Another Supra PS . . .
Soon come, time will tell. And I think Toyota is waiting on the new release of the Skyline GT-R as it may have plans to go up against. I do not think this will be the final cut to go into production, and I can defintely see a more potent engine and higher perfomance hybrid option, than what is stated on all these Japanese mags. Can't wait!!!

Wow, that's a really good looking PS. I wish we could get some sort of official word if they were even going to build a sports car...otherwise these are all just shots in the dark

Thats a MUCH better looking front end than the previous chops. I was always under the impression that LF-A (now confirmed to be V10 powered) will be the competitor to the Ininiti GTR and the Supra would take on the Nissan Z? Either way, i think Toyota needs to hurry up with the Supra. Nissan has been enjoying sales of the 350Z for a solid couple of years now with very little competition from the anemic RX8.

honestly, as much as i am dying to see a new supra coming back, i dont get excited over this supra news anymore. I have been fallen for this for so many times but has been all rumors.
IS350 will do just fine for me

If the next supra follows one of the more credible rumors -- 400+HP V8 based on the IS460 coupe -- then it'll be nowhere near $30k. More like 45k~50k, still significantly lower than the GT-R.
If Toyota needs something to take on the 350Z, they should reintroduce Celica with the new 3.5 V6 and price it around 28k. The sub 20k sportscars can be handled by the tC.

The name hasn't even been decided... it's still in "X123" project name format =\
as to the supra... heh.
