Looks like a cross between a TVR and an Aston Martin. I don\'t like it though.

I think it looks pretty nice.  I like the aggressive lines.  I\'m glad everyone is getting away from the rounded look of the 90s.

So Nissan got their Z, Mazda has the RX-8.. I was wondering when Toyota would get back in the game!

I think the car needs something more disctintive, so right off the bat you know it\'s a Supra.  And the wheels could use some work.  The Z still has the best looks of the 3 Jap supercars imo.

A few problems:

1.  You can\'t really see the front end too well, but what I can see looks dumb compared to the old Supra.
2.  The whole body is a bit too Chris Bangle-ish with all the creases
3.  I\'m so sick of these enormous 19" and 20" chrome wheels on everything these days.  It\'s not a friggin\' Lexus.  It needs to actually go fast and be reliable under track conditions, not just look fast.  Huge heavy chrome wheels are fragile, and increase unsprung weight.

I like the bangle look on some things.  I love the z4.  I just think it makes the cars look meaner.  the 5, the 7, the 4, they all have a mean look about the front end.

The ass on all of them I\'m not too hot on, but it\'ll grow on me I guess.

Hmmm, I like the back, very old school Supra still. Where\'s the spoiler? Looks very short for a coupe, I mean, look at the length of the doors... I like the twin exhast, hate the clear tail lights (waaaaaay too overdone nowadays). The front looks alittle retarded for the rest of the car.

1 Euro lights look fine to me. They arent the usual mod type (ugly/red lights clear case)
2 Wheres the spoiler
3 Front looks like ass
4 Rims look fine for standards. Larger - faster, Alloys - lighter (some)

THe front does look a bit odd.

I like the side pic though.

yea slap a spoiler on there and it would transition a lot better

and the front is the only part that turns me off as well

I like it, but the front is crap.
