Default Akio Toyoda would love to build a new Supra

But unfortunately the reality is it probably won't happen in the short term.

With him involved in the Supra development previously he does have the passion to do another one. Maybe in a couple of years they could use all the R&D off the back of the LFA to give us a Nissan GTR equivalent...

Or even give us the LFA minus some of the carbon fibre for GTR money...

Or I'd just be happy with an IQ with the LFA dash!

I guess if Toyota get themselves back on track corporately it may well happen.

If the guy at the top has a passion for sports cars it can only be a good thing
