Toyota GR Supra MT vs AT
Verdict
At RM698,000 versus RM708,000, this is a straight gearbox decision, not a different-car decision. Both GR Supras use the same 2,998 cc petrol engine with 383 hp and 500 Nm, drive the rear wheels, seat two and carry 290 litres of boot space. The automatic is quicker, doing 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds against the manual’s 4.4 seconds, while top speed is identical at 250 km/h. For RM10,000, the AT buys measurable launch pace; the MT buys the manual gearbox and saves cash.
Pick the Toyota GR Supra MT if you want the manual transmission and would rather keep RM10,000 than gain 0.3 seconds to 100 km/h.
Pick the Toyota GR Supra AT if you want the quicker 0-100 km/h time and prefer a conventional automatic transmission.
