I think it is a good car. But it depends of the preferences of each one

Today I was asked for the tenth time (yes 10) if my car was the new Supra. Since not one of those people (yes none) had ever heard of an 86 before and I had to explain what it was I would say the Supra has much more "presence" with the general public than many people here give it credit for.
They have no clue what a Supra actually looks like but they know it exists.

Gotta say, I was super excited for the Supra and then when I saw it without camouflage, it just never grew on me. Sometimes, at certain angles (particularly from the rear), it looks good, but then I just can't get over how busy and tacked-on it looks. The design just neve grew on me.

I’m not a fan. Too bulky looking. Papadakis has the best wide body IMO.

Fitment issue?

i have seen more vehicles with underglow in the past 3 months than i ever did during the early 2000's when f&f came out.

just saying it fits the time frame.


one day i'm going to do underglow just for fun. but intend to do it right, where the entire underbody glows...

I don't even remember the last time I saw a car with underglow. lol. I did (white) puddle lights on my first Yaris, but that really isn't the same thing.

Mostly the stupid lifted trucks/jeeps with 20-30 series 'offroad' tires on expensive chrome wheels. The kind of vehicles that would take days to clean up if they got any mud on them.

Have the 2022 changes been hinted at yet? IIRC Toyota said the first 5 years were getting upgrades each year. 2021 kinda blew past with the 2.0 and A91 pkg.

Having stick-on LED strips instead of old-school fluorescent glass bulbs is a huge plus... get to it.
