I'm not trying to hate, but as a serious MKIV Supra fan, the new Supra just doesn't stack up. And they are well aware of it too. As the consumers that we are, however, we have no choice but to take the spoon that feeds the mouth.
The new Supra is also roughly half the price of the MKIV Supra for its era, which could attest to the higher sales figures. The MKIV Supra if priced today would be closer to the cost of the GTR.
The front end of the MKV Supra is fine, it's actually grown on me to a point where I can say that I like it.
The rest of the car, however, as you can also see in this picture, looks like they took a serious design and then compressed it where now it doesn't look far off from a cartoon version...
Unfortunately, the C8 doesn't escape the ugly stick either. Ever since the C7, they just started getting taller for some reason...like they're trying to compete with SUV's too or something ?
