I could have sworn Jalopnik did an article about "Why anything you read about a new RX7 simply isn't happening" or something like that.

Then I found this: !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Why do these types of articles still keep coming out then? Just to keep the hype train going or is there more to it than we think?

And speaking of which, any news on the new Toyota/BMW Supra? On a scale of 1-10, just how "confirmed" is that?

This is the most recent piece on the BMW-Toyota collaboration that I can find, though I recall reading a more recent article on the FP about the Supra using a BMW engine or something.

The BMW/Toyota collaboration is confirmed: BMW will lend the Z4 chassis to Toyota, and in return Toyota will give BMW their hybrid technology.

I spoke to my guy at Mazda a few months back. He said that there's no RX in development that he knows of/anyone he knows knows of.

Is that the automotive equivalent of "if you show me yours, I'll show you mine"?

I'll see myself out.

I'm sure you're used to telling people that.

So does that mean that among the GTR, the new NSX, and the new Supra, the new Supra would be the smallest car in size? Was it like that back in the 90s too?

I've had to say it a few times.

Supercars are surprisingly small, so it might be the same size.
