To be fair the G29 doesn't have a manual either, so I don't think it's purely Toyota's decision not to offer it. Having said that, I am personally suffering from ZF8 fatigue as it's just in so many cars these days. A manual just makes sense in a car like this and a DCT would be the optimal automatic offering IMO - both would make the Supra much more special but, again, I don't think that's up to Toyota. |
I think the EU market G29 Z4 comes with a stick but on lower end 20i trims. Either way, stick shift was a missed opportunity for the Supra. The whole Supra in general this generation was a missed opportunity, the M2 is more Supra than the Supra is.
