I didn't keep up with this thread as I had no real plans on ever buying a BRG 86, so I didn't even realize it was indeed coming to the US.

But last Saturday I went by my local Toyota dealer for the first time in months. They had 3 Supras on the lot, and a BRG 86. Seemed like a lot for Muncie...

It was also my first time seeing the Supra in person, and while it is maybe a bit busy (especially the rear), I think it looks pretty nice in person. The BRG 86 is pretty slick as well, but not really something I drool over.

Drooling is bad for the paint.. I just don't like the BRG on the Twin.. I'm sure other green hues may look better..

Front end of Supra looks good, rear end is hard to love, hard to like even with that silly duckbill on the truck.

Say's the guy with the car with one of the ugliest rear ends ever made!

I agree on the Supra though. Saw the first one in real life on Saturday and it is just to busy for my liking. Bad enough I am going to have to live with the 86 front bumper I don't want the whole car to consist of weird curves and angles.

Funny I like the Supra rear and dislike the front.

Just think about much the Supra will become an endless money pit over time as it lives up to its BMW roots.
