Default New Toyota Supra?!






Picture 1, beside the word 'New' in english:
'New Supra Prototype Secret Document--3 Million Yen and 350HP!'
3 million Yen is about $25,500 US.

Below the car: 'This is the base model horsepower'

Picture 2:
I can't figure out what measurement is 1850mm.
Next measurement is (probably) Track: 1300mm/52".
Wheelbase: 2600mm/104"
Weight: 1400kg/3080lbs.

Main Text: '5L V8 model with 430-450hp! (Coupe version)'

Red sidebar: 'Closeup!'

Picture 3: 'V8 and V6 engine types'. The V8 is 430-450hp 5L, and the V6 is a 330-350hp 3.5L.

Picture 4: 'Base model V6 coupe for 3 Million Yen?!'

I quite like it too, I can see where they got their design cues from (everyone else basically)

Maybe it's just me but I can see G35 in the rear side window, Ferrari 550 or Aston in the front, and that's just at a glance...

Still, no worse than the Mk2 MR2, blatant Ferrari design theme there, but still a great car.

Very much doubt we'll see it for $25,000 - that's Celica prices!

Argh! I can't see the pictures! In Australia, the Supra is only popular with gangster wannabes (or maybe they really are gangsters). I don't think it's going to sell well here.

Ah, I can see it now. Looks vaguely similar to the Lexus coupe. Probably same chassis.
