Should be exciting to say the least.

 

Smells gorgeous.

 

Good! I think every manufacturer involved with F1 should have a supercar!

I hope that wing falls off though

 

wing? I thought someone was using the car as a uhaul and moving a dining table across the street.

 

my bad, you're right :D

 

I could use some of that tar-paper on my roof... $#@!*& hurricanes!

 

obviously that wing wont be permanent. it looks like it would pop up like on porsches.

 

More pics and info if youre interested

At 190 mph, at least the wing would be functional.

 

That car is hot. I was going to wait for the Supra before getting the 8. I like Toyotas.

^There's no way that a wing that size will pop up like on porsches.

 

why not the carrera GT has an even bigger pop up wing

 

I don't think that the car will have a wing at all.

 

could it be the Volta from the Geneva show?

 

pretty nifty but I can't see too many people spending 6 figures for a "yota"

 

who's gonna pay six figures for a toyota? i dont care if it has 1,000 hp. disgrace.

 

whose gonna pay 100k+ for a ford? I would , if i got that much, hehe. Ford GT, if its got the performance and looks, i think it will sell.

 

doesn't ford own mazda?? lol

anyways.. i don't think it matters what the brandname is on the product.. if kia made a 1000 hp supercar.....i'd deff. consider it! lol it's about the substance and quality.. and toyota deff. has the racing heritage to earn it some respect.

 

toyota would sell it as a lexus here, they would have sold the supra as one too, but lexus lacked the brand substantiation.

it seems to have alot of supra DNA in it

 

Don't be so sure, look at the Landcruiser... It didn't have the nameplate yet many people weren't shy about shelling out big money to get one, even after the same vehicle could be had as a Lexus.

 

toyota sold the landcruncher as a toyota then for the same reason they sold the supra as one...lexus has for a long time (before 2000 anyway) lacked market power as a brand name

 

There's also news of a different car spied in CA.

Toyota works in conjunction with my college, and they specifically told us that the Supra was dead and will not be comming back (as of 2 weeks ago at least). So, I wouldn't doubt that this car will be sold as a Lexus since the Supra name is dead.

 

Its funny. In the entire 21 pages / 2 months that that article has been going, not a single person has gotten a pic of the new rwd Toyota sports car that, according to the TRD rep. on pg 1, has been testing in CA.

 

People pay around 6 figures for a Honda (NSX) so why not a Toyota?
