Honestly, I’m sick of people talking up cars just because of brand clout or internet trends instead of looking at the actual car. I expected to be irritated by all the purist crying over the Toyota Supra, but to be completely real with you, most of the hot takes out there on this car are absolute trash. And here's why. The Broken Legacy Nobody Talks About To kick things off, if you ask any internet "car guy," they'll tell you the Supra is this sacred lineage of design. But you have to be literally BLIND to look at the history of this car and think Toyota had a consistent vision. The Mark 1, Mark 2, and Mark 3 were completely logical. They were classic 80s wedge GTs with sharp creases, clean horizontal lines, long hoods, and pop-up headlights. You could look at an A70 and clearly see where it came from. But then 1993 rolled around and Toyota dropped the A80 (Mk4), and the visual continuity evaporated into thin air. The A80 abandoned every single design cue of the A70...
So, as most of you know, the world of cars is getting less and less exciting... I used to binge-watch events like Geneva Motor Show and Goodwood Festival of Speed, getting more and more interested each time a new supercar would come out. But these days, it is getting more and more tiring seeing the push towards EV's and huge SUV's as we move to a world that really isn't about driving, and more about brand hierarchy. So when this year's Monterey Car Week rolled around, I was half expecting to be totally disappointed by what was going to be unveiled. And to be completely honest, a huge chunk of it turned out to be absolute trash. The Trash in Question To kick things off from the absolute WORST of the unveils to the absolute PEAK, we have to start with the Singer X Louis Vuitton 911 collaboration pair. I still have no idea who this tailors to, as you have to be literally BLIND to appreciate the cars. One of them is this gaudy cream and wooden 911 that looked like LV's...
