Woot, looks like the Supra is coming back in 2009. Here's the article:

This is going to be interesting with the Acura NSX, Nissan GTR, and Toyota Supra, all coming to market.

There's no mention of them actually using the Supra name though.

They should. It's got a good history. :)

Yep. If you can save gas, keep the air cleaner, AND have 400hp, that's ok in my books! :bana

Hmm... did that Tesla Roadster ever get to production?

Love that concept, but there is no way in hell that will be the actual car.

If that was the case, the Skyline GT-R concept would be on the road!!!

Will it effectively fill the void that was left by the old Supra? It's about time that Toyota starts to add sports cars to their lineup again.

its not the supra... they are just trying to be clever. a supra concept was released about a year ago and the project was later put on hold... this is what the actual supra concept looked like

That is a lot better looking than whatever that new car is IMHO...

At this time, there isnt a single car in the toyota lineup that even remotely interests me - I think that they are really aiming for the baby boomers who are starting to get on in years because they are probably the biggest niche in the industry :chuckle

I don't understand why they just dont keep a similar shape as the old 97's that supra was classic... and besides the fact... it has recognition all tuners know what a supra looks like.. so I mean.. keep the basis of the shape and update it a bit :) just make it a little more futuristic. just keep the similar idea just renew it a bit I guess.... the old shape was still classic!!!

Read my post above. This new car is not a Supra... so there's no need to make it shaped like one. :)
