Toyota Supra News
 

I know part of this link (talking about the C6 Z06) is over in RC45's section...but what the hell...let's talk about the Supra. :D

Still pretty damn hard to tell wtf its going to look like...


I think they will do better if they badge it a Lexus (hopefully it would stay a hardcore sports-car even with the Lexus badge)...in terms of being able to get people to pay $100K...although it would be nice for it to have a Toyota badge.

Wow, V10s with 500hp are really all the rage now-a-days aren't they...;) I think they should go with a twin turbo 2UZFE...but that's just me. :P

That weight is, I think a bit...optimistic...haha :lol:

dude, this is a repost

i hope this car be a supra

Oh crap...delete this then TT...

Sorry guys.

Where is the original post then?

im quite sure i havent seen it yet...

looks dont seem to inspire to me a car worth 100,000.00 unless its in some denominations... passetas (spain) anybody? regardless, im sure japan is dying for a new supercar in the absence of the Skyline, and the dwindling NSX

According to the site carspyphotos, this is not the new Supra testing.

not sure if you're just being sarcastic. sarcasm doesn't flow well on the net

What, 500 ps for supra, brutal

Not at all.

I would not consider a Car Gallery post a valid discussion topic.. ;)

I thought that the japanese dont make cars with over 300hp? So why is this one gonna have 500? Im gonna be pretty skeptic for now.

Actually that so called 'gentlemens agreement' has been pretty much disbanned this last year, as the new skyline will be rated somewhere above 350 hp, the HSC was planned at around 400 and a few others all seem to be ignorning that rule for now. :D

this wont be the next supra, wrong price range, and wrong segment

this will be some kinda nsx competitor or supercar

how can there be a new skyline if the infiniti g35 is supposed to be it?

which was canned because Honda wanted to go green.
as long as supra looks like this, reminiscent of the 2000GT, i don't care.

And i don't think the above photo is that of the Supra. In fact, that doesn't look like a toyota at all...unless it's a false body...

Wunderbar!

the G35 is the skyline in japan, he was talking about the new GT-R

And Skyline GT-R wont be called the Skyline GT-R. It will be called GT-R

it's supposed to be 100k :shock:

the president of nissan in a press released stated the next gt-r would be here in 2007 (us) and that is would be competing performance wise with porsche 911 and that the pricing would be like that of an EVO8

so its only common logic that the next supra will be the same way
the car in the first of this post is not the next supra, its a nsx (hsc) competitor

toyota is a smart car company and they are playing it safe by keeping the next supra under wraps, i wouldnt be suprised if it is nothing like any of the currently circulating "spy" pics and artist conceptions

Check this out.

450 hp AWD sounds pretty nice to me :mrgreen: It also talks about it not using the 350z and G35 chassis's. That means its gunna be light. It says lotus is doing the suspension. That = :mrgreen: I have read in a few other mags that what they say about Cosworth doing the engine is true as well. That also = :mrgreen: . The two things Im not sure about is what engine will be used and the price. I had heard before that they will be using a destroked, high revving 3.2 liter version of the 350z power plant. But 350-380 was the claims, but 450 would be ok with me 8) As far as the price, I had heard $50,000 US would be appropriate (to put it in the same class as the S4, M3, Corvette, and such).
we will be getting it in the states. I dont know why this article is so unsure about it. I have been told we will get it for a long time now... :?

hi guys.. i was looking at getting as audi 14 but then i saw this supra parked next to it :( had to buy it. so i put my deposit down on 1. but as a new supra coming out .. DAME !

anyone will take the MKIV supra over the new one! if Toyota do sell it at $100,000 or higher i think they've to come up with something really really fast & reliable! it has to be competitive with the cars almost twice expensive to sell it at that price... i believe! cause most people will go.. yeah it goes fast & stuff... but its a toyota! :D i'm not one of them btw!

what the hell does the STI and Skyline have anything to do with the Supra?!!?
