Nice Astin.
Yeah if they do a N/A v6 it will be just as gay as the rx8. super slow!

The red looks like the 93+ I like it
The black looks like a Mits. FTO not cool.
The white 2000gt super cool!

I hate the view of the black one from the front... hate it. I think it's kinda stupid to say that it would be super slow as an rx-8, it would push out more power than the 350z, which is a low 5 sec car and is pretty quick.

Yeah about the MPG part. Both the engines are Fuel Effiecent engines. LAME!

[jayi12-15psi]

if you can get over 300 hp and good gas mileage, why the hell not? That's rediculous. A muscle car with good mpg is about the best thing ever.

Yeah but performance-wise, lets change both 7A-FE and 5S-FE to 7A-GE and 5S-GE. You will know the difference.

I like the rear...but the front...eh...I guess I'm just not a big fan of these newer "futuristic" looks that cars are getting these days...

ever find it funny that 20-25 years ago, "futuristic" meant lots of straight edges, angles, slants, corners and whatnot, and these days, it's all about the curve? It seems the less "straight" you can get, the better...

edit: interesting too to see how far apart the Celi and Supra have grown in looks

I usually do not cross post, but it has been discussed too often.

There were rumors of a 8th gen Celica ?

What happened to that ?
There was a rumor of an awd turbo'd Corrola RunnerX .
Turned out to be a April fools joke.

Even the Caldina GT4 is an Auto Only in the Japan market. (I'd Still like one :-)
When do you think the US will get a Real Sports car, manual powerful etc..; from Toyota ?

well, even though it has been discussed often, I cited that in the title. Thanks for pointing out the obvious. The difference with this topic is the fact that this is a new rendition of what the supra is thought to look like. I have not seen this specific topic discussed on this site.

Furthermore, if the 350z can sell year after year, why can't the supra? Granted there's probably more of a following for the Z-line, but when they see the supra outperform, they're loyaltys may switch. Toyota doesn't often take chances like this... don't you think it's time?

I wanna punch this article. it's ridiculous and anyone who believes an ounce of it is a fool. Toyota hasn't even released the power specs on the new tundra yet and we know for a fact that vehicle is coming. Oh, but SOMEHOW this website knows the exact power specs AND pricing. Wow. they must be psychic.
