2020 Toyota Supra "Retro Runner" Looks Like a Modern Mk IV

Now, if you checked out the pixel contraption we have here and thought this looks like an Mk IV Supra... you were right. That's because we're looking at a visual exercise that sees the ex-gen model being thoroughly redesigned and presented as a different pathway to the one Toyota chose for the Mk V.

We're looking at a Photoshop journey, one that comes from The Sketch Monkey - as many aficionados out there, the artist isn't pleased with how the Toyota FT-1 concepts that previewed the Supra were seriously diluted for the production model, so he set out to give us his own version of the newcomer.

Marouane (this is the actual name of the pixel wielder) deserves a round of applause for this one. Sure, as he admits, he's late to the custom Mk V Supra table. But he makes up for this by taking the design down the "happy" path rather than giving us an angry face, the kind you can see on most new cars these days, regardless of the segment.

Now, if you're simply here for the result, the screenshots above will have you covered. Nevertheless, if you're willing to zoom in on the transformation and listen to the said pixel master explaining the changes, make sure to check out the clip below.

Meanwhile in the real world

While the 2019 SEMA show saw north of sixty modded 2020 Supras, many of those were not radical projects. And we can say the same about the 2020 Tokyo Auto Salon, which took place earlier this month. However, the Japanese venue introduced us to an Mk V Supra Convertible, a one-off that's actually built on an old Lexus platform.
