SUPRA BAD RARGH

I feel like people forget the whole “high end technical marvel” that these vehicles stand for means that, back in the day when automatics were garbage, it made sense for a sports car to have a manual. Now automatics are better than manuals (and people don’t buy manuals, as much as they say they will), so yeah, it makes sense for a sports car to come with an auto and let the automaker save on R&D for something people won’t buy.
But also, car enthusiasts are insufferable when it comes to new cars. Myself included.

Even after it’s apparently going to be pretty cheap by Supra standards.

I’ m really only in the not a real T oyota camp and only because, well, its not. It’ s like a Bento box of Leberkäse and Schnitzel.

I’m pretty sure the MkIV Supra was basically free ($1,500 MSRP) and had 1,000 HP from the factory and weighed 2,300 lb . Manual only, too.

Team “it’s ugly”. Also, I don’t like the new z4 and the original Supra didn’t do anything for me either.

To be honest I learned about the legend of the Supra only after like the 2nd F&F movie came out. I have no emotional connection to that one, or this new one for that matter.

The first two generations of Supra were cool. After the split from the Celica, they became overpriced pigs. There, I said it.

And now I am craving Sushischnitzel even though that food neither exists in reality or as little more than a vague concept attached to a fun word.
But this car is sushischnitzel. Whether that’s good or bad is up to the person eating it.
....Holy fuck I want both japanese and german food tonight.
Also, this is me right now:

That "myself included" makes it right there lmao. You basically summed me and I'm pretty sure a few others opinions on the new Supra up

Haha. M an, 2Fast is my favorite! I appreciate the Supra. Like a lot of other cars that I don’t like, I understand and am down with the part they play in the big picture.

I envy the people who can look past a car’ s looks in the name of driving because I love to drive. However I must have pretty cars, I have to at least want to look at it before I get behind the wheel.

My only complaint is it doesn't have a big hoop wing on it. I'm guessing they're saving that for the GRMN version.

For me, huge part of old Supra was Japanese reliability. Not it’s a German car from a company known to use plastic gears in important engine parts. And I really, really care about the no manual part.
So, my excitement level about the new Supra is about 5 out of 100.
