Apparently it was a MKIV Supra prototype, looks like a Mazda to me but someone on OPPO probably knows more about it then I do.

It looks like a BMW prototype.

I’m thrown off by the logo. It looks like “MG” lol

Looks like its what a 1g dsm, a fd rx7 and a mk4 Supra would look like if they all morphed together

I’ve seen that picture before, apparently it’s sitting in the Toyota museum, but there were a few different proto designs for the MK4

Badge looks like an updated version of the old model badge:

As for the prototype-ness, two things:

1. The picture is in the Toyota museum. There’s a gen 1 Supra behind it and a Soarer next to it.

2. The greenhouse is almost exactly the same as the one that ended up on the JZA80.

Looks a thousand times better than any other Supra.

The thin pillared faux hardtop apparent Soarer prototype looks interesting, too.

That’s the FXV-II concept , and yes it previewed a lot of stuff about the Soarer/Lexus SC.

All I’m able to find about it is it’s sitting at the Toyota museum in California. From what I can gather this is an earlier styling MkIV Supra prototype before the styling direction shifted toward what became the actual car.

Here are a some links:

An Oppo post with a few styling mockups, one of which is close to this prototype.

A forum thread with a few more pictures of assorted Supra MkIV development.

A few more pictures of this prototype in the Toyota museum.
