Toyota Supra Inspired GT 86

Seriously? This isn't posted anywhere yet???? http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2...uto-salon.html

Sorry if this a repost guys I tried looking but I just lurk this site, I'm not on as often as some of my other forums. But this had me screaming like a school girl. I swear I did try to :search: though.

The star of the Tokyo Auto Salon, the GRMN Sports FR Concept is a GT 86 build by Toyota’s motorsports partner Gazoo Racing and inspired by the legendary Supra itself.

With unmistakably original bodywork, the real story lies under the hood where Toyota has mated the 4-cylider boxer engine with both a supercharger and a turbocharger to deliver 330 hp.

As for the sheetmetal, it helps transform the GT 86 (sold here as the Scion FR-S) from a fun weekend toy, to a genuine sports car that looks capable of tangling with a Porsche. Along with the Supra-inspired taillights, flared bodywork, massive rear spoiler and quad-exhaust system, the car itself is 4-inches longer than a conventional GT 86 and a total of 3-inches wider.
The wider body also makes room for some big 18-inch wheels with wired tires measuring 245 up front and 265 in the rear.
The customization doesn’t stop outside the car either with a white and black cabin, including beautifully stitched two-tone leather racing seats.

First the R8 inspired, now the Supra.

I guess we are gonna see the GT-R inspired next.

I don't think this specific article has been though. But really, who cares? It'd be worth re-posting simply for those awesome tails. Oh how I'd want those tail lights :drool:

Yep, we didn't post individual articless for every 86/FR/BR at the TAS 2013. Thanks for getting one stared.
Waaaaaaaaay back when the triplets were just an inkling in SubYota's minds there was plans for an upscale GRmn version of the car. Maybe this is more than another wacky concept?

Yes its been posted and yes it's awesome. The car gives me needs.
