It's like we have a mix of a ferrari 599, a honda S2000, and a porsche carrera GT.

Damn I like that backview of the white one. the convetable doesnt look that great, still nice tho

**Dyoel182** · 3-5-06, 17:36

Glad they decided on staying with the RWD platform. It looks great but will likely cost a bunch.

Looks gorgeous. I like how the article compares an rx8, s2k, and 350z but then says the supra is gonna cost 50k. Ok why not try comparing to something in its price range? Could be interesting to see skyline vs supra sales numbers.

love it!! coupe is nicer
5.0 V8!! that sounds nice! 50K thats not bad!! u guys get cars CHEAP!
import tax back home kills us!! its double for normal cars but for sports and lux its more!!
would love to see a skyline vs supra
many new jap cars comin out soon
new NSX new skyline new RX7 and now Supra! oh and the lexus LFC concept(not sure of the name)
next year is gonna be full of these nice cars

The new RX7 had better have some pics leaked of it

I hope it doesn't look like that Kabura concept, it looks to bloated.
Hopefully we'll get some more info on all these cars soon.

hmmm............5.0 V8. That's......odd. For a Japanese "supercar" that's always relied on amazing straight 6 engines in particular. I wouldn't mind the extra displacement, but it seems like such a departure from tradition. a lot of Supra fanatics are going to have some choice words about that.

Gorgeous styling.

yeah it'l be like the old day's were they'd say "UH OH FIVE O!" where 5L mustangs ran around.

Can't wait to hear the 5L toyota engine with an exhaust system, mmm hmmm!

**Keegan** · 3-5-06, 20:11

Ya, that'll shut up some of those domestic hard asses that comment on the fart can noises.

2WOSEXY · 3-5-06, 20:28

Yeah also considering toyota has a 5L v8, making 450hp while ford needs a 5.4L supercharged engine to make the same power in a GT500. Dodge making 425 hp from a 6.1L hemi.. etc, toyota has the technology advantage, but then again, who didn't know that already.

Wow that's a sexy car. Always loved the Supra and glad it's coming back, even if it looks different. Really sexy back on the hardtop.

NIce, but I'll be first in line for a 2007 Camaro.

Fugly

The Supra looks ugly imo, too.

**91turbo666** · 3-5-06, 21:58

im suprised the japanese would go down the path of using a 5 litre V8. with the pollution over there, they try to reduce large cars on the road with tax incentives on making smaller motors, like those 600cc cars. you only have to look at the high performing cars to see they dont usually go over 3 litres (supra nsx GTR etc) only the most luxurious cars going higher. therefore id imagine the 5 litre engine would be hellishly expensive
