Toyota confirmed the 2023 Supra with a manual gearbox in April 2022. It has a final-drive ratio of 3.46, versus 3.15 for the automatic. You can identify the model by the red Supra lettering on the rear bumper.

With the manual, the interior is slightly different to create a 1.7-inch clearance between the buttons on the console and the shift knob.

The US gets the A91-MT special edition. It takes the Premium grade and adds Cognac leather with an Alcantara-wrapped shift knob. There's a 12-speaker JBL stereo. Toyota is making just 500 of them.
