well, that makes me worried.

Lexus is Toyota's Luxury Branch.

The only problem, if you even consider it a problem was that the supra was from " Toyota". Toyota was, and is known as a Extremly Reliable, Durable, Well built Economy Cars. unfortuneatly $40-$50,000.00 is not economy and the people Who Had enough Cash to Drop on a new Supra " Rich Folk" like to buy cars that represent Luxury and wealth, something which the Brand Name "Toyota" doesn't really Scream unlike Lexsus, Volvo, benz, BMW,and So on.

My fear is they converted it to lexus Logo, and made a new platform. going with the new times they are going to redesign the ugliest crap of life and slap "Supra TRD" on it...... if they Do ill Cry, and not a full Blown out Cry just that single Tear down my cheek.

i wish we could Vote on it... i would not want to see a new supra, i just want what we currently got. kinda like chevy always had their freaking Corevette. and the Corevette for the most part still looks the same maybe a few New curves but Generally the platform and same design. then again by now a lot of people can be having supras in a way im glad they stopped producing , it makes them more Rare and not as played out.

You would think they would have learned this back when you could pay 48K for a Land Cruiser or 55+ for a LX450 that was the same vehicle, just to have the Lexus name.

Dont know how much research you guys have done but heres what i found



Toyota is finally honing on the replacement for the Supra with the FT-HS 400HP Hybrid V6 based upon this version from the Detroit Auto Show.

The rumors of a possible drivetrain shift with Toyotas recent acquisition of Subaru lends itself to a all-wheel-drive 400hp hybrid platform.

i agree with previous responces, it looks like toyota has went for luxurie, and just the fact that they completly changed the body style i mean look at the mustang u brng back that boxed front end and rear end and those straight lines from the early modles and they sell out they are everywhere, if toyota could just stick with that body style in som aspects then it sell out! and the fact that they are throin a v8 in there, come on toyota that wat a supra is is a I-6 and multiple turbos, keeps us light with to much fuuckin tork and hp to be touched, i took out like 6 out of 8 5.0's i raced, a supercharged denali, and countless other cars with just my I-6 n/a and mods out the ass, i dont need a V-8, i love my 6 till i die! lol

i really don't know why everyone is complaining about a friggan v8 in a supra. people are all tryin to squeeze v8s into their FDs and Miatas and you guys wanna tear the shit out for a smaller, older, heavier motor that is more prone to fucking up? thats ass backwards. v8s are stone cold simple and makes fucktons of torque. Besides, with a NA v8 stock, there will be so much more potential then some 3.xLitre straight 6.
I have been testing corvettes recently, and i don't like the cheap american interiors but i really like that LS1/2/6/7s can pull out of anything in any gear. and the 2/7 motors sound rediculous, like F1 status with exhaust.

Aftermarket Twin Turbo v8 supras anyone?

dont know why your bashing on the 2JZ, who many 3.0L engines in the world you you know of that can produce 1400+++ hp? that would even be a strain on your Vette V8s.
