I'm going to laugh my *** off if they release this car and the ecu is locked down tighter than a nun's panties like all other recent toyota cars. What's the point of a stock Supra?

This has me a bit concerned about the supposed hybrid option of the supposed Supra. I wouldn't care if it was quiet, but the artificial engine sound enhancement really bugs me (as in the M2, M4 and now LC):

As usual, the Lexus is a beautiful car, but it is SOOOO heavy.

For $100K. That LC is a no go... At that money idvrather have something that growls. Give me an Alfa Giulia or a Jaguar Type R. Honestly.... I'd still pick a GTR, just upgrade to a titanium downpipe and straight pipe making it louder.

No thanks.

I like it but those chrome wheels are gross! Its like a mini LFA priced down. I have seen videos and that V8 sounds glorious.

I agree completely! Lexus wheels are the worst since they seem to try the most odd, chromed-out and complex designs.

A 10 speed AT??? Is it secretly a performance CVT or something? That's a lot of gears to play with for a ride to the grocery store...

Unfortunately cars today are sold based on amount of cameras and amount of gears in the AT. The more, the better. Most buyers no longer care about the engine, steering feel, etc.

I read about a survey recently sent to BMW drivers and the majority of them had no idea what engine (amount of cylinders and size) their car had!

Weren't they the car manufacturers who got rid of oil dipsticks?

If so, not being sure about the engine, or even where the engine is hiding under all the plastic shrouds, isn't that surprising...
