Hey everyone.

 

Im still looking to get a supra within the next year and i am currently set on getting a manual tt imported cause i know someone who imports japanese cars nearby.

 

But more to the point, im just wondering, how exactly does the autobox work on a supra, ive not used one before.

 

Does it have sport mode etc? A manual control setting or is it simple, park, drive etc. How much control can you get?

 

Thanks! :)

Hey Luke (it's Luke again), it's gonna set you back a good £2500 (if not more) to get it sprayed properly.

 

The Supras autobox is amongst the best you can get in a sports car, but you will truly miss the manual gear changing if you are more manual orientated.
