Default Does the RC-F remind you of the Supra?

First, let me begin by saying the MKIV Supra was my dream car when I was in college, even way before Fast and Furious. I had a single turbo MKIII Supra but its nothing compared to its lighter and twin-turboed piece of automotive greatness brother. Now that I can afford a Supra, many greater cars have come along and engineering has improved, such as the BMW 335xi, BMW M3, and now the RC-F. I still yearn to have a car that feels and looks like the Supra, with a legendary reliable engine that you can abuse and abuse for days. It's perfect that the RC-F from a profile view reminds me so much of my beloved Supra. Do you feel the same?

Imagine getting the solar flare and putting this baby on...

Not at all. The FT-1 does though.

No, but Obsidian ones at certain angles remind me of a Maserati GranTurismo

Hate to say it but a lot of the styling cues reminds me of the seventh gen Toyota Celica. From the nose to the crease along the side.

All Japanese sports cars look similar to me. So do all German sports cars. The devil is in the details.

No resemblance at all. Just like the IS-F is no resemblance at all.
