I know, I know, there is a polarized argument about the next Supra. Some think that its more likely that the next Toyota supercar will be a Lexus, others are convinced of the Supra's rebirth. Well, a Japanese magazine just came out with some startling photos. Is this the 2008 Toyota Supra? 5.0L V8? Hardtop convertible? We can only dream!

That car looks amazing.

I just noticed that under the green photo they have four panels illustrating the SC430 droptop, hmmm... they must be saying that it will work similarly.

GODLESS

front looks funny, but side and rear are nicely design. This might be the next lexus SC500?

Yeah.. the tC will def get traded in if this bad boy makes production

The sides look very 350Z ish. I like the v8 as well I hope thats what it will look like when it comes out.
Flawless

nice looking car to bad it will cost to mutch and probly not make as mutch power as the 2jz's can but then again some one did pull 825hp out of a s2k so i guess any thing is posible

tC9o9

i want it!!!!!

Reminds me of the 06 Vette up front.

Next Supra will be a hybrid.
Toyota North America has already had leaks about that. Should be an 08 or 09 model.
Just about time to trade then

jct

why oh why does it have to v-8 should be a 3.5 inline 6

but oh well

atodak

Inline 6 was too heavy and we already know toyota has one of the best v8's out there

exige

I think it looks like a G35 up front with the vertical headlights, lined grill, and the 2 lower grill vents

If this makes production I will be number 1 in line @ my dealership. I would have loved to buy a Toyota product when I bought my GTO 6 months ago. Its about time Toyota gives me a V8 RWD to have some fun with!!

Ugh, the problem is, it will be an automatic almost definatly if it is hybrid, and has all that power. Lame-o

tho, i realize its a luxury (first) sport-coupe (second), i definitely would prefer a manual if Lexus had offered one for my SC430. hopefully, they'll mate the new Supra's engine up with a beefy manual transmission and market this with more emphasis on "sport" than on "luxury". if they do, put me down for one!

I'll send this to my brother and try to have his wife (shes japanese) translate and I post up what she says...

The pics look very interesting, potentially looks like the next supra might just be my next car...

dexter_5000

they'll probably just off a sequential automatic like they did with the solara v6 3.3l engine. in my view i understand a i6 is heavy but still it creates massive amounts of torque and has proven to outdo many of the v6 models. the v8 should be an optional thing. make one i with an i6 turbo or supercharged then we might be talking. i'm not saying the v8 is bad but realistically like everyone else if i had one i'd want a manual trans that i shift.

i do like the new awd lexus setups with manual trans though.

I like it more than the skyline.
