There won't be a $100k Supra....at least not in the near future. The goal is lightweight, rigid, and decent power. Hybrid system will put a dent on the weight. BTW, Toyota is fully aware that "Supra" is synonymous with "Inline six".....that is their main selling point for the brand.

Toyota is also ramping up carbon fiber production (as I’ve mentioned in the past). We now at least know it’s true, because the GR Corolla looks like is getting close to 50% carbon panels. I believe there a few other “future” models getting carbon parts.

Stocks and currency trading. Keep your 9-5 for benefits (health insurance, 401k, etc…) and trade stocks on the side. You also get the benefit of having income security for banks to give you money for other ventures.

??? Let’s wait and see what the production version looks like shall we?

Not trying to sound like a MKIV fanboy, but it looks like a successor to the MKIV. So maybe what I was told a while was true afterall, that they are indeed taking queues from the MKIV??? Nonetheless, a badass whip!

I’m not complaining about anything…not sure why you tagged my comment. My point was that for these cars (Supra, Z, etc…) to exist for “us”, much more expensive engineering efforts need to take place (GTR, LFA, etc…). I am not complaining about the multi-tiered financial class of people in...

Think of the process of making these kinds of cars something like Robin Hood...."steal from rich to give to the poor." Not calling anyone poor, but you get the idea... The manufacturers sell these vehicles (i.e., LFA, LFR, etc...) to get "investors" aka rich people who buy them and fund the...

Some reputable GM folks have had quite a bit to say about the potential repairs (level or work required) of the C8 ZR-1. This isn't off....based on what has been communicated on various social media outlets by the GM engineers, the ZR-1 has almost every component crammed underneath every inch...

3.3\2=1.65 Which came first, the chicken or the egg? :hmm:

So, remember I said there was heavy focus on weight and rigidity? I “believe” they are focusing on chassis weight for a possible 4cyl variant (like the current A90), and the “big boy” heavier variant will come later hence the focus on chassis rigidity for that variant. Also, there should be...

Yeah, that is the part I still don't have any information on. My guess is it is one of the "future" sports models that Akio presented a while back. Remember, there were two sports cars.....one looked like what could be the next "LFA" and the other I don't know what it was anticipated to...

It’s tough for someone to leak this kind of info because it’s just not fair to the manufacturers. I am sure a few prominent YouTubers had been given detailed information about other models (like the GTD Mustang or ZR-1 Corvette) before launch, and only hinted at small details during its...

It's got that 99' Lexus SC vibe.

The LC will be a good base because it has provisions for a hybrid setup and the front section of the car is long enough to accommodate an inline type engine. Plus, they have all the tooling in place to ramp up production quickly. However, like I said before, key focus is weight and...

The Lexus "LFR" and new Supra will not be sharing underpinnings. Damn NHTSA FMVSS compliance :mad:.

I too thought about that, who is actually craving a FWD sports car in todays generation? The same chassis and AWD setup from the GR Corolla is my guess….but with only 2 doors (4 seats).

Let’s not pull a Joy Behar and start spreading misinformation for the sake of a narrative. I’ve consistently said the updates would be minor—no massive changes like a new engine—because Toyota isn’t looking to jack up prices in this economy. The B58 is already one of the best engines out there...

Excellent! You know this now means we need a forum member with the username “ToyotaAF” right?

“…those who regret decisions (like a questionable purchase) can commiserate together. Regret loves company.”

Wow, what a way to make a point…real poetic. Nothing says ‘I’m here to have a mature discussion’ like calling someone an idiot and throwing a tantrum. Please, tell us more about these ‘actual news’ insights delivered with such grace.
