Wow this engine will not comply with the strict emissions regulations they had overthere. Sad they gone to have the same treatment we have for years but doesn’t surprise me if we are next on the chopping block. It might will be a Japan exclusive model like a lot of good stuff they have already, you look at the last Supra we got and the rest of the world got and is ages of difference.

Well, this just adds more credibility to the thought MY25 is the final year. It’s seemingly got the axe here In Canada already. We don’t have a product page for it anymore, just a banner for the remaining MY25 cars coming over the summer.

The Ultimate Edition is a lame sendoff car. This is the true definition of a parts bin car. What a disappointment. We'll see what Honda has in store for North America, but a nothing burger wouldn't surprise me. The 300-run GR Supra A90 Final Edition is a proper swan song car.

I agree it’s disappointing as a send off. Doesn’t change the fact that 10 years from now, a low mile version will fetch quite a bit.

If the send off was going to be this lame, I’d have preferred the Racing Black Edition with the carbon bits. It should include more power but we’re talking about Honda here… they are the most conservative Japanese automaker out of the big three.

The FK8 LE send off didn't have any more power but at least we got a yellow paintjob, different suspension, forged wheels, R spec tyres, weight reduction and they unashamedly tuned it to go fast around Suzuka.
