then if its N/A it might not be as mod friendly. im sure it will be strong enough, but it wont be like a turbo, evo for example, where a full catless exhaust costs you a grand and is good for 30HP. it better not be like an audi or bimmer. throw a full exhaust on those and you bag 5HP. ghey.

 

screw toyota...they abandoned us...they make quality cars but why buy a camry or corolla when you can get an accord or civic for 3k cheaper. the used supra's are insane expensive for a car that is front end heavy and has aftermarket parts that are $$$ if I wanted to build a drag car , I'd buy a mustang/camaro and save huge $$$

 

I agree. It needs a turbo engine. The appeal is the ability to modify this car.

 

I would like to see this car as a turbo. Most people who buy Supra's want to modify them. They should sell to thier orginal market. And just like BMW they could very easily get very decent gas milage out of a turbo.

 

I don't see why they are competing against the 350Z. They should be going for the GT-R that is coming soon.

 

+1^^^^

 

I'll believe it when I see it =)

 

If it dont have turbo ar AWD then its not even worth it.

 

Haha....not everything will come with AWD....but not having a turbo does suck...

 

... wishful thinking.

It will never happen... keep dreaming kiddies.

 

nobody is dreaming were just saying that if it does happen they better make it worthwhile, or it will flop. i dont want to see a supra remake turn out like the rx8 and be an underpowered chick car.

 

i dont get how they can stop production of a car and then come back years later with a completely different car and call it the same thing

 

Well they get copyrights on the cars name, same reason ford cant come out with a camaro. and the current supra following will probably buy the new car. i think it would be badass to own a 2008 supra and a 1998 supra

 

The stats they are quoting will most certainly make it worth while. I wonder how many people thought the new Z would flop without a turbo.

 

From a business side, I see it as a perfect combination. By making the car lighter than the Z and with more HP in a NA engine, you are going to get an nice balance of performance, reliability and cost in one sports car package.

Only the hardcore are after the twin turbo deal. Would I like to see it with turbos? Yes, but the cost will push the car from the 30k+ to the 45-50k or so. I can see it being that expensive. Then we will all be *****ing about the price.

The Supra of past was competing with the GTR, but I think in todays market of the Z is a good target. The Z itself caters to casual sports drivers to enthusisists. It can cover the market segment while attracting all kinds of buyers.

In 2009 I will be looking into the GTR. But all price points make it to be over 60-70k. I would like the Supra as a sport gt coupe with a bit of refinement with decent hp to weight ratio. Even if it would be slower than my EVO when I am done, I would still drive it for the hell of it!
