That's completely crap then, if this new supra is overpriced with only 340hp and no manual offered Toyota can keep their hyped up sports car then. At least GM is still offering a manual with 7speeds even with their 600hp z06.

If Toyota does produce a new body style Toyota Supra it will not be priced so the average person can afford it which is a good thing and production numbers will be limited also. Hopefully Toyota can have a turbo powerplant in the Toyota Supra.

That's not in question. It's been confirmed that it's using a BMW turbo inline 6. That's been confirmed for months, if not years.

I have seen no confirmed production specs whatsoever. Every morning the first thing I do is a search on "toyota supra". Please provide this information because I have been dying to see it.

Then you've undoubtedly seen this. Not a concrete release from Toyota, but pretty solid info from a BMW leak. If you're waiting for something official from Toyota, you'll have to wait until the car is in showrooms.

As long as it is a DCT then I am in. I enjoyed the quick and manual shifting of the BMW M240i's automatic transmission, so I will look forward to the F1 style shifting of DCT. Nowadays I see a manual transmission a tantamount to having a crank starter instead of an electric one. If you want performance and longevity, you wan a DCT.
