A little insider information here, though I'd take it suspiciously at best because my dad likes to make things up, or act like he knows everything, but according to him they already have the green light to produce this car. Obviously it's far from production, but apparently they're moving it forward.

Yea I think the confusion is whether the numbers from GT6 are based off the dimensions of the concept or the actual production version. If they're based off the concept then we should expect the production specs to be 10% less. I wasn't saying you were wrong or anything but a lot of people were looking at your post and commenting on how the car was so large.

What was your lap time on the actual Seasonal event? I took it around the Nurburg last night with Sport Soft tyres, upped the brakes to 7. Ran a 7:17 (would have been a 7:16 if not for rubbing the inside of the last corner and causing the rear to break loose). I noticed the car only has 6 gears in GT6 and the pictures of the concept steering wheel in real life has 7. Gearing felt great on the Burg though.

I think its the game car, I mean if it was for the actually concept than why didn't Toyota just release it in the press release when the car was unveiled? Here are the numbers compared to the old Supra. Toyota FT-1 Concept Length- 4,675 mm (184.05 in) Width- 1,970 mm (77.55 in) Height: 1,225 mm 48.22 in) Wheelbase: 2,740 mm (107.87 in) MK4 Toyota Supra Length: 4,515 mm (177.8 in) Width: 1,811 mm (71.3 in) Height: 1,265 mm (49.8 in) Wheelbase: 2,550 mm (100.4 in) |

If I did my math right. Here are the number - 10% and than compared to the MK4, RC350 and Toyota 86.
Toyota FT-1 Concept (From GT6) Length- 184.05 in Width- 77.55 in Height: 48.22 in Wheelbase: 107.87 in Toyota FT-1 (10% less) Length- 165.64 in Width- 69.3 in Height: 43.39 in Wheelbase: 97.08 in MK4 Toyota Supra Length: 177.8 in Width: 71.3 in Height: 49.8 in Wheelbase: 100.4 in Lexus RC350 Length: 185 in Width: 72 in Height: 55 in Wheelbase: 107 in Toyota 86 Length: 166.9 in Width: 69.9 in Height: 50.6 in Wheelbase : 101.2 in The new numbers would make it shorter than the Toyota 86. |

I doubt the FT1 is gonna be smaller than the FRS, so perhaps the 10% is a bit off. The listed dimensions in GT seem pretty spot on, really.

Agreed at 10% it would be ridiculously small. Using VH supra's numbers I could see maybe 5% which is smaller than the last supra but still larger than the GT-86. What we need is the actual dimensions of the concept car shown in Detroit and then take 10% off of that. Do we know what platform it's going to based on because looking at VH's numbers it's almost spot on in length and wheelbase with the RC350 suggesting they are related. I really hope not because the RC is a freaking fat pig at 3970 lbs. If it's based off of a stretched GT-86 platform then we could see a relatively light supra.
