Why Japan stop making Toyota supra?

Question

For some reason Japan had stop making supra, i heard that japan had stop making them because supra are too fast, plus i heard that their making a 2007 toyota supra is it true?

Answer 1

The Supra was discontinued for the same reason any car is -not enough demand to make it profitable. The Supra was quickly becoming a very expensive car for it's class when it was discontinued (to the tune of $40,000), much the same way the RX-7 was when it was cancelled. Toyota has not released any official plans for a new Supra - meaning any chance of seeing it next year is nil. If they started planning for a new Supra today, it would probably be model year 2009 or 2010 before it was in showrooms, although they could possibly rush it using an existing platform, like the one for the Lexus IS series, which they ARE planning a high-performance version of, but the use of the name 'Supra' for that car is in doubt.

Answer 2

Supra's a junk? My God, the sheer stupidity of people around here amazes me. Toyota is making a Supra for 2007, and they haven't decided to go with Toyota or Lexus badging, but they would prefer Toyota bacause of the legacy of the Toyota Supra. Also, Nissan only stopped making Skylines VERY recently, like 2003 or something, and in 2007, they are making a new one that will be released in America. Its a NISSAN Skyline GT-R, and it will be Nissan, NOT Infinity.

Answer 3

Yes, it is true. Look for the new Supra to appear in 2007/2008 and likely be rebadged as a Lexus model. The price is estimated at around 60,000-70,000.

Answer 4

that's too expensive the supra needs to compete with the Nissan 350Z and the Honda S2000 maybe the infinity G35 coupe. $50K is not a place for a Toyota. I say twin turbo v6 with 350-400 HP and a price tag around 35K and it will sell. If Lexus comes out with a real sports car maybe it could be in the $50K range.

Answer 5

They couldn't sell that type of the car like they used to do.
Wagon is now popular .
And also at the exhaust gas part ,they couldn't pass the limit line.
Same reason,Nissan stopped making Skyline.

But it seems it's true that the new model is coming next year.

That's what I heard.

Answer 6

I think that car is dangerous.Because Supra is the most fast car in sport car.

Answer 7

They will still sell them, as long as it's based on the 93-98's the older ones were pretty stupid.

Answer 8

i believa they stopped to work on makeing a updated model becasue dritfing is becomeing a huge deal over there, and now its spilling into the U.S.A.

Answer 9

cuz they are junk

Answer 10

i dunno look on their website they don't seem to have anything in the concept car section......
