What he actually said is that it blew up at about 750hp. That could mean two things:

1. Toyota is trying to make an engine that could withstand a lot of power and are working to improve that 750hp...

My guess is weight. They could have gone with a B58 but I guess it didn't cut it for the "tuner" aspect and reliablity to handle the power (even though I think the B58 has decent potential).

And...

That's what I would have guessed a month ago or so. But from the info "A70" from the MKV forum has provided, it is highly likely that link's speculation will be true. He works at Toyota and pretty...

Even if it was identical to a B58, it has been confirmed to have an iron/CGI block. So no, it's not off shelf.

Compared to the MKIV, it's just 10 inches shorter in length (167 vs 177) which as said helps with weight distribution. Every other aspect is larger body wise.

A 3 inch shorter wheel base was...

If that's true then yeah, it's all about the numbers. But somehow I doubt it will be as attainable as they claim it will be but we'll see.

You said it yourself. It's rare. The first few cars will get huge mark ups for that exact reason. Imagine you have the first supra in your area, the fan boys will be all up in your a**. Once the hype...

Best render so far. Finally one with a proper hood line. All others have it sit too high like the mule making it look bulky.

For what it's worth, my brother owned a 2008 7 series for almost a decade. He drove it to almost 300,000km with 20,000km oil change intervals. The only thing he "fixed" was a single ignition coil.

It never meant anything to Toyota but with how it's rumored to have 4 engine/power trims I'm hoping it's in the works.

When you put it that way a Focus RS weighs only 200lbs over the supra and has at least 15hp more. That's almost exactly the same power to weight ratio. It's very underwhelming to say the least.

I would call it "the mid cycle refresh" like everyone else suggested it needs.

I honestly thought it was the FT-1 at first glance. Toyota is really sticking to the concepts with the LC500 and now the Supra if those turn out to be true.
