The tosser photograph published according to the above announcement is only a part of the rear wing and the roof seen from the left rear.

 However, from the distinctive roof shape, you can see that the "Best car" of this journal is the same as the one I grasped in advance.

 Moreover, from the wording of the release "modern version racing concept suggesting the revival of Toyota's iconic sports car"

· The car name is still "SUPRA"

· It is "GRMN" version that will be exhibited in Geneva this time

· To be marketed soon

 The above three points are confirmed.

 For more detailed information on the next-generation SUPRA, please refer to "Best Car 3/10" currently on sale so please do not hesitate to contact us.

 We will release it on our website as soon as information is entered.

I don't understand why Toyota decided to show the race version first and the real customers version later.

But maybe i'm wrong and they really show a close production concept @Geneva

tbf it allows them to build more hype and to test the waters at the same time without revealing all theirs cards.

Yep, it's not giving away anywhere near as much concrete engineering, and they also have to string you along until the car is actually available to buy.

I wonder whether this concept could be a race (GT3?) concept, or perhaps, a road-racer special - like the 911 GT3RS? Perhaps a hint at the GRMN version?

Unveiling race car first - they won't have to detail power outputs for the production cars since that's still probably being worked on.
Other thing is interior won't be unveiled either - that's stringing us along.

We should start taking bets on what the hero colour will be, for the production cars.
