From what I have heard from a Toyota Rep in Japan - The Supra will release a V8, V8 Twin Turbo and V10. The lexus counterpart will have a V10 Twin Turbo. Supposedly, they have completed the design on these cars, and is the best kept secret. We'll see.

Nice, considering the concept above looks alot like everything else these days. Hopefully they'll keep it closer to the lineage.
As far as the twin turbo, isn't it supposed to have some rediculous amount of HP? Above 800hp is what I've been hearing.

-500 hp+, less than 5.0L engine
-Less than 3000 lbs
-Top Speed, 190+ MPH
-The show car itself is two inches shorter than a Porsche 911 with a nine-inch-longer wheelbase. At 48 inches high, it is about the same height as a Ferrari F430; at 73.2 inches wide, it splits the difference between the Mercedes-Benz SL55 and the Aston Martin DB9.

Looks like a baby Gallardo. Looks like Toyota is going with its heritage of ripping off everyone elses designs!

Nothing they do will look as nice as the last generation did.

A Supra has been anticipated, rumored and all that bla since the death of the MKIV. There has been "real deal" news that people supposedly hear from "big wigs" at Toyota but still nothing ten years later and it ain't gonna happen.
