The quarter panel does look promising. It also explains why they tried so hard to hide it on the prototype with that odd camo panel drilled into the side.
imagine what's under the rest of the camo panels then....


The good thing is, once the racing concept is unveiled, they can do testing without the cladding as the general shape will be known - they can test aero etc.

Maybe one of the guys in the know can say whether the 'ring and Spa times were with the mules wearing their plastic camo panels or without?

Likely will just be a posting of a press release at that time. The reveal may or may not have a live stream on their website, but I doubt it.

The top is similar to the RX-VISION, btw I added the NC1 so it wouldn't be lonely

So, no manual for neither BMW nor Supra? Maybe because of the transaxle which is only available as automatic? There are rumors of M8 being RWD only transaxle.

I just don’t get this from Toyota. Not enough power, not many would dare modify the first cars that are built due to reliability concerns. It will take at least a year or 2 before tested and safe aftermarket tunes and accessories will be available, then Toyota will can it due to poor sales figures and then they say there is no market for a sports car like the Supra in today’s market...I wonder why? I’m not trolling just frustrated lol.

Sammy82, have you read through all the posts? I think many of us made assumptions on the final car weight and hp etc. and were disappointed by what we read, me too, but many comments have also been posted saying that much of the info is incorrect...So I am feeling pretty postive and will remain optimistic until we know the details for sure...suggest you do the same...shouldn't be too much longer in about 21 days... but who is counting ha ha...
