I agree, the Supra looks ALOT better then the Z.

Toyota will wipe Nissan out when they get the new Supra out.

More power, def. more aggressive looks too - should be a total blow out when Supra arrives in '08!

Mine says Z34 also... I'm guessing the USDM Z's are Z34 and they're Z33 in Japan.

oh sure, any manufacturer can make a better car some 5-6 years after the z set the bar! give me a break. i would hope toyota's new supra would be better. i would hate to think were moving backwards in auto design....

Those cars are ugly, they will never make it to the market like that.. Those are just prototypes.

The article mentions R&T's ties with Best Car Mag in Japan. I trust Best Motoring's word as gospel, if Best Car Mag is the same as BMI videos. Kei office rules.

edit: best car, not best motor is R&T's friend in Japan

I love the look of the z...looks similar to an italian design. IMO, the current Z's front end doesn't look the greatest

i do NOT like that Z front end, its horrid IMO, looks like a deformed porsche. the rest looks similiar, and i would love a 350HP Z stock. the supra looks pretty decent imo. dont care about the others.

out of all 3 the supra is by far the nicest looking (concept). the s2k (current/future/etc) is and always will be garbage in my eyes (no offense to any s2k owners..but come on, a v4 in a $30,000+ car?). Last, the Z...please tell me thats not the front end...any rear shots? I'm glad I got my 06 SS E

the Z doesn't look too bad. just hope if they do make it they keep the signature door handles.
