Looks are subjective. I didn't the MK5 in photos. Now I have one in my garage. No regrets.

This one might be legit. Moto Miwa has also reportedly said this as well. You might remember the name, as he was heavily connected to the original twins' promotion and development followed by the Mkv Supra's.


The real question is if Toyota finally got BMW onboard with putting the amazing tt S58 for the refresh/GRMN model.

Operative word there is "reportedly". There have loads of quotes attributed to senior people that either just were not true or incredibly twisted.
I will believe it when it doesn't come from a clickbait.
