New Toyota supercar?

[SkylineAdmirer]

This isnt much info, but i was talking to someone at toyota, customer service guy i believe, and i said how toyota really got rid of all its sporty cars. And he goes "Thats not true, we have the supra coming out..... oops wasnt supposed to say that." i asked him whether it was TT or just single turbo, but he said [he didnt noe] suuure, anyway thought some of you might like to know were going to get a supra coming out:D :bigpimp: :D

havent seen anything about this yet, assumed noe1 knew

There is a toyota supercar coming out. It'll be LIKE the supra.. but will offer better :drool: factors.

[SkylineAdmirer]

[statick]

i heard theres guna be a is300 coupe, and the sedan/wagon body will be upgraded to a 430 engine (already is elsewhere, but now in canada). is300 has a motor similar to the supra i heard . ne1 else hear this?

They don't have an inexpensive sporty car for the masses. What was the MSRP of the last Supra? Over $50k? That was like 10 years ago.

If Toyota actually produces a supercar, very few people will be able to afford one.

the goons at the dealership dont know any more than we do about pre-release cars.

do a search. there are spy pics of the new "supra." its rumored to be a hybrid v10 or some crazy shit.

I herd its sposed to have, 3.5L v6 or sumthing non turbo, another v6 and a v8 option... heres what a googleimages search turned up, id say its definate to say its coming, its gonna be a beast:drool:

^^^Am I crazy, or do those body lines look a LOT like a Tiburon? Especially those "gills."

[markymark]

I was gonna say the first pics, body styling reminds me of a RX8 (except for the headlights)

[Kamen]

RX8? No way...more like a Mustang...

I wouldn't go so far to say definate...

nothing is definite yet. suposedly there is a 500+hp v10 comming in the "car" (may or may not be a supra), with a price tag of about $100 000 US

But like everyone said, it's not gonna be for the masses @ $100K. And it could be a Lexus instead of Toyota in order to commend that price.

^^ i agree

most sources are saying that Toyota's next sports car is supposed to compete with Porsches both in specs and price range
:thumbsdow

[PH1PH1]

the rear reminds meh of the older eclipse .. not feelin it :thumbsdow

[E60]

Good to see it coming !

[iceburns288]

Yeah I was about to say it's near 100k. WAY too much IMO. About as much as a 997S WITH all the options (including the 10k PCCB system) :eek:

[SkylineAdmirer]

All i hear from magazine sites is its supposed t obe 20-30k t ocompete with the nissan 350Z roadster.

it's all speculation right now. who the fuck knows what the hell it is? nobody does.
so wait until they unveil it at a big auto show in the spring.

I have to agree with you on that one.. plus never trust what those chimps working at the dealership say. They are all so uninformed about everything, or are so high on themselves to realize they don't have too much more information then we do like stated before.
