I fail to see the logic here, assuming the Supra has less than 400 hp.
Because the highest trim model will have close to 400. Toyota wanted something "for the tuners", hence why they might have gone the CGI route. Again, this is all speculation, however, I am a believer that Toyota will deliver on this one.
