You know i love the yellow one but got any more pics of the orange one next to it? The mint green one is pretty slick too.

Just get it painted pearl yellow, why the need for a pole for factory. Then you would have all kinds of people in your color. Just be different.

Just my 2 cents, nothing on you though

Plus the Supra will be $60k+, not really affordable to everyone
lol! infiniti is like lexus is to toyota/scion. A luxury brand.. smh

Toyota in the USA is not making sports cars at the moment and probably WOULD badge the new "supra" as a scion something or other.

Look at the entire toyota car lineup here in the US and you can see why they wouldn't add a 30k sports car, let alone a 50k-60k sports car to their lineup. It doesn't fit the current marketing they have going. Toyota in US as far as cars are concerned is going for the eco minded 30-50 year old crowd.

and even if toyota DID decide to make it a scion and renamed it the scion schit-zu, I really doubt anyone would NOT buy it just because of a logo and name.

Taillights should be tinted black, not painted yellow. Yellow + Red looks like mustard and ketchup

Loving it, thanks for the photos.

Personal opinion, I think the stripe isn't wide enough. It should broaden out to fill the channel on the roof and continue broading down the trunk and running off the spoiler.

I'm starting to sound like a broken record with that stripe thing. I see it in my future...

NO aftermarket paintjob is as good as OEM. I'm sorry. Aftermarket paint done right is expensive enough... but I have yet to see a paint job that was 100% done right. I've seen close, but still not like factory paint.
