Some guy's Photoshop effort on what he thought the new Supra would look like. The new Supra is still a few years away. There is another thread in this section with some spy shots if the apparent new one in Nurburgring.

I hope it looks really good but lets face it the JDM capping on local engine outputs is not going to let them make it a fire breather...well not from the factory anyway...speculation is a V8 and 2 V6's..non turbo..poo...

The JDM power capping has officially been dropped in Japan, the 280PS limit is no more. A few cars were released that ignored this limit anway and had over 300Ps but were officially advertised at 280ps by the maker.
My money is still on a V-10 3.5 litre NA motor in the new Supra with a debut at the Japan Motor Show in November 2005, and hopefully on sale here in OZ by March of 2006.
Hey - dreams are free !

I've seen that same photo with comments like, "the new sprinter", "the new Celica", "the new supra" for 3 or 4 years now. still haven't seen anything like it in real life ()except the ford cougar)

Came across this article in JapanToday a couple of days ago about the Tokyo 2004 motorshow, thought it might be interesting.

Suggests that the new Supra may be a hybrid. Also has a pic
Personally i think its a pretty cool idea, Supra hybrid, the only way that sort of technology is going to become popular is if its used in sportscars like this that people really want to own.
Also good for Toyota to be leading the field in this.
