That's a good result! I'd ask to keep the red badge as they're pretty sought after in other markets.

Also, was there a dollar figure next to the "Exterior Emblem" option? Maybe it was just a reference to the 45th side sticker? ?‍♂
Yes, the amount shown is $139.00. I was thinking the same thing about keeping the red badge, especially if they were going to discard it.

That looks like a slightly overpriced red Supra badge.. Factory mistake my ass!
According to the Customer Relations Manager, "Optional equipment is installed at the port."
They consider the Supra badge to be optional? Hmmmmmm

It honestly doesn’t look bad at all and the fact it makes your car even more unique i wouldnt do all this
Yes, but it can also be compared to "debadging" in that anyone who doesn't know Supras will not be able to verify what it is - in this case, unless they ride my bumper. That's a bit disconcerting. :oops:
But hey, maybe they'll let me keep the red one as a spare.

By the way, the photo of your Supra looks like it is Mikan Blast orange.

Yes this photo is from an event showcasing the 2024 models, which i believe was from the middle east where one of the forum member who attended took photos of the event. Apparently they are selling this kind of color normally without any “special edition” add ons over there. Love the color wish they would’ve released it without a “special edition” here to replace nitro yellow :(

I guess there's always a wrap option after the sale. I do like the nitro yellow as well. Now if only they had some kind of lime green, they'd have three citrus colors. ;)

Last Saturday, a friend and I were waiting in the airport parking garage for a Turo rental (Ferrari 458 Italia) owner to drop off the car. I wanted to park temporarily in an area with lots of space around it, so I parked here. The 458 owner never showed up, but I enjoyed passerbys gawking at my car.

I think you all are getting too wrapped up in a 'mistake'. This badge is a legimate add-on as well as the carbon fiber mirror caps If these are listed as options on the sticker. The dealer ordered these options which were replaced at the port; perhaps they did not know what these are for the 45th Anniversary. Me personally, I would get the black emblem and get black mirror caps as this is 'stock' for this model.

Like the previous posters commented, just ask the dealer for a black emblem if this is what you want. These emblems can be ordered via the Toyota parts department in black or red.

So it is possible for Toyota to send out Supras with no Supra emblem in the back? Does anyone else have a window sticker that does not list "Exterior Emblem (3I) as "optional equipment"? If the description is there, but the "3I" is not, please let me know. Here's what my list looks like:
