Default Toyota Supra GR - 0% Financing!

Umm... has Toyota lost its mind?

Trying to clear the lot of the 2020 for the 2021 already? Maybe... wishfully thinking to make room for a manual?

Probably just trying to shift inventory since there's a pandemic about that's preventing a lot of people from buying cars right now.

I think now that the specs of the 2021 model is out and confirmed, it's going to be hard for Toyota to sell the 2020 model.

2020 Model, with the 3.0 motor - Starting MSRP: $49,990

2021 Model, with the 3.0 motor (projected pricing from Car and Drivers) - Starting MSRP: $52,000
+ 47HP, factory warranted HP
+ 8inch infotainment screen across the entire line-up
+ Various other suspension re-tuning

That's a projected price difference of $2,000. I'm willing to bet that going the aftermarket cannot provide +47HP for $2,000. Let's not forget this is a factory warranted gain.

Its amazing how many bad decisions they made to piss of enthusiasts. Not a Toyota, no stick, then the ones that supported you, sorry guys thanks for being early adopters, gonna upgrade the engine after one year. Smh.

I feel bad for anyone who bought one of these - I don't care what people say, its a BMW.

I've also heard of $5000 being taken off MSRP for the 2020s. THAT makes it worth it IMO. Since the 2020s are still brand new cars, one way to look at them as the mid level offering now.

2021 4 cylinder - $42k
2020 6 cylinder - $45-46k (if $5000 off is true)
2021 6 cylinder - $52k

Works for me.
