This looks rather tasty.

Much better than the awful new IS, GS, LS

Shame it\'s just some random guys photoshop guesswork (looks like a cross between GT86 and the LFA?)

Only issue I can see with a new supra is that it would most likely not compare to the mk4.

At the time of the mk4 the supra was the ultimate pinnacle of what toyota could put into a car. An amazing engine, good suspension and a great gearbox and probably the best aero they could come up with at the time. Who knows what it cost to develop, a lot I would say.

Fast forward to today and the LFA is the pinnacle of toyota/lexus cars and we all know how much that cost to develop and what it costs to buy.

What I am getting at is that in 1994 the supra was toyotas supercar and they could afford to go all out on it because they had nothing higher. Now that is not the case, so I wonder if any new supra would suffer because of the need for the LFA to be the top dog.

Any new supra would have to be below the LFA in performance terms and I think that could make it difficult for the image of the supra in terms of what it once was in the 1990\'s and what it would have to be now.

Not necessarily so...

The LFA was a limited production high-tech showcase.

The next Supra can productionize the tech.

Porsche do it all the time.

Remember the Porsche 959 ?

Subsequent production 911 Turbos used the same tech and were even more powerful and faster.

;D
