it mentions the return of a more powerful and stylish supra. the site of toyota also does'nt have any info on the supra. maybe they are being secretive about it till its launch you never know. keeping everyone guessing i guess.

if your curseing yourself for not haveing a cam i should be kicking myself. i was offered a 98 november supra silver coloured twin turbo belonging to a jeweler who had gone bust and needed money deperately. the car was offered in 99 jan it had done 200kms and was asking 12lacs for the car. yours truely offered 8 even though my dad had given me a budget of 11 thinking i could get a bargain for it. the car got sold for 10. dont you want to kick me.

You had the Budget and you did not buy it? I am kicking myself for even reading this. :p



agree: The Supra was a good selling car. Toyota should know better to bring it back.

The Nissan 350z is doing pretty well and Toyota has no answer for it...yet.

you know ironwolf i did feel like kicking myself but when u are 18yrs old you do end up doing stupid things, so did i :Frustrati . i'm repenting thought i was king and did'nt realise there were others in line. could not find another supra that was this clean and a turbo.
toyota had removed the MRs small car had seen one in bom yellow coloured one. no match for the nissan 350z though. i want to see toyota getting an answer to the sportscars of today. they dont have any in their lineup. its a shame.

I've never really liked the MR2. Its gotta be the Supra all the way!

IIRC, MR-S and MR2 are one and the same with MR-S being for the Japanese market and MR2 for the american market. They discontinued marketing MR2 in US but the japanese spec one continued to be made till earlier this year I guess.

Difference between MR-S/MR2 and a Supra is that MR2 is a mid-engined car!!! How many mid-engined toyotas, or any other brand for that matter, do you see on Indian roads or foreign roads? Ferrari, Lamborghini, NSX, MR2... what else?

I agree. Mr2 is grossly underpowered although its an absolute go-kart in-terms of handling. The older generations have tremendous tuning potential however just like the Supra.

Bingo! Underpowered it is, the MR2. Don't think it was much of a hit in the US.
