On this episode of the Carbitrage Podcast, we conclude the obvious in that no one likes the Toyota CH-R, Toyota saving that story with news that the MKV Supra is enroute to the USA with a 6-speed manual on the B48 and B58 engines, and GR-MN version is coming with the S58 as well. Front wheel drive Celicas are under rated cars, Corolla hatch XSE trim giving way to a GR trim with AWD and some racier components. BaT gets accolades for selling by far the most dollars worth of auction vehicles in 2021, the VW ID.4 has woeful winter efficiency, Toyota expanding their heritage parts offers, and a low spec 2007 E91 manual just hammered for 27,000.
