The new Toyota Supra is coming it"ll be unveiled at the Detroit Show in January 2019. Meanwhile we have this track-look concept. Its body panels are production reality.

The Supra is a joint project with BMW, but, "they are not the same kind of car," the Supra"s project chief Tetsuya Tada tells Top Gear. "We will continue the heritage of the Supra, a pure sports car. There are fewer common elements than you would imagine. It"s not like the GT86 and Subaru." And Tada would know. He led the GT86 project too, and he ensured that was a pure sports car. Remember, the new Z4 will be a gentler soft-top. "The exterior and interior design [of the Supra] is Toyota." In other words, very different from the BMW, which we"ve also seen in concept form.
