Well if you really think about, this IS a legendary vehicle with huge shoes to fill.

supra-
1.
a prefix meaning “above, over” ( supraorbital) or “beyond the limits of, outside of” ( supramolecular; suprasegmental).


It has to not only meet but exceed what the MKIV offerred. Anything else would be a complete failure. You can't really cut corners on a car of this level and the bar has been set exceptionally high. I honestly believe Toyota already knows this so I'm still holding off till the offical announcement.

Everything else is irrelevant until then.
