The first Toyobaru twin, the Toyota GR86 and Subaru BRZ are probably the best sports cars for beginners. While it has only been 2 years since the second generation was introduced, Toyota is rumoured to have already started development of the next generation but without the help of Subaru. Japanese automotive publication, Best Car Web reported that the next generation of the GR86 could be utilising the turbocharged 1.6-litre 3-cylinder engine as seen in the GR Corolla and GR Yaris. While the two

Sat on the start/finish straight, I await a countdown to launch the new 2023 Toyota GR Supra 6-Speed Manual (6MT). Moments before – I ease up on the clutch to figure out the all-important bite point is, the point at which the engine and manual transmission become seamlessly connected and power can be put to the ground.

In the midst of the EV movement in Malaysia, there is still a number of upcoming models that will get petrol heads excited for in 2023.

BMW Malaysia has announced an update to the locally-assembled (CKD) BMW 218i Gran Coupe in the form of the new BMW Live Cockpit Professional infotainment system, following its Malaysian launch in October last year. The BMW Live Cockpit Professional featured in the BMW 218i Gran Coupe now consists of a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster (previously 5.1-inch) and a 10.25-inch central information display (previously 8.8-inch).

As much clout as the Toyota GR Supra has been given by some fans, it is a brilliant modern sports car. We think it’s more improved than the BMW Z4 it was based on to the point it drives better than its German twin. Following a performance upgrade that was introduced in July 2020, UMW Toyota Motor has given the sports car another update. This time it’s the addition of Apple CarPlay albeit wired.

A common complaint for the Toyota 86/Subaru BRZ, or some call them the Toyobaru, is that it lacks power. This is a rather controversial topic because some are adamant that it isn’t about the straight-line performance, it’s all about the fun, twisty bits.
