NA or TT


Ricepilot

Recommended Posts

just to expand on what John has said, I miss that 60-100mph surge that is awesome in a TT. Motorway at 80 mph and someone moves in you're by them in the blink of an eye, the NA does the job but it's not quite the same.

 

Ricepilot, the NA will most probably (obviously if manual) be a five speed not a 6 speed like in a TT that I presume you test drove along with the auto. This is an altogether different gearbox which from memory is many times smoother and feels more refined than the very strong but somewhat noisy/clunky 6 speed box. So this may swing you back to favouring the manual!

 

The NA's linear power can make it feel a bit slower than it really is when driven back to back. However if you don't think you'll be satisfied with the power after a while, bear in mind that there is no real extra performance that can be extracted from the NA, by modding at a later date.

 

Buying from a dealer is many peoples choice, which is fair enough, but it makes it all that more important to get the initial choice right as it will cost you more financially if you later change your mind.

 

just a couple of points of view, the important thing is you seem sold on the supra in general, welcome aboard :)
