Burning Rubber: A Hot Lap with the Toyota GR Supra A90 Final Edition
High-Speed Thrills on the Track: Debut Journey with the Supra Final Edition
By Charlie Jones, Los Angeles
Think the days of the Toyota Supra are numbered? You might be right, but before they're gone for good, Toyota's giving us a beastly send-off with the GR Supra A90 Final Edition. Let's dive into what makes this final installment of the Supra so special.
The GR Supra A90 Final Edition is a mutated version of the previous inline-six variant, packing a powerful 441 DIN horsepower and 571 Nm of torque - that's 101 more horses than its predecessor and 142,800 euros more on your wallet[1].
But wait, there's more. To make this final version truly exceptional, Toyota teamed up with the renowned suspension experts at KW. Their racing-inspired suspension system offers 16 rebound and 12 compression settings[1]. Add in some reinforcements from the GT4 version like a crossmember in the trunk and strengthened stabilizers, and you've got record-breaking lap times written all over this bad boy.
And let's not forget about the Akrapovič titanium exhaust system and the RECARO Podium CF full-bucket seats with Alcantara pads and red seat belts. It's a luxurious ride that turns heads[1].
But enough with the chit chat - let's hit the track and feel the burn.
The roar of the inline-six engine under the hood is music to the ears, especially as it reaches the end of the rev range. But it's the chassis that really steals the show. Well-balanced and feather-light, the GR Supra A90 hugs corners like a dream. The steering system is direct and responsive, focusing power precisely where it's needed[2].
With larger 19-inch Brembo front discs and revised camber angles, braking and cornering are a breeze. The powerful engine roars as it accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.1 seconds[3]. And with a top speed of 275 km/h, it's ready for the open road and the race track[1].
Too bad the class-leading performance comes at a price. The Final Edition is a limited run of only 500 vehicles, so grab one while you can. But don't worry, Toyota loyalists - it's unlikely this iconic powerhouse is truly headed for extinction.
