Looks a bit bland - although it's speculation, I hope for something a bit more dramatic on the front-end.

Please, no.... I am really hoping for a Toyota win on this car.... this wouldn't be it.

The overall body is ok. But that front bumper has to go!!!

My thoughts exactly - everything looks great starting from the back, right until we pass the front wheel well.

I think the new rendering isn't that bad. The front bumper does need work tho. Can someone please put some decent wheels on it? I just think people are expecting too much after seeing the FT-1 concept.

Summerwolf · 10-04-2016, 04:31 PM

I don't like how it is missing rear brake ducts now. The front bumper isn't even what I'm upset about, and I honestly don't see them bringing those wheels to light, lol.

Agreed, and sadly I think it maybe so on the production car as well. None of the BMW Z3 and Z4 had them. IMO this is a huge missed opportunity by Toyota to bring back a real successor to the Supra. I have a feeling the new "Supra" is nothing more than a slightly reskin BMW Z5

X2, the wheels look gay and influenced by the FT-CH concept.

Edit:

Wheels look similar to the Corolla SE.

If all they wanted was a bigger, more powerful FRS/GT86, then I guess it works.
But I agree that they are missing the opportunity for something legendary - and losing those rear brake ducts is certainly an indication that this is what we'll see...

I think they're straying too far from the original concept. They're taking something that was strikingly beautiful and unique and turning it into something that looks like just another car.

Summerwolf · 10-04-2016, 05:52 PM

Thats IF this "leaked" info is accurate. Still waiting for real announcements by toyota.

vh_supra26 · 10-04-2016, 08:05 PM

Looks like it took styling cues from the BMW Zagato Coupe Concept.

ZetaVI · 10-04-2016, 08:41 PM

Well, the body does have that Supra-ish look and feel based on the prototype. I have to give credit to Toyota right now hiding the front very well. The thirst of what it'll look like in the form of renders is real.
