A boostless Supra? With a V8? Well, one thing is for sure: the ricer argument of "big V8s suck!" will no longer hold any weight, especially since Toyota will be making one.

I think the reason why so many people loved MKIV Supras were the fact that they were turboed. A few BPU mods here and there, remove downpipe, viola! Instant highway speed demon.

With this Supra being NA, I don't know how the boosted Supra enthusiasts will treat this Supra, but I will assume most will say, "Bah!! The last real Supra was made in 1998!"

Oh, and that pic with all the *** writing makes the Supra look like horse****.
