The first real rumor of the New Supra I believe started in 2007 with the FT-HS. If you look closely at the design you will notice lots of elements that carried over to the FT-1 7 years later.

Both this and the FT-86 look great compared to the GT-86. I know all the regulations and stuff dictate changes, but the FT-1 and MKV are actually comparable and share highlights. The FT-86 and GT-86 are very different. I was disappointed way back when the 86 was unveiled. Hope a new 86 is in the works and the design is improved/changed.

FT-1 > MKV > FT-HS > FT-86 > Miata > GT-86

Are you referring to this FRS Concept back in 2013?

This one.

They do share the front bumper corners. It's mainly the wheel arches. Just originating from my personal tastes, I like the lines on the first concept than the second concept (what you showed) and the production car.

Um, no.

That thing looks like a Scion Tc with an FRS bumper. It has no curves at all. Not sure how you prefer that over the production 86/FRS.

I very much liked that as well. Was pretty peeved with the second...(well 3rd actually) concept, which looks a lot like the production car. The FRS concept (#4...or 5?!? lost track) was actually pretty sweet, but I knew from the get go the production car would never look like it.

This takes ceramic balls...:respect::respect:
You are not kidding! I'm curious how many people took the survey. Regardless, it just goes to show you how loved the mkiv is. It's also a pretty good gut shot to Toyota :rofl:

Willing to bet Toyota will wipe it's tears with $100 bills all the way to the bank. Then laugh right back at all the haters who switch up and try to jump on the bandwagon when the MkV inevitably becomes a legendary tuning platform.
