Toyota GR Supra Track Edition review (video)

With production of the current-generation Toyota GR Supra now wrapped up, this more focused Track Edition variant serves as a final send-off. The best of the breed?

It builds on the existing BMW CLAR-based, front-mounted, turbo inline-six, rear-wheel drive formula with a series of handling upgrades, alongside subtle visual tweaks that distinguish it from the rest of the range. There’s also a sense that this is one for the enthusiasts, particularly given the availability of a six-speed manual.

With a next-generation Supra reportedly in development – without the BMW partnership – the Track Edition is the closing chapter of a unique era for Toyota. Overseas, an even more hardcore ‘Final Edition’ is offered with a boosted 320kW engine tune. In Australia the Track Edition uses the standard 285kW setup.

2025 Toyota GR Supra Track Edition: How much does it cost?

Although production has now finished for this generation Supra at the Magna Steyr factory in Graz, Austria (same place that builds the BMW Z4 and current Mercedes G-Class), some existing stock is still floating around. According to VFACTS figures for April this year, 16 examples were newly-registered. And in fact 43 examples have hit the roads so far this year.

Our guess is all of the dealership-allocated Track Editions have been sold out by the time you read this, but, you never know; some might be floating around in the yards. Prices start from $105,295 for either the manual or auto as new (excluding on-roads), which makes it $9000 more than the GTS variant that it is based on.

2025 Toyota GR Supra Track Edition: Interior & packaging

Inside, the Supra remains very much a driver-focused environment. The low seating position, tight cabin, and cocooned layout all reinforce the car’s sporting intent, but they also highlight some of its limitations. Space is at a premium, and storage options are minimal. You don’t have much room for anything but your phone around the centre console, with twin cup holders replacing a storage box, and that’s about it. Even the door pockets are almost useless.

The boot is more accommodating than the cabin might suggest, offering 290L, or enough room for a couple of weekend bags. It’s not an outright grand tourer, but it is usable enough for short trips away. There’s a chunky beam running across to separate the cabin and boot, with big speakers in it like something from Fast & Furious, and a netted pocket in the back corner. You could feed long items straight through to the cabin if you needed to.

As for the Track Edition, it adds a few unique touches, including Alcantara and leather upholstery, GR branding, and red highlights such as the seatbelts and shift ring on manual versions. There’s also a carbon fibre ducktail spoiler on the back, bespoke wheel arch aero spats, unique 19-inch matt black alloy wheels, and larger 374mm front brakes with red-painted calipers. These are subtle, but they help reinforce the sense that this is an exclusive package. It would have been cool if Toyota offered some proper sports seats, even a set of Bride items, just to really emphasise the JDM celebration.

2025 Toyota GR Supra Track Edition: Powertrain & handling

This is where the Supra continues to shine. The combination of a 3.0-litre turbocharged inline-six BMW engine (the B58), with rear-wheel drive, and a proper six-speed manual transmission is increasingly rare these days, and it’s every bit as rewarding as you’d hope. The engine produces 285kW and 500Nm, but it’s the delivery that stands out.

You get all 500Nm from just 1800rpm, which means, as soon as you’re ready to release the clutch after dialling up some revs, it’s ready to go. Full torque is held all the way until 5000rpm as well, so there’s no running out and certainly no flat spots or dips in delivery, at all. This is as smooth as they come. From there, you get a progressive build of power, with the peak hit reached at an ear-tingling 6500rpm. At this point, your body is melting and you have uncontrollable goosebumps doing a Mexican wave down your spine.

The manual transmission is a highlight in itself. The shift action is precise and mechanical, while the clutch has a natural, hydraulic feel that’s easy to judge. It all adds to a sense of connection that’s hard to replicate. Each gear has a long-legged run, so, on the track, you’re able to shift down the second and really pounce away from corners; many of the common tracks in Australia would usually require third gear for a mix of acceleration and long-reaching charge, but in this, second gear brings you up near 100km/h.

From a chassis perspective, the Track Edition sharpens things up a bit. You get revised anti-roll bars, stiffer bushings, more negative camber dialled in, and additional bracing, all contributing to bring a tighter, more responsive feel. The steering has also been recalibrated, offering improved weight and feedback. We had a chance to do a few laps out on Winton Raceway during this test and, there, it felt really engaging and fun. Oversteer is not only possible but very controllable thanks to the fine-tuned chassis and steering. It seemed less twitchy than the latest Supra, and certainly compared with the first iteration of the GR Supra.

On the road, it translates to a planted and composed feel, with strong front-end grip and predictable behaviour through corners. The limited-slip differential does its job well, ensuring power is deployed cleanly without resorting to one-wheel spin. It’s actually got a fair bit of grip, partly thanks to the planted chassis and partly thanks to the Michelin 235/45 front and 275/35 rear Pilot Super Sport tyres.

While it’s clearly more focused, the suspension remains compliant enough for Australian roads. Even on less-than-perfect surfaces, it avoids the overly harsh ride that some rivals fall into. It does feature adaptive dampers as well, with Sport mode firming them up for when you want to hit the track. You can drive on regular roads in Sport mode but ordinary Aussie country roads are going to feel a bit harsh.

Fuel consumption is better than expected. Despite some time on track, we averaged around 11.2L/100km during our week of testing. The official average for the manual is 9.1L//100km while the auto is just 7.7L/100km – proving how good that ZF eight-speed really is. Even so, it is relatively efficient for a car of this performance level.

Speaking of which, we ran some acceleration tests with the Vbox and saw 0-100km/h clocked in 4.70 seconds and the quarter-mile in 12.83 seconds at 186.3km/h. The official 0-100km/h claim in the manual is 4.4 seconds – we have no doubt it could achieve that on a decent surface. The auto claims it in 4.1 seconds.

2025 Toyota GR Supra Track Edition: Key attractions/reasons to buy

• Proper engagement: Increasingly rare combination of manual, rear-wheel drive and turbo inline-six is a real treat for the senses.
• Track Edition tweaks: Sharper chassis and improved steering feel for the special edition are a noticeable and nice touch for the send-off.
• Presence: Whether you like or dislike the design of the GR Supra is up to you, but there is no denying this thing has presence on the road. We think it looks awesome and a fitting tribute to its heritage.

2025 Toyota GR Supra Track Edition: Key considerations before you buy

• Not as practical as some: No rear seats and tight cabin with limited storage mean it’s probably not ideal for long-distance grand touring.
• Not as hardcore as overseas Final Edition: Other markets received a 320kW boost for their ‘Final Edition’ version.
• Fake sounds: Although undoubtedly one of the best-sounding engines currently around, Toyota has, for some reason, added fake sounds in Sport mode… there’s no need for them.
