The A90 Toyota Supra Final Edition is a GT4 racing car for the street

From 2019 to 2025, that’s a decent run for one generation of super-niche cars like Toyota Supra. But I’m still a little sad to know that the A90 body will soon be discontinued. An extremely limited batch of Final Edition cars will act as a send-off… and a pretty cool one at that. This thing looks like the perfect Batman x Fast and Furious crossover car, in a good way, and it also gets a bit of a power boost. But the really neat aspects are the aero and suspension settings made with Gazoo Racing’s GT4 technology.

Toyota actually announced two special variants of the outgoing Supra today. The aforementioned Final Edition will only be available in Europe and Japan and is limited to 300 units. There will also be a tamer, partially facelifted trim that will be sold in more markets (full list to be determined).

The Final Edition boot is pretty comprehensive, borrowing a lot of technology and concepts from European racing venture Toyota Gazoo.

Engine upgrades include a revised intake and exhaust with a low-backpressure catalytic converter and an Akrapovič titanium muffler. Combined with the new engine setup, Toyota Gazoo Racing claims that output has been increased from 381 hp. to 429. In particular, they said that from 387 hp. The torque claim ranges from 369 lb-ft to 420.

Ancillary modifications include an oil pan baffle that helps keep the engine lubricated under heavy cornering, a new aftermarket radiator, a stronger radiator cooling fan and new cooling fins on the rear differential.

Adjustable suspension system KW from GR Supra GT4 racing carwith 16 degrees of rebound and 12 degrees of compression, was replaced along with reinforced front and rear anti-roll bars.

There are also new mounts all over the car, and of course you can see crossmembers in the luggage compartment, designed to increase rigidity (and make the Supra look cooler). The differential control has been adjusted and the electric power steering has also been adjusted for compatibility with the increased stiffness, while the front and rear camber characteristics have been adjusted to focus on the Corning clutch.

The exterior aero ideas were also taken from the GR Supra GT4, and you can tell from the photo in the wind tunnel that the Toyota Gazoo didn’t mess around here. There’s a carbon fiber front spoiler, front skid plates, front center flap, and of course the big old swan neck spoiler at the back. It looks a little strange attached to the duck tail, but I believe the Toyota team knows what they are doing. There’s also a removable carbon fiber hood duct that can supposedly increase cooling performance.

All this awesomeness rides on a set of lightweight wheels (19″ front, 20″ rear) with high-grip Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires that are 10% wider than standard Supras. Brakes are giant Brembos with stainless lines.

The interior is complete with a nice set of Recaro Podium CF seats and Alcantara trim. I can’t say the cockpit looks comfortable, but it’s super cool.

The whole package largely eschews comfort in favor of race car parts, so the A90 Supra Final Edition is likely to be an absolute riot to drive on tracks and a few pristine roads, while miserable elsewhere. But this is normal – such a car should be hardcore. I just hope that the people who end up picking them up (price to be determined, but if you have to ask…) put the things into use instead of letting them are in private museums.

But wait, there’s more! The new facelifted Supra, a surprisingly unflattering name for a tuned sports car, also has some interesting tweaks compared to the base car. The brakes are a little bigger, the body got some small fenders, and the interior got embroidered Alcantara.

The partially upgraded car’s transmission features a new Active Differential Control configuration to reduce cornering understeer and improve handling, but the main additions appear to be stiffening of the body and suspension settings.

The shock absorbers with electronic control were revised and the front stabilizer was strengthened. The front and rear anti-roll bars are made from reinforced aluminum, while some bushings have been reinforced for improved response and feel. There is a stiffening of the rear floor structure to increase body rigidity, the power steering has been adjusted, and the camber has been adjusted to improve cornering grip through tire wear.

I’ve never driven a manual Supra, but I did spend some time with the 2.0L and 3.0L options when they first came out. I remember liking the design, but I was a bit lukewarm on the actual driving experience. Maybe a stick change will change that. However, after looking at some of these photos, I find myself wondering what they sell for used. What a wonderful car. I hope Toyota follows this up with another hit.
