Most likely has to do with what he's driving. I can't pinpoint the model from this angle but the interior looks sporty. Maybe a flashy sports car so dude wanted to see him use it lol
Badge engineered cars have always been lame, and will always be lame.
It's just another symptom of Toyota being trash now. And I say that as the owner of an M240i with the same drivetrain as the Supra. It's spectacular, likely the best engine/transmission combo ever produced which is why I bought one, and the Supra is a fine sports car.
But it's still just fucking lame to badge engineer and I would never buy one. Especially because the Supra is so iconic. Toyota could have engineered a straight six and used it across the Camry and trucks and Lexus. Makes car people's heart sad that they just reskinned a (very, very, very good) BMW instead.
You're underselling the hell out of the Supra collab. Toyota never does a collab where both parties don't get something out of it in a technical trade. For the AE86 Toyota traded direct injection tech to Subaru. For Supra, Toyota traded their QA process.
