Some lady said my car was too loud.
I had the ecutek settings at stock but I’m catless with a Tomei.
so I graced her with turning my settings up to the max and giving a little rev of gunshots ?

Had a girl at the drive-thru say, wow thats pretty small but looks good. Pretty sure she was talking about my car.....

At least it’s well proportioned and symmetrical? ?

LOL I've got a GOOD one...

I went to look at a g87 m2 yesterday and the sales women from my local BMW dealer asked what car I was currently driving our conversation following was

me-"oh a Toyota supra!"

sales-"you should trade that in I think you would like a BMW better"

me-"I already have one?"

sales-"no you don't you said it was a Toyota"

me-" *visible confusion* its made by bmw..."

sales- "oh... well, its not like this... *points to the touchscreen* this is pure M performance"

me- "okay have a nice day thanks anyway"??

1. Someone screamed “IS THAT A SUPRA” while driving next to me.
2. A very nice elderly gentleman asked me if I liked the car and then proceeded to tell me that he was thinking about buying one for his elderly wife.
3. A 10yr kid and his friend freaked out when I pulled up but then told me that I should have gotten the MK4 instead
4. Someone told me at a Shell “nice interior, is that a scion?”

I’m sure there’s more in forgetting

At ten years old, I didn't know what a tail pipe was much less an MK4. He's going places (maybe in a MK4).

I got A Lot of bitterness from older generation, mk3 owners the most I'd say. It's really just sad tbh

But I did get one old bitter man to tell me "it's a great sports car"

no I didn't bother it was 96k (Canadian) before tax and i thought it was even uglier in person than the photos made it seem...

Disgusting mark up.

Better off buying a m3-m4 xdrive a couple years old with low miles for that price.

The only “negative” talk I get for my car is the BMW talk. One guy came up to the greeter desk where I worked and saw my wallpaper and was like “nice but it’s just a BMW”. I said yeah & a Toyota. I love it. The interior is much better for it as well. Then he kept with the well it’s just a BMW.
I politely asked “oh, so what car you drive?”
He said “oh, I’m not saying I wouldn’t drive a Supra.”
My response “yeah, I thought so.”

95% of the comments are love. The hate seems to come from people who can’t afford a sports car or their spouses won’t let them.

I had a DMV employee guy (asian dude) taking jabs at me while he was inspecting my car in order to register it. "I can't believe the fake vents. They aren't even functional. What was Toyota thinking partnering up with BMW". He quickly stopped when he noticed he was crossing the line. Totally uncalled for. This is the reason I don't go to cars and coffee or car meets. My car is a build for myself so I can enjoy myself. Too much ignorance. I had a millennial kid stop me outside a grocery store as he walked to his 4runner asking me about my cu later gray color and being a sick car. Also caught a kid taking pictures as it was parked outside my barber's shop. All kinds of stories

I found these and you can even pick your Supra color on the shirt:

I absolutely love getting that statement at the track . What a shocker these cars are! Every magazine or YouTuber should spend an entire day at a HPDE driving event. I think their articles and impression would be quite different.
