Supra Might Be Back!!!!

Supra: Toyota's monstrous bank account, success in CART racing and entry into Formula One should be incentive enough to create a supercar successor to the Supra. Reports of a 4.3-liter V-8 shoehorned into a 2+2 coupe to do battle with the Nissan Z and Mazda RX-8 are circulating. If produced, the introduction could coincide with Toyota's entry into Formula One in spring 2003.

I hope so. I want an affordable Supra. There's too many rumors going around right now to know what Toyota's really planning. I also hope they keep the twin-turbo setup, it's so much cheaper to mod and make into an extremely fast ride.

According to Car n Driver, the 4000GT or 5000GT or whatever and the new Supra are supposed to be seperate cars. The Supercar will be running up against the likes of Ferrari and Porsche and such (eventhough some of us feel that the supra does a good job of doin that already). They were rumored at a v10, but now rumors are it's gonna be a mid-engine v12 ...
