It looks proportionally small for the car.
That's ok though, the ricer crowd will take care of that little oversight.

Toyota have been taking it up the ass in the import community for quite a while now.
If you think about it, they really have no true high-performance options for buyers and the rice folks have taken note of it.
You have the Celica GT-S, which is a sharp car with lots of cool features but not a lot of HP out of the box. The MSRP on this model is a little high and the aftermarket hasn't really come out to supprot it like they have other models.
You have the MR-S which is a cool car but not the same as the MR-2 it replaced, and as it turns out very hard to (reliably) turbocharge.
The Nissan 350Z (and infiniti equivalent) has been a good seller and has been embraced by the aftermarket too. And the car represents an evolution of the Z car design...it makes sense to call this one a 350, not a 240z for cheap namesake heat.
Mazda has produced a logical successor to its RX-7 in the RX8.
So if the new Supra can walk the walk....and as far as I can recall every Supra (not just the "2JZ no shit" variety has been a serious performance car....then it should be a great return for Toyota.
But if they offer only a midpowered, normally-aspirated V6 with no turbo option they'll be asking for trouble IMHO ala the new "Dodge Charger".

yeah even though the charger is ugly imo the aftermarket boys were hammering out new tubes and shit for that car six months before it hit the showrooms...and quite honstly...could you picture the shear nut of the top model with a aftermarket twin screw? lol hehehehe 4 doors or not that shit would move like a scalded ape

i know its ugly...and yes theres always somthing faster but im just saying that the new hemi although not THE HEMI of the day is still a rockin setup..and a twinscrew blower on that bitch would produce some rediculas horspower and torq to the tires. its a fact that chrysler corp fuckedup discontinueing the car in the first place and then again by fucking it up with this wanna be...either way they did right by the car at least droping a decent engine into it...you gotta at least give them ALITTLE credit lol...your a purist...its ok..
