Yah it's a Golf going backwards.
Honda NSX is just a Civic going backwards too.
LFA = Corolla backwards.
All supercars are just backwards regular car.

It’s good that you’re rich. Otherwise it’s such a waste of money… not as stupid as my Maserati as there is still some value, but still crazy.

I think he meant RWD but...yeah 
Given the trend, does this make Porsches supercars?
Ok, bye.

So i went car shopping today at Toyota. A couple of things i noticed.
1) its a hive of scum and villainy. Everyone is everywhere, nobody says hi, nobody gives a shit who you are, they can't even get a sales guy to come see you, it's that busy in there. I asked about the Sienna and they said i can go look at myself and left me to it. All the while, a fleet of these sales people went outside and looked at my ratrolla.... arent you guys supposed to be busy?
2) The interior quality of modern Toyota is dog shit. This ultra-expensive 73k sienna van with dick sucking feature has worse seats than a 20 year old nissan altima. The leather is rock hard, the cushion is about as thin as a camping sleeping pad, and the overall quality is disgusting. Touch this center console and you'll recoil in horror at the level of plastics used in this car. How can a 73k car be this bad?! and they cant even keep them in stock. The sales manager guy said its still 1-2 year wait to get a mini van. Just looking at this space, im pretty sure the NVH will drive me insane. It'll echo and jitter down the road with a whole bunch of trashy plebian noises.
3) Crown Signia is quite small. Much smaller than a regular RX, much lower and basically took over the venza lineup in size and dimensions. Not a bad car, but that interior is still cheap feeling/looking for a car thats 70k. Head room is a bit limited for me, but easy car to daily.      
My sienna dreams are dead. Unacceptable trash given the price point. I guess ill have to wait for my royal lounge JDM or lexus LM.
Edit: oh and another thing that bothered me. I went to ask toyota service department how much it'll cost to do 6 plugs on my 2010 lexus ES. That bitch told me she cant service Lexus vehicles, ill have to take it to lexus. I said its the same bloody engine, same parts, same configuration, that makes no fucking sense. She said they arent allowed to take lexus vehicles if there is a lexus dealership in the automall. Ill have to bring it there. Then i asked her how much it is for the plug service if it was a Camry. she said 460 dollars..... okay so lexus wants 1300 for the same service, you guys only charge 460 dollars and you wont take my fucking money!?!?!?! She said if they did the service, they would have to charge me the exact same rates as lexus and not toyota rates. I told her im going to give her a shitty review and write something to toyota corporate for this bullshit. 
Hannah Zaharik
youre going down you cunt, i aint going to listen to your bullshit.

Keep in mind you are tall, not just for Asian standards, but even for everyone standards. You'd have a hard time in the front passenger seat of the M3.
The Sienna is made to be utilitarian first, rugged second, and luxury goes way down in the order. If you sat in the 2000's Toyota you'd have an aneurysm. My 2003 Highlander was hard plastic all the things. The seats though, that I'm not sure. My brother hates Audi seats and says their Lexus and Highlander are great.
The Crown has a low roof line, it's made to look sleek first. It's also I believe a Japan product first, but they just decided to sell it in the RoW.

The Crown Signia even has your name on it!
I guess I am the opposite. I love the interior of modern Toyotas. They are superb and perfect in every way possible. Continuous improvement at its finest.
Also, poor Hannah. Imagine she finds this thread.

Try again but with your Kirkland clothes. Maybe you looked too poor.
Toyota's sell themselves and people line up years to be able to buy them, so why they gotta kiss your hands and shoes when you're just browsing.
The refusing to work on your Lexus in a toyota dealership just sounds like politics and the chick is just doing as she is told by the higher ups
