It identifies itself as exciting, nothing you can do about it.

You're welcome.

On another note, a comparison of the spy shot vs "fake Japanese car magazine".

@vh_supra26

That render looks legit spot on. By the way, about 2 months back I saw this thing testing in SoCal on the 5 fwy in Santa Ana/Tustin. It was in a caravan with a camo'd Bentley/Rolls, driving pretty aggressively for the traffic being so heavy. I tried getting a pic, but opted to not be unsafe trying to get a spy shot. The new Supra isn't so much bigger than an 86 or 370z. The camo'd Bently/Rolls was HUGE and fast.

I just had a weird thought, How long until Rocketbunny cuts one of these up and adds on massive fenders?

Unfortunately.... this will happen.

On the plus side though, since its going to be priced higher, builds might actually be well done.

And how quickly after they do will fiberglass Chinese knockoffs of the kit hit the market?

If anything like the 86/BRZ program it's probably done already as prominent aftermarket vendors in Japan usually get access to pre-production models from the factory just before launch.

Kinda like the R35, I have yet to see one done poorly. I'm seen mods I don't like or ones I found questionable. But the quality of work is always up to par
