Whatever, FT-HS isn't going to be the new MK5 Supra anyways. Toyota officials already said they aren't going to bring the name back. FT-HS will just be filling the spot that the Supra left behind, so thats only connection between the two.

Talking with an old Supra vet, he pointed out to me that Toyota has NEVER, resurrected ANY retired name. Didn't do any research myself, but off the top of my head he seems to be correct. So it likely won't be FT-HS but probably something very similar. H for Hybrid, S for Sport and whatever else they feel like putting in (T for Targa?).
