It would possibly qualify as a kei-car and compete with the Honda S660. Toyota previewed the hybrid MR2 a few years back but did not release any further update since then. They keep a lot of secrets. Better if we would see a combination of MR2 and S-FR, or better if both. But both are different...
I guess, in any way, Toyota’s 3rd sports car, as well as the 2nd-generation 86, will be electrified, somehow. Toyota mentioned that the Supra may be their last non-electrified present for enthusiasts. Possibly some sort of hybrid power, or electric boost are in the cards for Toyota’s mini sports...
Craving for more haha :) I get you. At times I’m also like that. Of course we always ask for more and more. Even when the best is already there, we wanted something better than the best. It’s not bad at all. Just “moving forward”, Toyota’s slogan.:bump:If we want more and more stuff in the car...
S-FR sounds interesting. Toyota had already debuted a concept version a few years back. Though the S-FR sounds something like the FR-S, which was the previous name of the 86. There was no history with the S-FR. If the 86 got its name from AE86, and Supra from previous Supras, I believe Toyota...
If the 86 is the middle of the 3 sports car brothers, then the Supra is the top, the 3rd brother is probably going to be at the bottom, which means least expensive. In my opinion, Toyota is going to revive the MR2, probably in a tie-up with Mazda. It should be cheaper than $27,000.
Just relax, take a deep breath, and wait for the official reveal. Japanese are known for these tactics, including Toyota. Tada won’t give out all details just yet; but he’s starting to be more open, one step at a time, lately. Soon he will reveal everything, just like what he did with the 86...
I agree. Just guessing. Sensors look more sensible. Besides, most sports cars don’t have stock fog lights from the factory. But of course, it would be better to have fog lights IMO.
Tada mentioned the vents on the headlights only will be removable. He said the one on the hood, and the other one along the rear fender are for aerodynamic purposes. But are they fake, or removable as well?
The Supra was spotted recently even after the prototype was launched. I believe Toyota wants to make sure that enthusiasts won’t be disappointed. It took them 7 years to complete this project. Usually, sports car development cycle only take around 3-5 years. So I do hope that Toyota won’t...
Personally, I think Toyota should price the Supra right, which is important, in order to attract buyers. 1st is because they have to convince die-hard enthusiasts of the previous Supras first. If the Mk1-Mk4 Supra enthusiasts will not like the new product, then probably Toyota will have to...
When the Supra is going on sale soon, what are they going to badge it as? Will it be Toyota or GR? Personally, I’m ok with them calling the trim levels like basic Supra, Supra GR, Supra GR Sport, and Supra GRMN, as long as it’s under Toyota. Calling the cars like GR Supra, GR Supra Sport and so...
Toyota is jack-of-all-trades and master of many. They are slowly but surely injecting the right amount of funness back into their cars. They probably reviewed their history and reapplied all the winning formulas. It just makes it a win-win situation for us enthusiasts and them.
Toyota was used to be known as a sporty automaker. But recently, more than 10 years already, they have cemented themselves for making quality, reliable, affordable cars. Fun factor is definitely missing. Now they want to inject the funness into their cars. Other automakers like Ford, Chevrolet...
Knowing that the BMW B58 engine will most likely be used in the Supra, and it doesn’t have a dip stick to check oil level; and instead use electronic sensors. Do you think a dip stick will make it to the Supra?
