I was just wondering if anyone had seen the newest supra rendition in the new road and track. I like the way it looks, and they seem to think toyota is aiming for 2008. Thoughts?

i saw it in road and track... and it looks nice - and looks to be that it's gonna be priced near affordable. I just dont like the v6 idea - the supra was all about an inline 6, and not putting an I-6 in this new car is just gonna be ludacris
 .... i want the I-6 stock twin or single turbo set-up.... no all motor v6 - ridiculous

Those pictures have been around for more than a year. From what I heard.. The "Supra" or Toyota's supercar would be put in the Lexus line up. I wouldnt mind seeing a V6 in a "supercar" maybe.. they can detune the 2GRFE some and throw a supercharger hahaha
1GZFE anyone? (V12 in a Toyota Crown) |

Personally, i think they have ruined it. The body style of the last gen was absolutely imaculate. Perfect in every perspective.

those def aren't the pics in the new r&t, there is only one pic in the mag and it's of a red one that looks hellas better then those pics. Anyway, I agree with the neccessity of a I-6 but I still think I'll try to buy one. I always had the idea that they should just re-release the old supra with some technology upgrades, they could still sell it for just under 30k and be priced about the same as the used supras. I know that sounds crazy, but I agree with the thought that the last supra was immaculate.

If they release anything close to a Supra, the most informed prediction I've heard is this.

i don't mind that look.. the rear looks good as it is, but the front? hmmm... perhaps the front bumper could use a little remodeling but doesn't look too too bad..
however, we definitely need more pics before i can give my full opinion. -------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

the first pictures are wayyyy old! 2-5 yrs old! the most recent one is the red one...it looks nice but the rear resembles the s2k...but i read this thing goes 0-60 in 4 secs...not bad for v6..also they should include a twin turbo or something...keep the tradition of turbo alive!!!!!!!!

guys I also agree with you when you say the 93-98 supra looks way better than this one, but the way I look at it is this, at least now we'll have a toyota sport car instead of the Matrix or the corolla S ( not sport by any meaning ) so I looking forward to get this car once is release. and if we can get 350 HP from factory N/A engine think about how far can you go if you slap a turob to this engine. I mean ofr a street car I wouldn't like to have more than 500 HP even if it's RWD.
just my opinion --------------------  |
