Did Toyota buy the new Mitsubishi Eclipse design or something?

i think the yellow concept is rather ugly.. i would highly doubt that it would be a supra replacement, just look at the car. it looks like an SLK, its tiny... the hood seems to be way to short IMO. but the headlights look much better on the yellow than the red,the red/blacks are ugly IMO. this concept has been floating around for years, but anyway, i think the red one is pretty hot, except for the front lights, i hate. i love the lines. would love to see toyota make a new supra.

The tailights on the Supra actually look more like last-gen Eclipse than the latest.

It was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw it and I'm 100% sure I'm not the only one. Atleast a majority agree that it's ugly though. Hopefully Toyota will reconsider the design.

The first spread of pictures of the new "Supra" look like the b*stard offspring Toyota FJ Cruiser prototype raping a Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. I think its the most hideous rendition of the Supra yet.

If it at all shares any family resemblance with that one Toyota concept (that McLaren style 3-seater hybrid sports car) it should be a rather good looking car and nothing like those top pics of the car in red and black.

Like the NSX, I'll just see it when I see it. We've seen pics for some years now and I am done speculating.

We should still contribute an oppinion you never know who is lurking!


Yellow car no, the eclipse gt actually looks better then that.

The older shots look like the mkiv with different headlights, they should definitively stray away from the porky sc430 look, The supra should look svelte and curvy imo kinda like the original 2000gt. Although I think the l-fa could be a possible clue into what shape it might have.
