Unless you completely avoided social media for the duration of SEMA 2019, you’re more than likely aware that the A90/Mk5 Toyota Supra had an overwhelming presence at the big show. In addition to the numerous examples displayed at Toyota’s booth, the new Supra showed up in every hall at a variety of different booths. The entire roster of more than 45 A90 Supras ranged from stock to heavily modified depending on where you looked. Some vendors used the new platform to showcase their newest product, while others showcased completely reimagined examples of the new Toyota sport compact contender. Let’s take a closer look at some of the Mk5 Supras at SEMA 2019.

In addition to the stock examples in Toyota’s booth, they also featured a handful of aftermarket builds from popular tuners, similar to their Scion Tuner Challenge from a few years ago.

The most common visual transformation to the new Supra was the Pandem widebody kit. Our friends at Air Lift Performance utilized a red example to show off their air suspension development for the brand new platform.

Popular YouTube star, Stradman, had his Supra on display in the central lobby in his signature purple on white color scheme. The contrasting colors and deep dish wheels definitely set this example apart.

European Auto Group Supra

European Auto Group’s Supra may have fooled most passers-by with its stock exterior and unassuming exterior, but it was one of the most exciting examples at SEMA. Take a peek inside the cabin and you’ll notice that the signature BMW automatic shifter is gone, and replaced with a manual! This by itself makes it one of our favorite Supras of the show.

Toyo Treadpass Supra

Not one to be outdone by the rest of the show, Toyo Tires made sure their annual Treadpass exhibit featured one of the most heavily modified Mk5 Supras of the show. In just 45 days, this Supra was outfitted with a Pandem kit, a set of TE37 Ultra Track Edition 2 wheels, Cusco sway bars and bracing, KW V3 suspension, and Toyo R888R tires. Inside the cockpit, Recaro Pro Racer RMS seats, a cage from Studio RSR. Under the hood, a Pure700 turbo kit paired with an SSR Performance downpipe, a titanium exhaust, and a custom tune boost power to 672 whp and 625 lb-ft of torque.

Ultimate Auto Supra

Ultimate Auto was challenged to build the ultimate tuner-styled A90 Supra in just 20 days, and by all accounts they delivered with a glimpse into the future of the A90’s wild styling. A bright lime green exterior matches the large green Vossen wheels, and the blue underglow is the perfect match for the intricate and beautiful audio setup in the trunk. The Rocket Bunny kit was a must for this look.

GReddy Supra SEMA 2019 11Nov 05 SEMA Day 1 pt 1 050 Gerbie Reyes

GReddy / Ken Gushi Supra

One of the show’s most insane Mk5 Supras came courtesy of GReddy Performance Products and Ken Gushi. Just like most of the modified Supras at the show, this one featured a Pandem kit. Unlike the others, GReddy’s Supra was a serious purpose-built drift car. The BMW B58 engine is bolstered thanks to a BorgWarner EFR 7163G turbocharger, as well as GReddy’s own intercooler, intake and exhaust manifolds, oil cooler, and exhaust, all functioning in harmony thanks to a MoTeC management system. Instead of the automatic ZF transmission, you’ll find a Samsonas sequential gearbox paired to a ClutchMasters FX850 twin-plate clutch. Helping achieve more angle for drifting is a Wisefab kit and some KW Suspension coilovers. All of the hard work put into building a fully operational drift car earned GReddy the Best GR Supra award from Toyota USA themselves!

A second widebody option for owners of the Mk5 Supra debuted at SEMA 2019, courtesy of popular YouTube star and builder TJ Hunt. The StreetHunter kit is a collaborative effort between TJ Hunt and Streetfighter LA, and features a new wing that serves as a tribute to the Mk4 Supra’s wing, inspired by the design of the FD RX-7. The 16 to 18-piece kit is now available for preorders, so if you’re looking for a different option for your A90, act fast!

Yokohama Supra

The team from Yokohama pulled out all the stops for their outdoor booth at this year’s show, showing off all sorts of racecars in their iconic red and black livery, including the new Supra. These guys definitely have our vote for coolest booth design of the year.

Of course, these are just a few of the almost countless examples of the A90 Supra at SEMA 2019, but overall we would have to say the platform is growing on us the more we see the aftermarket get their hands on it. The future of the Supra is bright.
