New Toyota Supra
I know this is a G35 forum, but I have a question on a toyota. haha. I was talking with my co worker the other day and he told me toyota is coming out with a new supra with over 300hp and they're getting rid of the celica cause of that. Is it true? Does anyone know where to find pics or know any specs and pricing?
Re: New Toyota Supra
heard about it but not soon, plus why would they get rid of the celica its not even going to be close to the price range of the supra they always had the celica when the supra was out. I don't think your co worker knows what hes talking about.

Re: New Toyota Supra
you guys go it backwards no more supra per toyota motors they will not get into a horsepower war with any of the other car makers. at least that was the last i heard about march of this year. they are building towards the scion brand where they are producing a car that will rival their celica model. this was all over the boards back around january - march.

Re: New Toyota Supra
Toyota needs a RWD sports car. Their cars are soooooo boring; they are appliances. At a recent auto show, they unveiled a hybrid called the Volta that was styled by an Italian firm -- Italdesign I think. It looked good! That may be the next 'Supra'.

Re: New Toyota Supra
No plans for a Supra. None. Toyota could've done it years ago (for relatively little cost) merely by basing a Supra Mark 5 model off of either the IS300 or SC430 platform.
Lexus is coming out with a 'GT' hybrid line based off of their existing models. But that's not going to include any "Supra-like" car.
Celica should die soon because the new TC essentially replaces it.
Toyota doesn't need a Supra anyway; their aim was to break into the pickup truck market here in the US, and they've done very well at that.

Re: New Toyota Supra
go to motortrend.com future vehicles. it says they're redesigning the celica and is300. is300 will offer a new coupe model and optional v8 engine. no word of supra or 3000gt yet.

Re: New Toyota Supra
I'd expect to see an IS430 coupe come out before a new Supra. Consider that Toyota already has way too many models in it's lineup and that Infiniti is gaining big time on the Lexus's market share.
The SC430 is overstyled, underpriced and underperforms. Lets face it, it's a ladies car. If anyone needs to have a more competitive sports coupe it's Lexus. Yeah, Toyota is kinda bland right now, but it doesn't seem to be affecting its sales.

"they are building towards the scion brand where they are producing a car that will rival their celica model."
I believe it is called the scion Tc.
Nice looking car, and starts at $16,5.

Re: New Toyota Supra
I would say that, toyota doesn't release any sort of info on the Supra until a few days or weeks before it comes out, so stop whining. Toyota likes to play it in more of a surprise.
