New for 2019

The MC dealer in my area had a little demo setup at the Louisville boat show this year with the black Cool Touch next to some light gray non-cool stuff and a heat lamp and it was pretty telling!

Sorry if I overlooked this, but what is the "door" in the floor next to the driver? Is this an access panel or another in floor cooler???

You can see it on the Supra Site: "Integrated In-Floor Storage Locker - The new 2018 Supra® SL is the most cargo capable Supra ever. In addition to Surf Storage and loads of under seat cargo space, you also get this integrated in-floor storage locker"

They do not show it open, but I recall a pic floating around with the locker open.

They say it is insulated and can be used as cooler!

Or you can stuff the kids down there when the "time-out" arrives at that time of the day . . . .

That was the pic I noticed on Facebook.

They have a video on the Supra site under the SL build for 2018. About 55 seconds in the video they show it open.

I thought it was for storing shoes and had a trash can in there

All of these companies are going to this new vinyl for a reason. All of the products are doing roughly the same thing and they work. Its not hype, I have two boats with nearly identical base colors (Black) sitting in AZ 115 degree heat. The cool touch stuff is tolerable the other is 500 degrees Kelvin... No gimmick, NO BS. One is tolerable the other you can cook an egg on. This isnt brain surgery, the tech is real.

And no company in the history of marketing has ever exaggerated claims in order to sell a product. [emoji849]

No you missed it a little. The 10 degree diff is that being the new vinly in black vs old standard in natural and thats surface temp. What doesent get talked about is how rapidly it cools down rather then hold heat when you keep pressure on it. Black etc is still hot on the touch but where you would normally have to remove your hand, it instantly drops temp, and by a lot...
