All I see are a bunch of weird transportation module/podmobile concepts featuring a bunch of hybrid/fuel cell powertrains. And slight mention of the Lexus LF-A with a 500hp V10 (and likely near $100k pricetag). And absolutely no mention of a new Supra. So, it doesn't look like a new Supra will be shown at the Show (at least, not as a 'concept'). I have no idea if Toyota will show us a production version or not once the show officially opens. But I'm getting antsy.....

Replying to: prguy77 (Oct 18, 2005 11:56 am) I'm getting more than a bit perturbed........right now, it looks like my next car purchase will be either a Mustang or RX-8. Oh, but thank God Toyota will release the $100k V10 powered Lexus LF-A. That's JUST what they need......

with that LF-A? A CL55 fighter? Will it even have a back seat? I forget. Haven't heard a word on Supra since the 'net went wild with unfounded rumors a while back. I don't think it is happening. An '07 model would be arriving in 12 months or less from right now. Still who knows, car show season is coming up... |

Toyota has been building boring sport cars, period. Either that or overpriced.

Replying to: khoa (Oct 20, 2005 5:02 pm) Dr.Fill..... its official now that the LF-A has a V10...can we still bank that we'd be getting a supra within the next 2yrs  If we do see a supra, my guesses are: 1) Based on the same IS/GS platform 2) IS 350's engine tuned to about 330hp 3) 2000GT styling (hopefully w/ MKIV style taillights) 4) 1300kg-1400kg kerbweight 5) between 26k and 30k in addition to that, how about it coming as a targa top? that'd be sweet

Jes! Targa Tops add weight, but are very pretty. A 2000GT update would be most sweet!!  I'm gonna fire up the Etch-A-Sketch right now!! DrFill |
