Time to bust out some smackdown!


Oh, and Graves: http://lexus.com/about/concept/lf-a_...or_photos.html

more importantly http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do...ticleId=105484

Blueboost: That is the "Toyota Volta". Even if it is released, we wont get it. It'll be a European car. "All it is" is an uber lightweight chassis with Camry V6 and electric motor powering the rear wheels

Like it says....CONCEPT. It's been a concept for how many years? Look at the road toyota's going. IT's not for performance vehicles more so towards the trucks.

Not even 1 year...

As far as it being a concept...well how often do manufacturers take concepts so masked out to Nurburgring? Last I checked, the LF-A will be released during/after Lexus remakes practically their entire lineup

2008 Toyota Supra
On Sale : Unconfirmed
These photos were Japanese interpretations of the next-gen Supra. Toyota is currently testing a supercar in the $100,000 range. Technology from this car may pass down to a future Supra, which may receive anything from a boosted V6 to a V8, or even a hybrid in its top form. Toyota has no comment, but the Supra nameplate will be back.

Oldest most reposted pictures ever.

Lets remember that the MkIV wasnt announced until 3 monthes before it was released. IIRC, same for the MkIII

what are the pictures in the magazines I keep seeing of a black car that looks like a supra, with black fabric coverings all over it. recently pictured in many automotive magazines with captions such as "spy shots- new supra etc.." You all know what I'm talking about, but I haven't seen any pics posted yet.

Refer to my first post...Lexus LF-A. You can see it with the mask in the Edmunds link or without from the official Lexus website link

the black covered car that has been shown in magazines has been a $100k plus supercar that toyota was supposedly testing for production. V10, 500 hp, etc. but it wont be the supra. to be honest, i dont think we'll see a supra until at LEAST 2007, when the new skyline will be released, and probably not until at least a year after that, so say late 2007-early 2008. toyota is smart enough to not release anything until they've made their decision on whether or not to bring it back
