Remarkable digital artist, Rostislav Prokop, gives us a glimpse of the sports car we all want in our lives, with his recreation of this classic.

It’s a good time to be a car enthusiast, despite the naysayers and the onslaught of electric cars.

Cars like the Toyota Supra and the Ford Mustang ensure that iconic names from the past can carry on and provide us with capable and fun vehicles in a world of EVs and hybrids.

When Toyota decided to bring back the Supra with help from BMW, it resurrected a cult sports car, one of many the brand is responsible for over the decades. Currently, there is no Toyota MR2 or Celica replacement, but if they did want to bring back a true icon, it might be this, the 2000GT — a rare, limited-production grand touring sports car from the end of the '60s.

Instagram artist Rostislav Prokop and this render commissioned for HotCars is a reminder of the beauty of the fastback coupe and of the legacy of the much-loved 2000GT.

This custom render displays in white, with an overall shape that pulls inspiration directly from the '60s classic Japanese sports car.

It’s surprisingly Supra-like in its shape and size, which you might expect too, as this concept would likely share the Supra’s same platform and very probably its engine and drivetrain too.

Up front, the pop-up lights of the original 2000GT are gone and in their place are sleek LED head lamps and below, the LED daytime running lamps are the first clue to this car’s source of inspiration.

Side skirts, large door ducts behind the front wheels and the sweeping roofline all make this car look like a modern coupe in the Supra’s image, but with a grand touring, halo-car twist.

So far, the design seems pretty cohesive in render form, with little to remind us of the 2000GT visually but perhaps with more spiritual meaning.

At the back, though, the design takes a turn for the better with an elegant rear end more in line with the legendary Toyota from 1967, the bodywork culminating in a pointed and round rear and tail lights in a similar position to the original’s.

Toyota is on a roll nowadays with the GR Yaris, GT86/GR86, Supra and more, but a more luxurious grand touring option might fit in well with the lineup, even if the engine is likely to be the same 382 hp 3-liter, twin-turbo straight-six engine.

A truly plush interior with this exterior design, a retuned suspension setup and the Camry’s relaxed 3.5-liter V6 with a supercharger would all make for a game-changing car.

There’s a lot in a name, and Toyota might do well to bring back the 2000GT, with this rendering as a starting point.
