I can't believe the Supra wheelbase will be shorter than the 86. I guess it'll be a 2 seater after all.

I'd rather have a longer wheelbase, makes for easier driving at the limit.

Shorter wheelbase all day erry day for me...
I drove a well set-up *tiny* 73" wheelbase Formula 440 at Road Atlanta once, and the handling sensitivity was AMAZING. Very easy to control and quick to recover. Not a fan of BIG sports cars, very glad to see this one under 100" wheelbase

Yep shorter wheelbase but still a bigger car. For the sake of the debate on the size in the picture wheelbase is meaningless.

Starting to look pretty... and a bit more like a real road car.
I’m quite excited to see this bad boy in “real form” sometime soon - I really hope it isn’t pared back too much to make it boring. A wheel arch or scoop or two would be ace.

Don't think you're going to get that small of a wheel gap on a production car, which definitely makes these renderings look better. Regardless, even if not, easy to fix
