Located a simply plug and play external CD Player by plugging into the cars usb port. Thus allowing one to play CD's when a car like the Supra doesn't offer such. I know many manufacturers are phasing out CD players.

I would invest in a $50 digital paint gauge and check each panel for a reading. eBay is a good source. Most unpainted panel readings are between 4-6 mills...
Perhaps a better photo standing back would aid in the area of concern?
It could have also been repainted poorly at port or the dealer before delivery with light transit damage. I passed on a new Supra on the showroom floor with 7 miles on it. Sadly it happens... I always use a digital paint...
To me... it looks like someone opened the door on to the top of a curb edge or brick/stucco wall and scraped the door edge. Easy to do and one might not even realize it happened. Touch it up and move on. Not a paint defect.

Trying to remove tar with steel wool... j/k ?
In all seriousness... I owned an auto detailing business for 15 years... just when you think you have it mastered... new tricks and products come about. Love to learn.
My personal pet peeve... those who keep the paint looking great but overlook the...
I have a couple options... but the GTI is my primary daily and dedicated winter car.
The Supra remains special and is driven in the perfect weather scenario. Keeping it fresh and exciting to drive.

I'm think this may be a 'doomsday sign' of the future for a street car with rice tow hooks.
