This is likely what will come from the Toyota-BMW collaboration. I wouldn't expect to see a four cylinder turbo in this car.

BMW powers a lot of cars with turbo inline-sixes. The last gen supra was powered by a now legendary turbo inline-six. I fully expect to see both cars powered by a turbo inline-six cylinder.

Akio Toyoda, TMC CEO said he doesn't want the Supra to be hybrid, but a classical FR sport car.

I thought the Z1/Z2 were the only Z models that would be 4cyl/FWD. I don't think we have to worry about that.

I see a lot of Toyota Concept styling in that photo.

I don't think so... They'll only do FWD on lower end cars in their line-up.

It looks kind of like a flattened 4C.
