Any word on the powertrain?? I personally think it'll have some sort of tuned 1UZ-FE (i.e.: GS430) motor. I'm not really buying the 'V10-500hp' rumors.

I would say above $100k if it has a turbo and lightweight materials.

I'm guessing it will be about the same price point as the Supra Turbo when it came out. What that number is, I have no idea .

In reference to the next Supra. I have read that it will be selling in the low $40K's. One of the reasons of the demise of the old supra was that it was too expensive.

This is definitely the next Supra and it is coming to compete with the 350Z and it will be priced similarly - so it's all good

Yep, fast cars are back in style. SUV's were the reason why we ALMOST lost all the good sports cars.

These pics look starkly different from the ones first posted. The first ones have much sharper creases and these subsequent ones show a car that is much more more rounded off. I about these!!

I hope they change that name. It's just too confusing when you say TXS and TSX.

I believe this could be my next car. Looks pretty decent. If they load it up with navi, xenon, targa top and bluetooth, it will rock.

I'm pretty sure they will along with backup camera, laser cruise control, and I remember reading something about Toyota's next super car will be hybrid, not sure if this is the one.

Allot of cars will be hybrid since Honda will have the Accord as a hybrid as well.

I may have to retract my earlier statement about buying this car. The latest C&D had some pics and said it could be a $100k+ car. Oh well.
