Jeez, stop arguing both of you. So petty. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion...
No problem with voicing ones opinion when it includes a respectful response from a level-headed adult that doesn't resort to personal attacks.

You just don't know when to stop do you.. smh.
Touché. You’re the one who started the personal jabs. I’m ending it.

@kona61 its extremely ironic that he says that because he was the one who started the personal attacks LOL. I’m done with this conversation.

Well the car has had a pretty rough launch and initial public reaction imo. Public sentiment might turn around after a year or so if they keep being sema and tuner feature car darlings, plus the aftermarket continues to support them well.

Offering a manual certainly wouldn't hurt!!! Literally every review and person on the internet complains about it. They can't make the BMW part go away, but they can make it manual.

The launch definitely could have gone better, especially the unfortunate timing of the c8 reveal. But he fails to address that dealers still think these cars are gold and making them tough to get into for buyers with the hype dying down by the time dealers let off on pricing. He goes on to say that Toyota should cancel production as if Toyota should admit defeat after 6 months.

Yup. He also brings up the sales of the mk4, like what happened 20 years ago has anything to do with what's happening today. And he neglects the benefit to the brand a higher end sports car brings and that it doesn't necessarily have to sell a lot to have the effect Toyota was looking for. Never mind the car is severely production limited. If sales doubled, they probably wouldn't be able to keep up.

Also, its freaking middle of winter.
