something along those lines mabye, not a supra
they aint never coming back

Well, that link claims they are announcing it at the Tokyo auto show in October, so we shall soon find out.
I just hope that if Toyota does use the name, "Supra" that it lives up to the reputation that name has. I would hate for Toyota to go the route of GM. Ford and Dodge and ruin the great names of the old days by putting them on 4-door sedans (Charger, Impala, Malibu, Thunderbird, Cougar, ect).

they wont, there have been tons of threads on this topic. What we will see is a toned down LFA i think. they need something to fill the mr2 void

Tons of threads with people who have no inside information as to weather or not they will bring back the Supra.

We have numerous acounts of semi-credible sources such as this article from Edmunds that says it will be back. On the flipside we have i think SmokingTiresV6 who swears that it will never be back.

Cap'nThe Thunderbird and Cougar have never been 4-door sedans (except a short run in the late 60s for the T-bird). Impala was always GM's large, mainstream car, so the name is fitting. And yes, it came in sedan models in the 60s. Same with the Malibu. The only one I don't agree with is the Charger, because like you said, the car was always a two-door sport coupe and it would be the equivalent of Ford making a 4-door Mustang. But, despite the two extra doors, the Charger is a quick and exciting package for the price.

Toyota said the Supra would eventually return, and there is rumors about it everywhere. The return of the X platform.:clap:

same old news ....
until i hear something from toyota, then ill continue to ignore such rumors:thumbdown

it's not coming back...


GET THE FUCK OVER IT..

^Says who, a couple of guys on a Toyota Forum? :hammer: :lol:

I hope they bring back a totally modern AE86 :lol: instead

Like I said, we'll find out in October.

OMG - Here we go again with another Supra thread. :lol: :ugh3:

Actually, the Cougar did come in a 4-door sedan, once during the late-70s and a smaller version in the early-80s.

Blah! :locked:

They should bring the Chaser over here. I love that thing! The Supra shouldn't come back. The name means shit, it's the car. Call it a Fronkey Shlonkey, it still hauls ass. So, fuck the name and let the legacy of Supra remain. Start over with something new. They should bring the damn Caldina... ohhhh, so nice;) They should also get that LF-A concept's engine into a nice little Corolla XXRS or something;)

Until they actually have the cahones release a photo... I wouldn't give any credit to rumor, even if it is from Edmunds...

I hope they bring back a totally modern AE86 :lol: instead

I think the Altezza would maybe make a good AE86 replacement, but they change the engine and called it a Lexus. Although for once, North America got the better engine...JDM version had a 3SGE or a 2.0 I6 that put out 150 HP.

They should bring back celicas like they used to be.....with balls.....GT4 all trac:rockon:

Old thread, I know, but for the purpose of clarification, the Chaser has been discontinued for maybe 5 years now... it was replaced with the now also discontinued Verossa. And as for other points, the Supra is the "A" chassis and not the "X", which never actually died (the dead Chaser, Verossa, Cressida and Cresta were X platformers). It lives on with the Mark X, which is the only one who's lived on so far.

what other car was an A platformer besides the supra?

Fuck ya lets get the Supra back, and in the States please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you guys would read magazines, there are spy photos in one of the Car and Driver Issues of what is going to be a Supra. Even my dad has heard the owner of the Toyota dealership talking about a new supra.

I had said it a zillion times before that Supra is gone forever since the new Supra topic keeps getting revived.

why does everyone keep thinking that its coming back? Toyota hasnt said anything official about bringing it back and according to PlanetKaizen.com toyota doesnt have plans of bringing the Supra back.
