EW, who do you take your car for service? Hopefully not Bespoke Motorsports

unfortunately the supra has a 10,000 mile mandatory service which must be taken to a toyota dealership and obviously some dealerships are better and trustworthy than others, and even though it could be several hours, i tend to stay with the car at the dealership.

1. Does the 10K mandatory service expire by a certain mileage or time limit?
2. And when you say you tend to stay with the car, do you watch from a waiting room window or do you literally watch over the mechanic's shoulder?
3. Dead @$$ question: If you took your car to Lexus or BMW, could they service your car?

1. The 10K mile service is set on a mileage timer and at the rate im going it'll be 3 to 4 years before I hit 10K miles.

2. I wait in the lobby, the cool thing here in south florida, i dont know if all dealerships do it, but there are several cameras in the autiobay live streaming so customers can see their vehicles. So with this last time I was there, I literally watched the mechanic drive out with it, I was right there waiting on him.

3. Not sure if Lexus/BMW could service it to be honest, thats a good question I'd like to know myself. I do know that not any toyota mechanic can work on the car, you have to be certified Supra mechanic.

I suppose that makes sense about the certified Supra mechanic, but then theoretically, a BMW mechanic that specializes in servicing a Z4 should be able to work on the Supra? Just for sh!ts and giggles, I'm gonna call a local BMW service dept. about this.

I wonder what Toyota would say if someone with a LFA pulled up for their routine service.

I try to stay away from dealerships unless its absolutely imperative (like warranty work)..

however, this last time i pulled the supra in the reception area.. i turned it off, then a few minutes later one of the guys had me move it, so I had to start her up.. and she's LOUD, I usually get a pop and a bang on start up.. and this lady with her kids was sitting in the area, she says to me, that your car? Im like yeah.. she's like daaang thats loud, it almost scared me.

Everyone falls for this trap. Too many people, including myself when I was much younger, where they try to Hulk Smash way too much weight.
