Auto Spies: New Supra...

...ha! Because someone was bitching about Supra posts, I got this in my Auto Spies newsletter:

http://www.autospies.com/article/index.asp?articleId=3263&categoryId=1

What do you think? Looks like a Supra and not something fruity.

I saw that picture over a year ago, but nothing became of it. Toyota definitely is working on some performance cars, but none of them will be a Supra. That is for sure. Supra is gone forever. Toyota will be doing what BMW has done for years and built it's entire reputation around, which is manufacturing sport sedans and coupes.

ya i think this is a repost

w00t! I LOVE reposts :lol:

You know what? My gf's brother works for Toyota in japan, Im gonna tell her to ask him, since I dont speak Japanese well enough to ask him myself. lol

That just looks like a re-done version of the SC430. Same chassis I bet.

Give up, the Supra is gone:rolleyes:



*Decleration*
"Let it be heard, that any thread that mention the rebirth of the Supra be locked, and the poster be ban for 2 days from this forum"

We all miss Toyota's supercar:(

Not me.

Yeah, I'd like to miss the supercar too...

Too bad a new one is going to cost that of a house.

shit looks hot but yea i would say no less than 50,000 for the car if it comes out

$50,000 is a nice price for a car like that. Compared to other Sports models. The Z06, $60k. The Viper, $70k. Shit, that's a price of a normal Vette. And people buy those all the time.

Werd!

The rumors concerning that concept was that it was to compete with the 350z so pricing was going to be around the 30-40k range. That's not too bad at all. Of course who knows if it will ever come out.

I think Toyota will bring this one out to compete in a luxury sports coupe market. The feeling I get is that this new one won't be as good as the previous model Supra though. I bet it's going to be more a luxury coupe more than a sports car just like the 350Z. The 350Z doesn't feel the same as the previous 300ZX. It's more luxurious & less sporty.

if toyota bring out the Lexus 3500GT (supra replacement as rumored)..then that a big slap in teh face...one thing, US discontinued supra cus it was expensive..now to bring another MORE expensive car in the lexus badging is asking for trouble.

The Supra wasn't really a die hard sports car wither though. It was more of a GT car. Little too fat, not a real 2 seater, lots of luxury for the time, etc.

Why dont we make a special forum asking toyota to remake the supra and staying true to its roots as an all out power hungry sports car....we'll all sign it and send it to toyota.
Anyone watch the Shawshank Redemption..(I hope I spelt it right)
Remember that part where andy keeps writing congress for money for a library and they finally give it too him..we could do that!!
Bring back the SUPRA in all its greatness!!:thumbup:

We might be able to write them, but with a company as big as Toyota and the auto industry being what it is (secreative and all) - we would probably get little more than a responce that we wrote.

Is it me, or does it look similar to the Aston Martin's DB9 ????

whoa, that looks uber ugly. The profile looks sweet but the head lights and tail lights look like ass :thumbdown
