Would you like the 2015 Toyota Supra to look like this?
 |
Toyota has been teasing us with the idea of offering a new Supra sports car for quite some time. First it was rumored that we would all see a new model in 2008, but that didn’t happen. Now, the rumor is back with a debut scheduled for sometime in 2015, after Toyota finally offers up the production version of the FT-86 for our greedy consumption.
Being since this is just a rumor, not much is known about the next Supra. Originally, people thought the Supra would be offered with two engine choices: a 5.0 liter V8 engine producing 450 HP and 383 lb-ft of torque and a 3.5 liter V6 engine with 350 HP and 275 lb-ft of torque. Now people are claiming that the future model will actually be a hybrid sports car powered by a V6 engine with an electric motor for a total output of 400 HP and a top speed of more than 170 mph.
We’ll know more about the next Toyota Supra in due time, but for now, a fan of the model decided to render it to give people an idea of what it could look like. His concept car combines the essence of the Supra with design elements from the recently launched FT-86 sports car. The result is something we would really like to see put into production.
Let us know what you think in the comments section below!

The Rules
- The model must represent a vehicle from a TV show, movie or video that is accessible through normal channels to all. Please announce your role during your audition. No what-if's!

Please be ready to start when the Director calls for ACTION and have your role completed when the Director calls THAT'S A WRAP! The future of this franchise depends upon the success of this production. I am depending upon all actors to work together as a team!
