Actually, I love the BMW look. Just like I love Audi's understated yet evolutionary changes.

However, it's not difficult to get BMW models and years confused. They're not as visually impacting. I can see why someone would want a BMW with a sexy, different Japanese body style. I love the M2/M240i, but it's very difficult to justify the price tag for a rather generic looking 2-door when you can have the Supra with a sexy distinctive body.

Also, I just find it funny when people say "but it's not a real Supra, it's a BMW!" Yeah, then those people have nothing against going out and buying an M2/M4 instead. Lol.

I can't wait to see what it'll look like in that green wrap once they're done!

Not to mention that there are many, MANY people that would not go out and buy a M2/M4 instead. Or any BMW for that matter.

Imo, this makes the back end duck bill shit acceptable because it covers it quite nicely.

it's eyelash extensions. i can see what you're saying, and i like it better, i just don't like being forced into it.





the 2 most irritating parts of the new supra to me is the ducktail (imo, it would look quite nice without the ducktail), and the automatic transmission.

Agreed, plus the open grill and nose for me. A wing/lip like that and a new front bumper would go far to improve the overall look.
