Crazy little shifter and some mouse thing in the middle.

so we’ve all been reading about this for quite some time now. the hybrid will apparently make around 400hp and a non-hybrid version will be made as well…i’m still undecided about how i feel about that. pulled from 7tune
2011 Hybrid Supra Successor

For Toyota sports car enthusiasts around the world, things have been very dull and uninspiring for the past few years.
2011_toyota_supra.jpg Since production of the Supra ceased back in 2002, enthusiasts and tuners alike have been left with only the SC Soarer or the mid-ship MR-S to tinker with. However, with new rumors surfacing that the 086A is still in the works we’ve also caught news of a Supra successor to come along with it. Sounds like Toyota’s Akio Toyoda is answering every enthusiasts prayers recently!
Taking the base of the FT-HS Hybrid Sports car which debuted back in 2007, we’ve learned that development of the Supra successor has continued its progress secretly, taking a back seat to the 086A. What we now know though is that most elements of the successor car have moved out of the design phase and into development with speak of a mule that is being anticipated for 2009 end. The engine will most probably be the Lexus 450H’s 3.5l V6 and we now know that it will be coupled with the current Toyota Crown hybrid system delivering a total of 400hp to the rear wheels.

Whilst this differs a lot from the previous generation Supra, one very interesting point we’re keeping a close eye on is that Toyota will be looking at targeting sports car enthusiasts with another ‘non green’ version of the car. Apparently, for drivers not content with the Eco package Toyota will be supplying a ‘Sports’ version sans hybrid parts. Details are still sketchy but pricing is being pinned at around the three to four million yen mark and should make a debut at this year’s Tokyo Motor Show. Release date will go unchanged and be should be expected late 2011.

A clublexus member was kind enough to photoshop this for me

So this is what $360 gets you…
It took me weeks to find out how to get these. And I’m still working on getting the rear sets :-(
Another day, another dollar… in this case another $360 for the rear sets…
