looks like a fucked up lambo. I really hope it doesn't look like that

 

I personally like it...it looks like it came out of a Sci-fi movie. The frontend looks quite nice, but the back needs a little work.

 

It won't look like that. Check out some of the MK forums and read their thoughts. We will see when we see.

 

Yeah I have to look up the new pics...you're right Midnite. I did actually remember they had an updated pic.

 

do you know what would be awsome? if they brought back the 93-98 body style :agreed: and sell for 30k or less

 

The whole reason Toyota is reintroducing the Supra is to compete with Nissan's 350Z and Mazda's RX8. Both sell between 30K and 40K. And come with substantial power from the factory.

The MK4s were nice looking, but it might look somewhat dated by today's standard.

 

And I think I read that Toyota is doing away with the Celica and MR2. If that is true they will need another sports car.

Yeah there was a post a while back about that. They're getting rid of the MR2 and the Celica because it will take sales away from Scion.

 

It looks like a retarded DeLorean fucked a Celica.

 

I repeat it will not look like that.

 

This is what I believe it will look like.

That is what I saw also. Pretty fucking sweet.

Indeed. If it looks like that, will give great competition again to the RX8 and 350.

I would think about buying those :fever: .

 

The bottom version looks very close to an Aston Martin.

A good thing.

 

A couple of things:

1) With a carbon fiber body and chassis, there's no way the production car will cost under $200k. We're talking the composition of the Lamborghini Murcielago, McLaren F1, Porsche Carrera GT, Pagani Zonda and the Koenigsegg CC. If Toyota somehow releases it at the same price as the old Supra ($50k) with that kind of technology, I'll eat my hat. With fresh-ground pepper and a pinch of salt.

2) Flat floor, huh? If so, it looks like the car is a mid-engined design (No driveshaft running through the center of the car from a front engine to the rear wheels) with a sequential-shift manual transmission (No shift linkage running down the middle of the car from the transmission to the cabin). That makes sense... Toyota introduced the first and only affordable SMG transmission in production with the MR2 Spyder. I'm honestly surprised that the technology hasn't filtered into Toyota's other cars if they were able to incorporate SMG in a $25k-ish vehicle.

 

I like this one also, bring it on Toyota. Cars are going to be so awesome the next five years :twothumb: .

 

look at the window line and the overall size...that is photoshopped Celica.

I hope the next Supra isn't the Volta, that car is hideous.

 

New Toyota?

Toyota has been eyeing Nissan's success with the revived 350Z - and apparently, from spy pictures nabbed this week, it's been a little jealous of supercars like the Porsche Carrera GT, too. Toyota 's been caught testing what some insiders are calling the "TXS," a limited-production exotic that might be powered by a V-10 engine worth 500 hp.

Pictures show the TXS with enough cladding to disguise much of its shape, but clearly, this is no Celica or MR2-sized sportscar. Insiders suggest the car will tip in at less than 3000 pounds, giving its 500-hp powerplant (with 370 lb-ft of torque) a serious chance at catching the likes of the Porsche and Benz supercars. Top speed could reach 190 mph, the same league as the 550-hp Ford GT. Whether the drivetrain offers any version of Toyota 's hybrid technology is unknown.

Whether the final vehicle is sold as a Lexus or as a Toyota , it's likely that a limited production run of about 10,000 units is in order. Expect a debut at the 2005 Tokyo Motor Show and an on-sale date soon after - with a price tag well over $100,000.

oh well.. :dunno: did a quick search and didn't see much... no harm in new pics though

 

looks nice from what I can tell.

 

I hope they ressurect Supra

Oh, they will. They won't just stand by and let Nissan/Mazda make money in the 28-35k range. Then the Tc will be the low end, that will be the mid car, and the pics above will be their exotic :twothumb: .

 

Yes, except the Supra is a $55k car, not $30k. Unless they water it down, drop turbocharging and cut some corners to mass produce the vehicle, a midlevel sports car from Toyota won't be the "Supra."
