  1. What will the FT-1 be called? Supra trademark revived by Toyota!

    I think if GM and Ford ever nixed the Camaro and Mustang to create one shared sports car, you'd see the respective fans of each car burning down the car's production plant :) I'm of the opposite opinion. If it gets BMW engine and other mechanical parts then I'd rather they just name it...
  2. Interviews with Chief Engineer Tetsuya Tada

    +1 Any company that has participated in F1 racing has been at the pinnacle of motorsports. We've been hearing for years about how Toyoda and Tada want to bring sporty back to Toyota. The FR-S was a great big first step and even more so now that it's badged as a Toyota 86. Maybe after the Supra...
  3. New Toyota Supra rumored to get Toyota twin turbo V6 engine

    New engine would give the Supra revival even more buzz and attention than it will already get! I've always thought that a halo sports car should have a halo engine that's exclusive for it, or at least was introduced with it (and then filters to other models).
  4. Will FT-1 concept follow the FT-86 timeline?

    Hasn't been a dribble of news coming from Toyota on the car. Hope Tokyo auto show changes that in a couple of months. But even if they released another concept then, how early could we possibly see a new Supra be produced? Best case scenario of seeing it start production in 2016 (as a 2017...
  5. 40th anniversary for Toyota's Calty Design Research, Creators of the FT-1 Concept

    If the new Supra comes as a hybrid I really don't think it'll develop anywhere close to the following that the last gen had. The Supra name moved to a whole new level of legend because of how tuner friendly it was and how much the car was modified and embraced by 'junkies'
  6. BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage Concept

    But the M4 GTS concept they also revealed at Pebble Beach is the more hardcore M4 variation. This can't be another M4. BMW does all kinds of styling exercise concepts that never get built.
  7. 3rd gen G29 BMW Z4 (2019-202X)

    If rumors of the Supra being 2018 earliest it is no surprise BMW wont be showing it so early. I'm sure the two companies have roughly coordinated schedules for when to show their respective cars considering development is still ongoing. I'm thinking there may be details about the platform that...
  8. Performances Predictions for fun

    I'd like to think it will be given above 155 electronically limited. I don't believe the C7 is limited.. what is it at, 190? There are much cheaper cars (i.e. Mustang) that are limited at 155. We need MOAR.
  9. Wish List for the new Supra / Must Have Futures and Options!

    And at this point it doesn't look like it will. It's like the entire project was just one big experiment. Luckily the Supra nameplate is strong enough already that they (hopefully) wouldnt abandon it within a few years.
  10. Graphite Toyota FT-1 Second Concept Coming to Pebble Beach (Updated to Include Various Auto Shows)

    Looks great as usual :) Thanks for the coverage from all the shows. Amazing that Toyota has managed to bring the concept to each auto show.
  11. New Ford GT leaked?

    Beast. Cmon Toyota where's your halo sports car already (Supra)?? LF-LC is coming yea but that's wearing a Lexus badge.
  12. The MKIV vs MKV Thread

    What car had/has that engine? Tunable?
  13. The Engine Speculation Thread

    But Supra will be a global car so Toyota will have to engineer to cater to all markets, including ones where gas prices are high.
  14. Will FT-1 concept follow the FT-86 timeline?

    I hope it doesn't come to that. I hate to say it but given a choice I think they should sscrap the FRS in favor of the Supra. If they can only afford to have one sports car in a bad economy it has to be a true flagship one like Nissan with the GT-R. No one will ever take them seriously in this...
  15. Must Read: the Birth Story of the FT-1 Concept

    I look forward to receiving new issues on my ipad. The interactive magazines are so much better quality pix than a print magazines. And you can play videos etc.
  16. Toyota FT-1 concept & A90 Supra design dissected

    Coffin Nose... cool name :) Please keep the coffin nose design Toyota I love the look.
  17. 2020 Supra Transmission Chat - Manual, Dual Clutch, or Auto?

    Not that I've seen but early rumors were that it might get a 10 speed auto. Way too many speeds! Toyota/Lexus needs to get with the times and come out with a proper dual clutch already.
  18. Will the 2017 Supra use carbon fiber?

    x2. Reminds me of using bondo with fiberglass :rofl:
  19. The Pricing Thread + Potential US Tariffs Impact

    There is no good business case for any powerful car in Europe. They are for the affluent. That's not a good reason to give it a cheap underpowered engine just to sell it there. The big picture is it would hurt ALL sales , like it or not it would lose some serious street cred if it came with a 4...
  20. What are you ok / not ok with new Supra sharing with BMW

    But certain plants and factories are definitely known to be better quality than others within the same company. I agree with the owners that would prefer their Japanese and German cars to be built in the home country though. Just seems more genuine, even tho I know the quality at plants...
