I'm really torn right now. I would sell my FRS in a heartbeat if Toyota produced a modern day supra. Instead I feel like Toyota is going to give us a Prius on steroids.

Here are some more screen shots from the video. Compared to the concept, it does have that line in the headlight. See last two photos for comparison.

hmm if this is a Prius on Steroids that performs, looks great is good on MPG and doesn't cost NSX territory.

I think we would have a pretty good car on our hands.

I would buy it, if I like it : ) then again on the day I buy it, Honda will be like

WE HAVE A NEW S2000!

and I'll be like EFFF.... I'll just have two cars and eat ramen for the rest of my life.

which prolly wont be very long, because only ramen.

Here is the link to the video. If you don't have time to watch the hole thing than fast forward to the 3:55 and 7:04 minute mark.

Can't be Corolla wheels, look at the rim's edge.

Scaled up the by wheel size and the wheel base is longer than the gt86. Do a body lift at that scale to match the supra's fender/hood line and it is different... Chubby girls need love'n too!

I'm sure the Supra will be a good car regardless. It's just hard for me to get excited over cars with a bunch of batteries and electric motors strapped to them.


The new cars I have been aspiring to own all seem to have NA V8s. (GT350, Camaro SS, Chevy SS).

so it shares all the lines of the FRS, has the same wheels poking out but all you can come up with is since it looks like a longer car it must be the Supra xD

...you're all being trolled by fake articles and poor assumptions, but I guess let's keep the hype train going.

New rendereings.

I love the font end, I just wish the tail lights were more aggressive like the FT-1.
