Kind of weird to hear of a car's demise that's two model years away.

Not if you've read the Falcon, Commodore and Camaro threads.

Re-reading those kinds of long threads are like reading parts catalogs with every other page missing.

Toyota Australia has already begun initial design work on the GR Supra Supercar through its own in-house design team, based at Altona. The design team used CAD and VR technology to produce a scale clay model, which was on display at the launch.

The GR Supra Supercar will use Toyota’s 2UR-GSE all-aluminium, quad-cam V8 as its baseline engine. The engine has featured in a range of performance production cars, as well as the 2019 Dakar-winning HiLux.
