    5th Gen. Toyota Supra

    http://www.lextreme.com/supra.html

    It's not going to be an inline 6 with TT. But will be a V8 that borrowed from Lexus.

    I think the front looks horrible but every else seems to look good.

    This month's Motor Trend has an article on it too. Because of the Nissan Z success, Toyota wants to play too. They hope the Supra would be a big success as well. Mitsubishi is introducing it's version of a 3.8 Eclipse with 263 hp.

            YES! Looked oddly familiar to me too. Now I know why.

                    It would be nice to see a Japanese car maker using a V8 for their sporty car. Maybe then ricers will come to know the power of 8.

                      330 hp isnt even in the RANGE of the new C6 Z06 or the Ford GT. Its just not gonna be the same...If the F-body comes back, i hope its not ruined..... :rolleyes:

                          Why would they have horsepower figures that high, when they're going after the 350Z?

                            It looks like the bastard love child of a Viper and an Aston Martin.

                              The Fbody will never come back. Camaro, possibly, but it's looking grim for even that.

                              I think it looks like a C6 from the side profile.
