maybe toyota is going back to their roots and instead of the supra being a separate model, it will become the top of the line FT-86. This is how it was before the mk3 supra. think better suspension, sti engine, and a more aggressive body kit

I want my Supra to have a bomb proof engine and a targa top. Nothing else is acceptable.

Wide body 350hp FRS/BRZ and you have a new Supra. I bet they do try to make it some hybrid halo car to compete with the NSX. Hopefully they don't do what they did with the LFA and make it 2.5 as expensive as it should be.

Y'know, like the recent Nissan 200SX thread, I just feel unfortunately like I've seen this article way too many times over the past 10 years or so to give it any credence...
Call me when they are green lighting a production ready concept that's actually been caught testing, rather than saying it'll be maybe based off a race team MR-S. Slow news day... |

It funny that out of the almost 20 years the Supra was made the only one many people care about was the last one that no one bought when it was actually made.

I remember seeing a 1998 model at the NY auto show my dad took me to and always wanted one. I still remember the price tag was around $50k. and people say the GTR is expensive. The Supra, RX7, 300zx, 3000GT were expensive cars in those days. |

Once you adjust for inflation, it wouldn't surprise me if many of the "GT" cars were priced in GTR territory.

U gots good math skills. My dad wanted an MK4 Supra when they were released, after he fell in love with his turbo 3rd gen Supra. But in Canada they were stickering for close to $60g. They were rare, expensive, and sexy. But at the time it was far too much money for most enthusiasts. |

The Mark IV Supra is the poster child for cars pricing themselves out of their own markets. For reference, that's $45,000 in 2010 US Dollars for a 276hp Japanese car. You could buy a 275hp 25th Anniversary Trans-Am for $23,500 ($34,200 in 2010) if you wanted a muscle car. |

I can see the Supra name return as a trim level, just like the original.
