If it has Mcpherson type front struts like the Zn6, it can go back to the shed the Mk4 supra died in.

It looks like you guys are letting some purported leaks on some 3rd rate auto news sites override your logic and reason.
1) The "news" is BS 2) Toyota could not sell it. I am 90% certain I will buy the new Supra/FT-1 (if that is what it is called), but having a BMW engine is a certain deal-breaker. 3) The 86 has a Toyota engine even though it was co-developed by Subaru. If Toyota were to use another companies engine, then it would be Subaru. 4) Correct me if I am wrong, but Toyota (or Lexus) has never used another manufacturer's engine. |

The 86/FRS has a Subaru designed and built engine (FA20). It does use the Toyota DI fuel system but it is not a Toyota engine. In Toyota applications, it carries a Toyota engine code but that doesn't make it Toyota designed engine. The whole architecture of it screams Subaru as it's the EJ replacement. This Supra would probably be the second Toyota car using a non-Toyota designed engine that I'm aware of. |

I just hope they don't mass produce the 2018 Toyota Supra. This vehicle will be priced out of the average customers budget and price range. Something tells me it will be in the Nissan GTR price range. I don't like how BMW helped design this vehicle it will not be the same as the older model Toyota Supra. I am hoping that they have turbocharged platform on this vehicle.
