More pictures leaked, I like the rear quarter view as it reminds me of the FD3S which attracts me to the new supra.

I have to agree with Rob on this one.

Base 3.0 six cylinder: $49,990

Premium 3.0 six cylinder: $53,990

Launch edition 3.0 six cylinder: $55,250

This is what I expected in terms of price. Wondering what that launch edition will bring?

I'm guessing later on once it's in production we'll see the 4 cylinder. I'm guessing that will start at $40k?

If the Z were to come out? I'd expect similar pricing.

Here's the real deal photos. They're claiming 0-60 in 4.1 seconds. That's a second faster than the Z with the same power. Though some of us can extract the Z out to 4.6 seconds.

I was expecting a higher top speed than 155mph. That's so 2008. Lol. I think it's pretty sharp.

The proof is in the drive. I'm gonna wait for certain you tube reviews cuz they are more honest than the magazine's. After all ... The magazine's all said the FRS was the second coming. It was the you tubers that said. It drives nice. But is mad slow

my take:

155 is the usual limit of all cars in the US aside from high end cars where you can pay for unlock tuning from factory.

4.1 is untested by magazines and a manufacturer number. curious if it has launch control as well. the 8 speed tranny may play into this as well. it could be a much better unit (most likely) than the Z. the real error is they didnt give it the BMW DCT.

look decent but idk if its the photos but it looks small or like smashed up.

the A80 just has that presence when you see it.

If they didn't give it the Supra badge, I think it'd have way better reception.

The Supra badge just has way too much of a reputation to ever live up to it because people have had decades to modify Supras to super car levels by throwing unreal amounts of money at them. From the factory for anyone that remembers, they were really tame and kinda fat, especially for the year. They were GT cars.

The LC500 is more of a "Supra" than this is, in my opinion. It's weird to me they didn't shave that down to put the badge on and sell for $65k, which is what the Supra roughly sold for originally when taking inflation into account.

cool in red but I'm still good with the Z. The 2 seater formula is classic, so it takes a lot of money to beat a Z or any 2 seaters that stick with the format

Honestly it's not the worst looking but it reminds me too much of a BRZ only Lexus style. I'd rather have a 370Z

This. It wasn't until the late '90s / early 2000s that the "OMG Supra!!!!!" really kicked in. When they were still available new at the dealer, they were heavy and expensive.

Also, this should really respond well to mods. That BMW I6TT loves bolt ons and a tune.

Funny, when I saw it reminded me too much of the Z4.....
Just will have to see what happens and the reviews
