To M2 or not to M2

Love the supra, but the C8 is easily better looking

i would respectfully disagree, the c8 looks like it wanted to transform into the huracan, but got lost somewhere halfway. There’s some serious weird design choices on the c8, including the really hard blocky lines.

I love the front, the front/side view with the big vent, and the full side view.

The rear is just lost on me though, its like they gave up - just looks pedestrian.

Maybe if they would have gotten rid of the vents behind the tail lights, and brought the painted bumper down more and then a full center mounted exhaust? Or have the sheetmetal in the rear not come "down" after the rear glass?

Drove by this exact car yesterday on my way home, and imho, it’s got tons of presence. It may not be the prettiest but i don’t think it’s ugly. I quite like it. Granted, this one’s been done up a bit, and I’m also in the camp that doesn’t think the current g8x m3/4 is bad looking either. That being said, I believe the f87 was a looker for sure, with the f82 LCI being my favorite looking M car.

All that to say, we can’t really hate on the M2, seeing as we all drive Toyota’s hand me down M2. New one is different looking but obviously extremely capable, with a manual on offer. Sounds like a winner to me.

I have to say, lowering it made the side skirts look even more like the stay puff marshmallow man. Kind of surprising actually. Usually cars look better when you lower them.

it's not that the C8 is ugly, but it's such a snoozefest of a car. the demographic of 65yos driving them is appropriate

Blame the demographic of owners, then, not the car itself.

Have you driven one? It's a laugh riot.

So, you guys don't like the utility truck look? ??

it’s not a bad looking car by any means, but the front end looks too high, like the headlights belong on a blazer lol, dont get me started on the rear?

M2 is going to look good with big aero.

Widebody + big aero and it will really look insane.

Could use a few more color options though.

Even though I can’t find an online link to it, the magazine version of consumer reports list the Supra as the bargain winner vs. the C8 in this month issue. Both are listed as their sports car choice. I was kinda shocked they did enough research to discover what we already know. My wife likes comparing detergents (being sarcastic) and that’s probably why I still have a subscription (+ a killer TV comparison guide for me). But gotta admit, I was impressed with their findings ?

It’s amazing what a lowered suspension and wheels can do to a car…

I wanted one but I didn’t meet the specified requirements for ownership:

No, because it's not on fire.

i have, probably more times than you think. twice this month. it's a nope. that's probably the only corvette i'll ever say that about, though

Those are scary-close to my Adidas Stan Smith's Good thing I have black suede Piloti's for drivin' & stylin'

c8 messed up the rear.

Where as the Supra, everything meshes in well quite well /bias

Although if this form of Supra did unveil itself..
