The LFA, and the ISF were compelling vehicles to many though the LFA was seriously overpriced. Then can the FRS, the RC and RCF. Just because you haven't been able to afford anything substantial they produced didn't mean they were out. It means they were worthless too to poorer people. The frs despite its feeble engine still a sports car. Now finally they are producing something in our price range and interest I'm sure the supra will start low and end high.

I wouldn't knock the 86/BRZ. It may not have huge numbers when it comes to HP, but I rode in a BRZ for a track session, and in the curves the thing was amazing. The C6 Z06 behind us was able to catch up on the straights, but was hapless when the corners came up. Of course the driver was an instructor, so that is 90% of the difference there.
I am dying to see the final production Supra so I can start figuring out which custom wheels will look the best on it. |

For what it is, I do appreciate it a lot, and glad that it exists like you. Let's hope that Toyota isn't conservative when it comes to the Supra's engine options like they were with the BRZ/FRS.

Interesting the test car is running the Lexus F sport wheels.
And the rear end looks to be a far cry from the white concept car...darn it

IF this rendering looks anything like the production version, then it does look like a toned down FT-1. Looks great!
