Swapped out the Daily Driver recently

Well, after 5 years with my STi, I decided I wanted something a bit more fun.  I didn't need as much practicality that a back seat offers since I don't take kids to school anymore.  The main issue I had was figuring out what, exactly, to get.  Ultimately, I decided on a new 2025 GR Supra 3.0 Premium.

I am simply stunned by how fast this thing is.  So far, I've only tinted the windows.  And Gary Dean is going to be coating the car next week.  But I have a few more mods planned.  It is still a bit annoying that there is no Android Auto in the car, but I'm going to fix that soon as well.

I'm not on here much these days.  But I figured I'd share the news with the few others that still frequent this place from time to time.

haha.  I know, right?!  I didn't realize that was sorta my thing and then it just happened that way.  The Supra (mostly BMW M4) is just more exciting than the STi was.  And it's half the price of a Nissan GT-R.  While I know the Supra is a LOT of BMW in it, it still has some Toyota design and styling and really looks impressive.  It's incredibly fast too.  I always wanted a MK IV Supra.  But those are way over priced now and it's a 30+ year old chassis.  So this is the closest thing I can get.

Since the platform is really foreign to me (both geographically and familiarity), it will give me a lot to explore and learn about the car as well.  I'm hoping to regain at least some of the same thrills I got after I bought the Spyder.  And I think this is the car that will do it.

I'm sure it will bring some of the joy back. I'm waiting for the used C8's to come down in price. How long do you think I might have to wait ?? 🤔
