I think scion would become the sports brand of toyota since the TC is known to be the celica's successor

I was reading in Top Speed.com that referenced an interview with Tada-San and Top Gear that said that the Supra is possible, but, there are two others first.

The yellow seat belts and center lock wheels are very Porsche 911 GT3ish. The Vortech supercharger looks neatly packaged. Cant wait to see numbers and a price.

Hopefully this comes out better than the last Meguiar's SEMA car...

Choose from our original Center Lock Conversion (with full-length hub spindle) or the new Flush-Loc Conversion (that eliminates the snout of the adapter for a "flush" clean look)."

BECAUSE RACE CAR? I don't see too many people doing this at $1,200+ per wheel, not to mention the cost of the conversion... But it does look baller.

Now to find a set of BRZ GT300 wheels...

Very nice! My only thing, yellow center caps instead of the red. I don't think the red works there. Make the caps yellow, I'm sold.

I'm not even in the states and it would piss me off lol.

Future RS right here. I think it would do Toyota a whole lot of good to source SCs from Vortech like they did with the 1st-gen tC, except this time I hope Toyota doesn't screw it up. Make the car yellow, leather interior, but the center locks are a bit overkill.

DBacon1052 10-19-2012 12:16 AM

How much do you think this supercharger costs?

"whisper whisper" secretly holding out for 2014 model hoping yellow as available option. :thumbup:

YELLOW SEAT BELTS!

The car almost looks like old ferrari 360. And that line on the middle of the hood goes very well with the car. Does it say 265 tires?:)

SVTSHC 10-19-2012 02:08 AM

Know what that is? Art. Can't wait till the S.E.M.A shots.

rice_classic 10-19-2012 02:11 AM

That muh muh muh makes me h-happy.

Xenocide117 10-19-2012 02:21 AM

Love the seats. Not really a fan of the suede dash (all those finger marks), but it still looks good. I think I like the yellow. I would like to see it done in a bright blue. Like a Grabber or Voodoo blue.
