Nothing against the A90 Supra, but if Toyota is capable of producing a car like the Lexus RC and LC, they should be capable of producing the Supra by themselves isn't it? Fun fact, the old A80 Supra shares its platform with the Toyota Soarer/Lexus SC at the time.

Germaine Liew it’s not about whether Toyota can or can’t, it’s about spending their capital on projects with the best returns. The Supra is a niche model that demanded a straight-six, and for Toyota to develop their own engine would cost them millions of dollars and they wouldn’t see that money back on Supra sales alone. Toyota are also putting most of their development budget into EV and alternative energy drivetrains. This is hugely expensive for automakers but far more critical than a two-seat sports car, hence why Toyota found a partner in BMW to share costs.

Most likely cost, this thing is around base 911 price but not even close in terms of performance. For those who think that the cost could be cut as a Toyota should also remember the fun fact that the twin turbo mk4 Supra cost as much as the top trim Lexus it shared chassis with, so most likely there won't be much on cost savings. The nice thing is if people feel that this is a true successor to the mk4 Supra they have the option of buying the RCF, although I do think that'll be a tough sell since the track times I've seen with the RCF is about the same as the mk5 Supra.

I know I know the C8 is the greatest new car in a long while, but man does this car also seem pretty sweet!

You can find a twin turbo gen 5 viper for 100k now days.

As someone with a regular RCF, this car is DEFINITELY for the hardcore Lexus enthusiast. Even people like me who love the Regular RCF would not buy this because like many people are saying this car is 100k for just a tiny boost in performance that can be made up with driver mod or aftermarket parts. Sure it looks cool but why would you get this car for 100k when you can pickup a NISMO GTR,NEW GT500,used C7 ZR1,2 used Camaro ZL1s etc... all for the same price. At the end of the day anyone who is looking to buy a car for the track doesn't care about reliability or comfort and the RCF in my opinion is a perfect street car/daily driver but Lexus should not have released this track variant without doing something SUBSTANTIALLY different (forced induction). People aren't going to buy your 100k track car when the average mustang gt with some after market parts will destroy it. Lexus just needs to bring out that twin turbo v8 coming in the LCF and people will actually buy their performance cars.

Sir I am in complete agreement with your very last statement. Complete redesign of Supra needs to be all Toyota.

I'll stick to the Infiniti Q50 3.0 Turbo or Kia Stinger. Even the Lotus 400 Evora is better and cheaper. I'm sure the Lexus is a hoot to drive fast. But, the Hyundai Veloster N with the 275 hp is much less in pricing and the fun factor is in an all time high. The Civic Type R is the only car in its class that'll edge it out by it's hp advantage. Props to the Fosd ST bring some heat to the segment. I'm sure the Mazda 3 turbo with also bring some heat into the mix.

*( Love Toyota products overall. But, what market is this trying to be placed at? 100k for a 4.4 - 0-60 and, nearly 13 sec quarter mile, when the new 60-70k mid-engine Corvette does in 2.8 and 11 flat? Scratching my head on this one...)*

The new Supra will run circles around the RC F and it costs nearly half as much. Other than the styling being a little strange and the interior being straight up BMW, I DON’T find the new Supra to be embarrassing at all. I’d much rather have the Supra than the RC F on a track or just driving around town. BMW’s B58 3.0L turbocharged I-6 is much stronger than Lexus’ naturally aspirated 5.0L V8. While the power numbers themselves may be lower, look how strong the Supra, Z4 and M340i perform. The M340i can run a sub-4 second 0-60. ZF’s 8HP transmission is also vastly superior to Toyota-Aisin’s 8-speed. The ZF shifts substantially faster, shift logic is more intelligent and it’s capable of huge downshifts like 8th to 2nd, which the Toyota transmission can’t do. My dream for Toyota/Lexus is for them to release an all-new IS/RC with an in-house turbocharged I-6 engine that would be a modern interpretation of the 2JZ. Either the Aisin-Warner 8-speed automatic needs to be replaced with the ZF 8HP, or they have to rework the LS’ 10-speed to greatly improve its performance characteristics to match ZF. Lexus is still about refinement and no engine layout is nearly as smooth or refined as a straight six. They sound phenomenal too and we all know how reliable and tunable the 2JZ was. That engine could also replace the V8 in the next generation Land Cruiser, Tundra, Sequoia, GX, and LX, while also replacing the 3.4T V6 in the LS. I’d love to see a turbocharged I-6 offered as an upgrade engine for the 4Runner and Tacoma too.

Johnny Cham I have no clue who papadakis is. Also, there’s no way they would be able to get a 2JZ engine to pass current federal emissions testing or deliver impressive fuel economy using the old port fuel injection of yesteryear. Even Toyota has adopted Direct Injection on all of their new engines. The B58 is as close to a modern 2JZ as you’d get. It’s got all of the latest advancements to improve emissions, have almost no turbo lag, offer impressive fuel economy, and last a long time. I hope Toyota does develop their own new I-6 for Lexus vehicles, but they won’t. The internal combustion engine is on its way out. To develop an entirely new engine family for one or two cars doesn’t make financial sense. My argument in favor of a “new 2JZ” would be it could be used in every RWD-based Toyota or Lexus vehicle including the Tundra, 4Runner, Tacoma, Sequoia, Land Cruiser, LS, LX, GX, GS, IS, and RC. The beauty of the I-6 as you know is how smooth, torquey and it’s generally a strong engine design that lasts a long time. It’s also cheaper to produce because it only has two camshafts instead of 4 like in a V6, one head, doesn’t require balance shafts, and they usually weigh less. The reason Toyota and everyone else embraced the V6 is that they can shove it in a FWD car like the Camry, Highlander, RX, ES and formerly the RAV4, while at the same time it can be used longitudinally mounted in their RWD cars. It’s generally not too easy to fit an I-6 sideways for FWD use, but it has been done (Volvo - S60, S90, XC60 and XC90) and VW’s VR6 is more like an Inline-6 than a V6. I personally think an inline-6 (maybe with electric assistance like a 48V electric supercharger) would fit into Lexus’ ethos of refinement much better than a V6 that is essentially identical to the one in a $29K Camry V6.
