Was at the detroit auto show. Its a green car, combining electric motors and conventional and they still came up with a 700hp beast.

I'll take one, everyone seems to think that toyota is going to make this. Probably not exactly like it but pretty close. We'll see. I'll start saving my money.

Oh great... yet another car I'll never be able to afford because Toyota priced it totally out of the range of anyone who could drive it the way it was meant to be driven. Joy...

The front picture alone is fugly but combine it with the rest of the car and I think it looks great. Car and Driver, a few months ago, said they are producing a 2008 Supra off of the current IS platform with a retuned 3.5 or 3.8L V6 producing 350 or close to 400 HP. Priced "slightly" above the higher end 350's. I hope they produce something like that.

So they came up with a 700hp beast that looks like it has downs syndrome? I'd rather have the new style Camry then that thing.

The front and rear look really strange. It's like they want to draw your eyes toward the license plate or something. It looks nice from the side though I can't say as reminds me of a supra.The name FT-HS is'nt really going to fly too well, "hey thats the new FT-HS" ? that dont sound right.

Reports from most of the sources covering this car say that it'll be affordable. 35 ish at most.

It looks horrible. Looks like a Scion, BMW and an Audi got crushed together and this was what came out. I'll stick with the 93-98 style Supra.

Ugly as sin, i'd rather have the older supras with less hp. Right now it's a "look at me" attention whore kind of car. Who was the moron that decided it should look like a jet cockpit anyway, its a @!#$ car not a plane...

I know its a seperate car, when it came out it was surpossed to be the new Supra, it was either going to be the new Supra or a Lexus. And different car or not of all the rumored supra's this one is the ugliest so far.

actually i've never read anywhere that, that car was in any way the new Supra.

According to all the magazines it's a one off styling car to showcase the performance possabilites of Hybird Synergy Drive. Motor Trend even says "Toyota reps confirm this is not slated for production".

It's not the new Supra.

Front end is not my cup of tea. It looks like someone nailed the air dam and spats from an old 72 Trans Am onto a boat and Bondo-ed it to the front end of a cool car.

The rear is kinda dodgy too, I'm not liking the concave areas under the tail lights. The top, I don't like seeing the bulges on there when the underside is probably flat (the bulges were for helmeted drivers originally). The side... I don't know... looks too angular.

It's a concept car, so the lines will be refined, but I'm not liking it in its current trim. The interior however... WOW!






And now for something completely different... Click the Minister.
