The same holds true for all shared Lexus/Toyota vehicles. If Toyota were to make a new Supra, it would almost certainly be a V6. Therefore, it would share chassis with the IS350. So we'd be looking at a little over $30K for a base Supra.
Perhaps Toyota would want to balls to the wall and drop 400+hp in the Supra. In that case, they would certainly use the 3UR-GSE V8. That means a $50K Supra. Toyota would not price a Supra above a Lexus with the same motor. This is marketing 101.

But Sequoia is twin bro of Tundra. GX is twin bro of Land Cruiser Prado.
EDIT: I don't think Toyota will use the same motor because they need to meet to regulation is a few years ahead. They will tune up the engine or design a new one.

Sorry, I screwed that up. The GX is based on the 4Runner (not Squoia). The Land Cruiser Prado is a 4 Runner version for some foreign markets. NOT the same as the Toyota Land Cruiser here. The LX is the Land Cruisers stablemate.
