It is the GR Supra Racing concept. With complementary big wang. No confirmation on whether or not they will be racing it in competition yet.
Ok thanks...exciting to get confirmation from USA Toyota we will finally see it, or a close concept, at Geneva...it has been a long journey...

Expect to only see the racing version at the Geneva Motor Show

Yesterday, we reported that an early copy of the Japanese magazine Best Car may have leaked details of the new Toyota Supra before its official debut. We’ve already seen our fair share of lightly camouflaged Supra prototypes, including the new spy shot above, so when Toyota finally reveals the new car, the design won’t be much of a surprise. But despite Toyota’s official teaser suggesting the reveal will be in a few weeks, it may be a little more complicated than that.

According to translations sent in by several readers (and one editor’s mother), Toyota only plans to show off a GTE-class racing version of the Supra at the Geneva Motor Show. The road car, on the other hand, won’t debut until the New York auto show at the end of next month. This, of course, depends entirely on Best Car‘s information being accurate, but SupraMKV forum staff seem to believe it is.

For fans anxious to see the new Supra’s interior, which engines and transmissions will be available, and potentially even a few performance statistics, this news probably comes as a disappointment. Sure, the race car will probably look a lot like the road-going Supra, but the interior will likely be stripped, and power output could be significantly different. If you want an idea of how the Supra road car will look, check out the spy shot above, provided by SupraMKV, which appears to show a Supra prototype wearing production-spec wheels.

Even if we do have to wait a little longer to see it in production trim, after more than 15 years of waiting, the new Supra is finally almost here, and that’s definitely worth getting excited about.

I haven't expected a production car to be at Geneva, but the more that's shown the more exciting it is...But will it be worth selling the MKIV for?

No they didnt, and while I am sure the race version is very interesting/cool/special most of us I are interested in the street version...they have teased for too long already...

The NY show being March 30-April 8 is too far away...
