I guess you missed the press event in Spain were Toyota stated the car will be under 1500kg....Do we have actual evidence that it is 1500 kg.
The answer is .... no
I took that with a grain of salt.I guess you missed the press event in Spain were Toyota stated the car will be under 1500kg....
That was from Toyota themselves. "More than 300hp, 0-60 in under 5 seconds, and under 1,500kg" was what Toyota told everyone during the press drive.I took that with a grain of salt.
You guys are fine with 3300 lb now but months ago people had a hard on for 2900lbs as reported by someone.
Make up your mind.
Also, dont believe the press since they were not given actual specs from toyota.
So.. Where is this document or stat sheet TOYOTA released saying it is under 1500kg?
Weird, why would Motor Trend post this? Must be a mistake....Finally, we were told the car would be "under 1,500 kilograms" (3,307 pounds) and Toyota is aiming for 50/50 weight distribution.
They said that during the spain test driveshttps://www.motortrend.com/news/2020-toyota-supra-prototype-review/

google =/=I'm lost, Google says 1500kg = 3,306.9lbs.
If you keep saying it's 3400lbs,people will get confusedDo we have actual evidence that it is 1500 kg.
The answer is .... no
Yup!... and the plot thickens.
@PerformanceSound, we were just discussing this. it doesn't confirm our thinking per se, but the fact that separate heads are being utilized definitely adds some credence.
*GASP*Yup!
....I also heard some more interesting news from my little bird friend. News that (if true) will make me seriously consider a MKV Supra. Yes, you heard it right....will make me consider a MKV Supra. I need to be careful about divulging too much info, as I need to respect his confidentiality. I will ask him if I can talk about it on this forum this weekend.
Is the news tied in with Toyota shipping a bunch of chassis’ to japan?Yup!
