Plans for Toyota to introduce a replacement for its Supra sports car are gathering pace, according to sources. The rendering above is an indication of what such a twenty-first-century Supra might look like, but we'll all just have to wait until this October's Tokyo motor show for the real thing (or a show concept at the very least).
Due on sale in 2004 and based on the upcoming second-generation Lexus IS platform, the new coupe (which might get a new name) is said to be a modern interpretation of Toyota's classic 2000GT of the 1960s. Engines are set to be 3.0- and 3.5-liter normally aspirated V6s matched to a six-speed close-ration transmission.
The curvy, compact, all-new sports coupe is expected to be a direct competitor to the Nissan 350Z. The previous Supra was last sold here in the 1998 model year, by which time it, like the last-generation Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo, had suffered dwindling sales as a result of high sticker prices and spiraling insurance costs. As Nissan has done with the 350Z, Toyota wisely will avoid expensive and complex twin-turbo engines for the new Supra, which should allow for asking prices in the $30,000 range.

that looks like someone that is gay would drive
Damnit!!!!! i wish they would keep the bullet proof inline 6 twin turbo engine.:nonono:
If they lost the tacky chrome effect wheel wells it might not be as bad.
:xpl:
Looks like the Celica.
Thats exactly what I was thinking. Looks like a mid to late 90's celica.
NA 6 might not be bad, yamaha got 220hp from one 14yrs ago i wouldnt be amazed if toyota can get around 380 w/ the right tooling, gearing, pcm, ect...
380 hp out of a n/a 3.5 street car out of the factory? maybe 280 but not 380, you will have to rev the shit outta it = big cams
and 220 aint shit compared to whats out these days.
look at the 350's vettes, even the mustang gt's. The supra is supposed to be a world class sports car not a car that gets waxed by a 23k gt or wrx.

It could be that or a beefed up Celica body!! ha ha :kaboom:
I agree, It might just be to throw people off. Toyota is paying alot of attention to the Truck and SUV market right now.
Looks like a hunk of shit...typical Toyota. lol
