Seriously, who approved of this rear design? What a freaking hot mess.

What do you not like about it? I think it looks pretty good (I would not buy one though).

I think the tail lights are too small, but in general it's OK. Still don't like it for some reason I can't quite put my finger on though.

Looks very Audi/Mercedes, not impressed. BMW manages to move farther and farther from designs that I personally enjoy. Give us sharp edges and boxier designs please... The e36 was too good :/

to each their own but from reading all the comments from different blogs and forums; most people like the rear the best.
the number one complaint is from the front. people wished the headlights were slimer like on the concept. another thing is the hoodline, it should have been lower like with the Z3. and lastly that Kia grille... |

Nah, that won't matter to me. Maybe if Toyota had used a different name but there is nothing about this that is Supra except marketing.

The main thing I get out of this picture is that over time the only thing that really changed is the grills got bigger.

7:55 for a GT convertible is pretty good. I'd expect the Supra to sit around 7:40~7:45.
