But that's like the LC500 wheelbase. I think the real Supra is probably the bulky look.

Seems that way ):

We might still have some hope given the mule has a million layers on top and the one at Geneva had a wide body kit on...

I wouldn't hold my breath!

Sure, but if they do that to a Prius what are they going to do to a Supra?

86 South Africa · 05-11-2018, 12:00 PM

I know it’s early days, but just interested to see who would start considering the new supra next year.

This should be interesting

Tcoat · 05-11-2018, 01:13 PM

Not interested. It may be a great car but simply does not meet my needs.
I need an inexpensive commuter that can seat 4 when needed but I can still play with when opportunity arises. The 86 checks all those boxes the Supra checks none. I did vote "other" in the poll though since I have no idea what will be available in 4 or 5 years when I will have to replace the FRS. I am not necessarily an "86 for life" guy so that one didn't fit. I am very eager to see what the WRX/Sti on the new platform is going to be like.

What @Tcoat says.

There is really nothing about the "new Supra" that 1) makes me think it is a Supra successor or 2) meets my needs in a car.

Also, like @Tcoat I have no idea (OK I have some idea) what I'll replace the FRS with when it comes time. Whatever it is, its not what is being shown right now.

kashup · 05-11-2018, 02:15 PM

i would like to get my Hands on it ASAP

johan · 05-11-2018, 02:25 PM

I will consider it when the time comes.

Tokay444 · 05-11-2018, 02:32 PM

I'll have one when they make a manual...

funwheeldrive · 05-11-2018, 02:47 PM

I wouldnt buy one without a manual. But if they did offer it with manual it would be tempting. I wish it was a 2+2 though. I will probably end up buying a Chevy SS in a couple years.
