Is that a supra?

Man I'm tired of that question. It seems like everywhere I go someone asks me if it's the new supra. The GT86 badge wouldn't help since you can't really read it. I guess I need plates that say "NOSUPRA"

Why not just play along?

"Yerp, it's the new twin turbo v12 concept car. Toyota is letting me do the r&d for the interior and exterior fit and finish. So far I'm happy with it. They do need to do something about the microwave though. It really makes some noise when your going 120 mph."

Why would you expect anyone to know what the car is? It IS a pretty obscure low volume product.

LOL. Someone asked me if it was a Supra a few weeks ago. I've had a lot of people look but only two random people ask questions since I bought it in September.

Some people are clueless lol.. was at a gas station and guy had to look at the scion emblem and saw I have no plates..he was like is that the new scion ? While looking at the emblem. .and I dont have my frs emblem on it anymore..

Yeah sometimes I get tried of questions and I just go along with them..but when a person that knows about the car we have a nice little chit chat:happy0180: this car turns necks everywhere I drive..

Also posted a pic on a forum and some tot it was a 370Z well in a way in a quick look it does

Drives me when other people I'm with answer the question for me, because they think they know it all, and say yes and are serious!
