Whenever I think of Chrome oem stockers all I can picture is some Miami Vice theme song playing with some dude in a Hawaiian T shirt driving on a cocaine white Supra with gold badges. Yeah thats right the theme song is stuck in your head now... MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

But they also tweeted this MR2

So two Supra Tweets and one MR2 from Toyota..

I would also like to see a new MR-2!

New MR-2 but with K20 power that would be the ultimate. Who's thinking the launch the supra and mr-2 at the same time. they have been dropping clues today

Thanks Supraman, this is very encouraging....interesting though they just sent a Tweet and a picture (beautiful picture) but no words or comments...teaser?

Looks like a narrowbody 88-90 GA70 from Japan. Thanks for lying to me, Toyota Europe.

March 28 and 29.

Some manufacturers like to do a pre-show launch, so maybe 26th, 27th?

Hopefully in any event, by the end of March.

Thank you sir!

The comments overall seems a little quiet for now...I guess we have made our thoughts known and all are waiting for Tuesday, However after the reveal I think this forum will go crazy...admins be ready...ha ha...

I went to the future 1 week from now and teleported 4500 miles to switzerland
jk

From what I've collected from all over the interwebz and some of my own predictions (in bold in case you don't trust me):
It'll be running forced induction (1 or 2 turbos) on a 6-cylinder (maybe an inline-6, but probably not) interlaced with a KERS system.
Pump about 400 bhp and 390 lb-ft of torque (estimated from Toyota's other V-6's)
Cost $45-50k at base price, with options pushing that over $60k (if I know Toyota correctly lol)
Front-engine, RWD drivetrain setup.
Paddle shifters and 7 gears on a dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
Have a medium-sized active rear wing.
Wear a front end more rounded than the FT-1 concept's (homage to the MKIV).
Have a good amount of weight-saving, so expect carbon fibre and Alcantara.
Maybe a targa top? Unlikely, though.
This is an expensive modern Toyota, so there's a touchscreen, blind spot monitoring, an HUD, and a backup camera.
Nifty touches like a dragster-style LED strip for shifting on the top of the steering wheel.
A voice control system co-developed with Amazon Alexa. (This is true, but not sure if will be on the Supra.)

Hope you like this little overview of what might come!
And thanks for liking my post!
