...if they do that... then it's gonna be the most blasphemous thing that has happened.. since.. happenings

the rumor that hasn't died for over a decade. it would be a Toyota and priced to compete w/ Camaro and Mustang. it's amazing the nonsense car publications spew out. the concept of a hybrid paired w/ a sportscar has always seemed wrong to me, for so many many reasons. not only that, but hybrid technology isn't really all that environmentally friendly or "sustainable'. tree hugging hyperbole drives me nuts, because it's BOGUS.

@400hp, how exactly do they plan to target the GT-R in price and performance? Ultra lightweight? With a hybrid?..... yeah right. This is bunk.

well, 400hp, super high low speed torque, keep weight below 3200, it could be close :O say they keep FT weight for the chassis/body by using more aluminum and fiberglass or something, add a few hundred for the bigger motor, it could happen!

Nope, it'll be Lexus. I highly doubt Toyota gonna let SCION sell over $35k car

Wouldn't this Toyota Supra infact be the Lexus Concept tht is going to be shown in january? Or wouldn't this Lexus be the IS Coupé Concept? Way to many sport cars coming all of a sudden out from Japan.

i don't get it?? you're more or less saying what i'm saying in that this isn't a GTR competitor. the MKVI Supra was a Mustang/Camaro competitor in the same size and performance class.

Mk4 was a Vette competitor.

He's saying that priced like a Mustang/Camaro is dreaming.

Back in high school I would spend my study period on just reading about cars and the "FT-HS" is one car I remember my friends and I always debated about.
So I want to see a Lexus Supra now Toyota (no need for a hybrid)!

Oh I forgot that Scion was meant to be cheap.

Still sounds terrible though.

IDK if they gonna actually use the name Supra is the big question.

MkIV Supra was the best car they never made (IMO) and I don't think Toyota wanna give that name away to Lexus or Scion, even though they're same company
