of-a-kind Supra will be the first new Supra available in the U.S in more than 20 years and will carry VIN number 20201. It will feature a matte gray exterior with red mirror caps, a red leather interior and matte black wheels. A carbon-fiber badge on the interior will indicate its status as the first 2020 Supra. Additional exclusive experiences will be announced prior to the auction.
All proceeds of the sale will be shared by the American Heart Association and the Bob Woodruff Foundation. The American Heart Association’s mission is to be a relentless force for a world of longer, healthier lives. The Bob Woodruff Foundation finds, funds, and shapes innovative programs that help our post-9/11 impacted veterans, service members and their families thrive long after their time in uniform.

The Supra prototype on display at Barrett-Jackson will be representative of the actual production vehicle that will be delivered in the first half of 2019.

The World Premiere of the 2020 Supra will take place Monday, January 14, 2019, at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The reveal will be livestreamed for global audiences.

The only ones that will race are gunna be tuned and if it's anything like bmws these will put down 500 wheel with a tune and e85 only with stock parts and stock this and that. And they'll say stock a lot.

Annnnnnnd?

2018 A10s run 10s NA with simple bolt ons and a tune too.
Stock intake manifold and everything else below it. Exhaust+CIA+Tune make 500whp
Gen3 Coyotes say stock alot too. Stock engines are deep in the 8s......

NA they make 500 easily enough too.

The turbo 6's are hitting 1000hp...Assholes like me with a bigger IC and stock everything are hitting 500 without much effort. It's only the fueling holding them back.

If they can keep the weight down and not have some BMW derived faux traction system it might actually be a winner...BTW Xdrive sucks the fun out of a car

That last part.......

I have a feeling Toyota will do a fine abortion job on their own even without BMWs help

:rofl: sorry not sorry.

Cant you disable it entirely?

S550 mustang its the plug by the airbox just unplug it

Has to be coded out of the various drivetrain modules. It leaves on the "eDiff". So if one wheel slips, it applies the brake so the other side goes. It's effective, but really limits the car. You can code the ediff off, but you have to swap in an LSD to replace it. There's a company specific to BMW tranny tuning that just started offering xdrive delete software too.
