OG Supra-style. Nice.

Toyota (professionals, naturally) did stretch the wheelbase to maintain weight distribution when they went from the 4 cyl RWD Celica to the 6 cyl Celica-Supra. (similarities, anyone?)

Hint-fucking-hint, Toyota...

So I searched and found this thread. Rather than starting a new thread I'm bumping this from 3 and a half months ago... your welcome.

Just to post

I was just saying that this past weekend. Can you imagine the car with any Porsche engine for that matter?

I remember in an old Gumball 3000 video seeing a VW bus with a GT2 engine in it. That thing was AWESOME! All the other racers were in their lambos and ferraris, cramped and uncomfortable. These dudes had one guy driving and the other guy laying down in the back eating cheetos as they fly down the freeway at 200mph, HAHA!

I'm thinking that rumored new Cayman 4 Cylinder Turbo would be the ultimate engine for this car.

Not to necro this thread again, but the turbo flat four isn't even the right engine for the Cayman... have you ever heard what a flat six sounds like? The sound alone is priceless.
