there are rumors going around that Toyota is redesigning the Supra for release in late '07/early '08.
with two trim levels, the I6 convertable, and the V8 hatch. The V8 is supposedly going to push out ~450BHP. anyone else hear about this??

There will be no new supra, the supra name is dead. This new car is nicknamed "Son of Supra". Rumored to be a v6 and v8 model, no I6. If speculations are correct, look for the FT-HS concept. Toyota will not just sit around while Nissan goes worldwide with their new Skyline. Toyota even said themselves that they want to fill the empty space in their lineup with a real sports car. Stay tune.....

It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |

that car design looks retarted simple as that. way to boxy.. to me looks much more like.. a show car than a daily driving sports car..
