If the 86 is a huge hit, then this will happen quicker.
A new supra likely but as stated wont be called supra. |

I hope if they do make it, I hope they keep it as aggressive looking as the prototype. You never know it might be worth trading the GTS86 for it....maybe.. Then again with just a little more power with a few mods already in the works....The 86 still might be a better car!

The little brother could be a really cheap, high mpg, rear wheel drive car. Think about a RWD Yaris 3 door or RWD IQ with around 95-125 hp.

Common Note
As long as it takes, but i always keep in mind, my current car loses its value by year and KMs. New car would be nice since my current car is 2nd hand. =P I have always wanted a rwd coupe |

I'd rock it, though the concept drawing will change 10 times before an actual prototype is made.
