ChrisH Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 A colleague of mine has been involved in some consultancy work for Toyota UK, and informs me that following a recent audit they have discovered a long lost prototype of a convertible Supra (not an Aerotop). Developement work commenced using a specialist team here in the UK, but was abandonded around 2000. I understand this prototype, the only one remaining, had been languishing for a number of years in the garage of a Toyota development engineer. From what I can gather, the hood folds down into where the back seats normally are, i.e. it is a 2 seater only. He has got me this photo of it, and will try and find out more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kill1308 Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 (edited) Looks photoshopped to me and a pretty bad job they've done too. Edit : Ahh.... just looked at the calendar and realised it's April 1st and that it looks like your car.
