Whats up with every review on this car just going on and on about the vents?

So one thing I have never understood is when reviewers just harp and harp about "fake" vents. I mean if this is the extent of their expert opinion. There are plenty of other things to talk about. Its like 1 or 2 reviewers said it and then everyone else has to be me too me too, see I'm a car person I can talk crap about vents. Think for a second and take all the "fake" vents off the supra the car would look like a plastic blob. The vents give the car character and break up the lines and give contrast. The car would actually look like crap with out them.

As for functional. Eh what ever they are not needed and to make them functional would have raised the price of the car more. I mean if you cant find anything else to bitch about I guess then you have to pick on the vents. but review after review its just the vents the vents. we get jesus... you gotta say something about the vents to keep your street cred I guess. And its not even real outrage you can tell they are just bringing it up to bring it up.

I love the car, fake vents and all. MY you tube review would be its awesome enough said go buy one LOL

My take on it - If reviewers can only take a dig at small cosmetic choices and the wind buffeting issue, what does that say about the car as a whole?

It's easy to criticize the vents b/c they're obvious. Gotta get those clicks, so you have to say something negative to stir it up.

PS - I'm not getting into that guy talking about bump-steer. He's obviously biased a certain way and I don't think he speaks for the majority of people who own this vehicle.

Have ya seen the guy who every other word all he says is BMW. This is BMW that is BMW... for 7 mins all he says is BMW. Like it is some sort of slam on the car. I don't get how comparing a supra to a car that cost 20k more and the supra actually handles better is any sorta negative. and he too goes on about the vents. LOL

With all the online whining I could see Toyota just doing away with the fake vents on the bumpers when it comes time for the facelift.

Please excuse the 10 min quickie on MS Paint, but you guys get the idea with the vents becoming apart of the body cease and the door now being one piece.

The doors look a lot nicer without the lines.

What do you guys think about the CF door piece?

I like the door and don't mind the rear, but the front bumper and hood looks a little bland now. :/

I'm not sure how functional this is, but it looks pretty cool.

 

[gymratter]

this kit deletes most of the vents but that nose...

Only $129 not bad but they're already sold out.
