I'm also in Marketing and I agree. I think this is a short-term view and responding to fads. Iconic brands do not change with the wind. You don't have to be a marketer to point out examples. Supra has "missed the boat" on this one, but it kinda goes with where the company is right now. They just don't feel that stable right now. One of the most important things to get right today is a web site. Their web site barely works. To be generous, I think about 50% of the stuff I try to view actually works. Come on. If you can't get a web site to work, am I really going to pay you $85k for a boat? I have to go to their Facebook site to actually see pictures of the boats. It's sad, but consistent with their branding decisions.
Like others have said, I'm loyal to the older Supra boats, but when I purchase something newer I'll be open to considering other brands.
