toyota FT-1 concept (possibly next Supra)

TheGreatOne

I definitely don't hate it....makes you want to take a second look.

If its actually in the $70-80K range and has small production numbers we could be looking at something impressive here, otherwise if its 100K + well meh....not in my budget lol

Those mirrors are begging to be snapped off.

A little too techie on the interior but I don't know what all the buttons do so It could just be the looks.
Overall I like it though. I won't go trading in my Z for it, but I would drive one for sure.
It is sexy.

Any car manufacturer can make a hot concept. Production is a whole other issue.

Not holding my breath on Toyota is back!!!!

In concept form. The lfa was supposed to be a $150k. Then when it went into production... $375k. And it has an is250 interior at that price. Toyota still has much to prove.

I read that the Toyota CEO (who is himself a race car driver) drove the concept car on Gran Turismo 6, which is apparently where the concept came from. When he beat his own Personal best on fuji speedway (in an LFA) with the video game, he OK'd production of the concept. Word is the car doesn't even have an engine in it, it is just a shell.
I guess it was thrown out there, and accomplished its main purpose.....Getting people to say "Toyota"

In this case I'm glad concepts never make it off the production line with the same look. To speak so highly of the Supra and how much it was thought of during the design breaks my heart a little.

That car is timeless and so iconic that seeing this with its named mentioned so much sucks to me. It isn't how I picture a modern Supra at all. Had they just released it as a ground up new sports car I may not feel as odd about it.

Setting those feelings aside I can say I'm happy to see how passionate the designers are about getting a new Toyota sports car on the market.

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man. :-)

Maybe it's just me, but I never knew the 4th gen Supra to be a design that was fawned over as a "classic" - to my eyes it was a more muscular 5th gen Celica...a typically conservative Toyota design with a huge wing, although not unattractive. What made it legendary was its performance and mod-ability, and some rose-tinted nostalgia.

Aside from some of the obvious concept car touches, I'd buy this in a heartbeat, no matter what they call it!
