It's just the supra has been I6 since day 1. Why change that now ? Even so, an n/a V8 with a racing cam ... and the mkIV is nothing like the mkIII, which does resemble the mkII ... but the nose is way to euro ... ferrari/skyline taillights ... compact ...
PS the first two pics Admin posted ? The white car and the green colored concept art in the one below it are the same car. That's significant

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast. Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire. I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed. Last edited by lethalwithasupra; 04-06-2006 at 10:43 AM. |

Well.. look at the later model GS300's. They have the 2JZ-GE motors in them. Thats the thing about toyota... They use the same powertrains from one model to the next.. If it fits then use it they say . Maybe they will hop the motor up a bit from the SC but i doubt it..

New Supra
Definitely looks like a 350Z knock-off. I'm not sayin it looks bad, just not too original. My first car was a 69 Camaro (man, do I wish I still had that car), and I see chevy is coming out (probably 2007) with a new Camaro. Saw pics and it is very much inspired by the 67-69 Camaro line. Maybe Toyota shoulda went that route, you know, the retro-look. Just my 2-cents.
