The first thing to cross my mind after reading this article was this sound effect.

Any car goes super sideways with Chris Harris at the wheel. That man gives no fucks about tires. Negative fucks. Actually if you could turn a fuck inside out, that’s what Harris would give about tires.

Except it’s not really Toyota dragging it out. Hardly any of the Supra articles are related to official teasers or press releases from the company, it’s every auto news site posting a new article any time a rumor surfaces on the internet (often seemingly regardless of the sources validity), spy shots are taken, or…

“After thorough analysis from accounting concluding we will not lose one goddamn cent by doing this, we have decided in this isolated situation to do what our paying customers want, but don’t get used to it.”

This is what a passive aggressive PR statement looks like.

The whole burnout u-turn preceding that on a public road without taking the time to make sure there was no one coming makes him a douchebag.

I you can’t see shit then maybe you shouldn’t be mashing the throttle and doing a u turn blindly across the road.

Last week it was “we will not offer this because a manual transmission does not exist that can handle the power/torque while offering smooth shifts”

Well that’s the whole point. It’s been discussed in many places that the Giulia in general is a decent enough car that is pretty reliable. However, the Quad versions have had massive numbers of issues. They’ve sold at very low quantities and have had a shocking number of them with service issues whereas the non-quads…

I think windshields in general are getting way more pricey due to the active safety sensors for cruise-control and auto-stop, etc.  I think there was a recent article about this.

Well the article seems to use a broken windscreen and a damaged tyre to emphasise its case. That, to me, says more about either their driving style, or the quality of the tyres than it does about the car, though. 

“And that’s not all! The magazine also reported it had to replace the front-right tire on the car after a bubble popped up in the sidewall, at a cost of $275. A rock also cracked the windshield, which was further $1,209 repair, and the diff replacement was ultimately only $169 for the regular service, since it was…

My old roomie bought a Giulia over a year ago (not the Quad) and tells me it’s been a good car.

A Ferrari-engined Italian car that gets passed back and forth between car reviewers has had some trouble?

You must be new here.

Yeah, lets make an enthusiast oriented 2 seater without world-beating speed, but we won’t offer a manual.   Just terrible.

It does say manual transmission, so I think your digital download hypothesis is correct.

Nobody reads them, anyway. It’ll probably just be a CD or a digital download. And we will have been double-trolled.
