This shouldn’t be surprising as the twin platform is starting to show its age.

There will most likely be a twin successor, it just won’t be on a modified twin platform.

People bitch and moan about how the twins need more power. Toyota builds a Supra. People bitch and moan about how a Supra costs and weighs too much. Enthusiasts ain't shit.

That article reads like it was written by an "ancient astronaut theorist", lots of "could be" and "distinct possibility" stuff.

Why do you think there would be a successor on a 6 year old platform?

All of the stuff so far is based on a one line teaser from a Japanese tabloid. It may as well have said "Big foot and aliens are destroying all the 86s" for all we actually know. That tabloid is the jump off point for so many rumours with very few ever being right. The weebos will all scream "BUT IT IS FROM JAPAN SO THEY KNOOOOOOW" though.

Hmmmm....

There are sources in Japan.

The twins are built in Japan.

Therefore the information is credible.

Why won't people wake up to what's in front of them!?
