Then why the hell are you into Supras?!

But honestly, that's what got me into them. I had the privilege of riding in a 500RWHP MkIV and man was it fast.

My experience : I get in.. Wow these seats are amazing. Then we back out of the driveway... Damn this thing is loud. So we start to cruise, I'm thinking, this isn't going to be too fast. Now here it is, the stoplight. :evil2:

I'm thinking, what the hell do all these numbers and switches mean/do?!?!!? And what the hell is a bottle of lotion doing in his center console?!!! :3d_frown:

It turns green. Takes off normally in 1st, then guns it. I hear what sounds like a jet engine spooling and oh god it's getting louder! Faster than the piss coming out of my body it happened so quick. Wastegate opens, tires spin. Then holy shit he shifted to 2nd so fast I thought the tranny was going to fall out, here we are sideways and I'm thinking to myself, okay we are dead.

Finally catch traction in 3rd gear, turbo spools back up and shit I'm stuck to the seat, and I mean it felt like somebody pushing on my chest. 4th and before I know it were at 120. He takes me home, and after I clean my pants I look on autotrader for Supras :naughty:

Let me remind you I was 13 at the time, and before this the fastest car I've riden in was a mini-van. That one moment changed my life for good. :love:

If i could afford the chevy colorado.... then i would have the mustang AND the supra. hahahaha. MR2's have that mid engine stuff... no bueno.

I know what you mean by that, last night i was out tuning my friends eclipse gsx, and he has it pushin 23psi... launched it at 4,000RPM... HOLY SHIT. Never have i felt a car leave from a stand still so quick... his car is the reason i want a GSX. Or a galant vr-4.

Same thing with my brothers supra... he had to give me a ride in his old maroon turbo, did a nice little 0-100 pull on the way to the house, it was nice to say the least.

Guess i'll keep searchin craigslist for a decent body supra with a blown engine... or a mustang the same...

I voted Mustang, but only if you get the fastback. A 69 fastback is the sex! But, I had a hard time choosing between that and the 90 turbo. I'm an old guy, who grey up with 4 old Stangs, but my 90 Supra Turbo has been my favorite car that I've had yet. My first 67 Mustang (all V-8's BTW) was the fastest, until my Supra.
