Yahoo Autos 2024 Toyota Supra 45th Anniversary Edition Slaps On a Big Wing
The 2024 Toyota Supra is adding a 45th Anniversary Edition.
It is available in either orange or white and it has a manually adjustable rear wing and some added graphics.
900 units will be produced for the U.S. and it will go on sale this fall.
UPDATE 7/18/23: The 2024 Supra 45th Anniversary Edition will start at $65,470, Toyota announced. That makes it $6995 more expensive than the 3.0 Premium trim, which starts at $58,745 for 2024. The Anniversary model is available with either an eight-speed automatic transmission or a six-speed manual as a no-cost option.
The current generation of the Toyota Supra went on sale for the 2020 model year, so Toyota just missed the 40th anniversary of the first-gen Celica Supra that arrived for 1979. But now it's making a big deal out of the Supra's 45th birthday with a new Anniversary Edition for 2024.
The special-edition model comes in either white or orange paint, and the orange hue is called Mikan Blast ("mikan" means orange in Japanese). The big addition is a manually adjustable rear wing that can switch between different angles. Matte-black 19-inch wheels, a black graphic on the side, orange strut tower braces, and GR logos on the brake calipers round out the visual changes. Toyota says it's meant to look like the Mk IV Supra of "big screen fame," clearly hinting at the Supra from The Fast and the Furious.
The 45th Anniversary Edition comes with the 382-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine and either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission. Only 900 units will be produced, half in white and half in orange. The standard Supra 3.0 and 2.0 models, the latter of which has a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four, will continue on for the new model year without changes. Pricing for the 2.0 starts at $46,635 and the 3.0 starts at $55,595.
