Japanese outlet Creative Trend reports the GR Supra will be revealed in a six-speed manual guise on April 28, 2022, with production commencing in July and Japanese deliveries beginning in October. The three-pedal option will reportedly come with the turbocharged 3.0L inline six-cylinder engine, instead of being restricted to the turbo 2.0-litre four-cylinder. The manual Supra will be limited to the RZ-spec car in Japan, though it’s possible that it could come to other markets as well. The manual Supra will be produced in a 50-car series of Matte White Editions to honour the car’s launch, with special interiors, exclusive paint, and extra tech. Its pricing was given only in JPY, indicating this edition is likely Japan-only.
