Toyota GR Supra (A90)
Why 6.5: The purists litigated the BMW bones for years while owners just drove the thing. The manual's arrival settled the argument — and the tuner scene adopted the B58 like it was a 2JZ.

Sound
The B58 has a smooth deep straight-six tone and the exhaust pops convincingly on the overrun. But the pops are largely manufactured, the augmentation is heavy-handed, and two turbos with a 7,000 rpm limit leave nothing to build towards. The handshake worked everywhere except here.

Child seats · ISOFIX
There aren't any — strict two-seater.
Front passenger seat carries ISOFIX and i-Size lower anchors as standard, plus a driver-visible passenger-airbag cutoff enabling a rearward-facing seat up front — unchanged from the shared BMW Z4 (G29) body and confirmed on the Toyota-badged car specifically.
Built by Magna Steyr on the same body and seat structure as the BMW Z4 roadster — no rear seats on either badge, and the front-seat child-seat provisioning carries over identically.

The long version
While enthusiast forums spent years relitigating how much Supra is actually in a car co-developed with BMW, actual owners split into two practical camps: tuners bolting bigger turbos onto the B58 because it takes power almost as well as the engine it's compared to, and stock-spec buyers just enjoying a genuinely quick GT car on weekend roads. The manual's arrival in 2023 pulled in a third group who'd been waiting specifically for three pedals before committing. Values have slid gradually since launch — normal depreciation for a car being used rather than protected, not the kind of curve you see on something people are sitting on.
