https://newsroom.toyota.eu/the-legend-returns-2/ Toyota’s hotly anticipated new Toyota Supra sports car to make its public debut in prototype form at the world-famous Goodwood Festival of speed in the UK Car will make daily runs on the festival’s hill course (July 12, 13, 14 and 15), driven by...

Yeah, but the part about the 599 copying it....

Ok, I'm going to come clean and say that I was joking, and I sincerely hope you'll do the same.

Look at the MKIV for example. Terrible looking car.

True. I'm doubtful they would have done anything close to the 2000GT without the basic idea from Yamaha, but they did do a good job of refining it. Which may be similar to the Z4 / Supra.

There's probably nothing to back it up, but I love the image they show there. Looks like it could be a shared platform with the Miata RF, which would be hilarious to add another shared sports car to the lineup, but I really hope they do this one on their own, or at least have a Toyota engine in it.

The 2000GT was designed for Nissan by Yamaha. If that's your only hope for Toyota's design success I think you're out of luck.

Mazda's current design language doesn't play well into the rebirth of the sleekness of the RX7, mainly with that front end. I still want it to happen though.

As far as I can tell, the M57 has been around for 20 years, but only aluminum since 2006. They got him going back in time to steal iron M57s off the assembly line?

Yeah, it wouldn't make sense for them IMO. Would be interesting to see a few 800hp Z4s popping up though.

This is what I mean when I say that I think Toyota is targeting the people who don't really know cars, but want a sports car to feel good about themselves or whatever their reasoning is. They know there's a significant market base there that will buy the car, so they add the bloated features...

I saw that this morning too and thought it was quite on point, but I don't think marketing will be swayed that easily. No matter what they do, the car will sell. Will the 2% of their enthusiast customer base buy them? Maybe not, but people who want to seem like they're cool sports car drivers...

I'm sorry, but if you're looking for something along the lines of an Exige, you're not going to find it. Get the Exige.

I'm no Nascar expert, but from my 5 minutes of research I think the Camry will still run in the main Cup series at the top level. I believe the Xfinity series is for drivers that haven't worked their way up the ladder or something. So the Supra will run Xfinity and the Camry in Cup. I think...

I mean realistically, if they've designed a strong engine like it sounds like they have, the difference in 350hp and 400hp could be all in the software. Not that they should give out free horsepower, but if they wanted to blow away the competition at $55k, they probably could.

Guess not now! I had heard Fall previously, but looks like April.

A70

Fall 2019.

I don't believe that's accurate.

Zero mention of the Supra; it's not relevant. :p
