The supra looks nice in person but didn't grab me the way the frs did 7 years ago.

I'm all for no fake vents, etc, but that doesn't mean the car has to look like a used bar of soap either. Again, all personal preference of course.

If you expect air conditioning, you'll likely need a vent somewhere or other.

When the soap dries it gets that crack down the middle.

Pretty sure electric motors make a shit tin of heat when pressed.
That fan on the front of an alternator isn't just for looks. #banthefakevents

I don't want this article to digress to an Apple vs The World argument. It is hard to argue about Apple's ethos being unique when almost all manufactures copy Apple's products and ethos now, and some may even shoot for a simpler design. Even Alienware, who has been known for aggressive and bold designs in the past, is starting to follow suit.

Apple has never been a performance leader (IMHO) but a style leader. They have traded off functionality in favor of design as far back as the original Mac.

First delivered to a dealer in New York Clean Georgia title. This thing has been around a bit all ready even if it was all on the back of a truck.
