Yeah, even though im auto and n/a......2 n/a engines......3 auto trans.....3 sets of brake calipers and lines...and 2 control arms later.....I still love it and drive it everyday. Even though i've yet to get my turbo engine done. I will have boost sometime soon and im sure it's gonna be even more fun to drive.

I'm a guy....it's in my genes to drive fast and have grease under my nails

I can't say I enjoy driving my Supra around town, being that I don't have a tune and the R154 being a rough vibrant piece of work. BUT I love driving the Supra fast on the track it could be my upgraded 13" Cobra brakes and full poly suspension that don't make this thing feel like such a body rolling slouch, I also love 0-140+ racing.

Mine is almost to much for the street, I enjoy driving it around a bit but the exhaust will give you a headache cruising on the hwy. The fuel Pumps are loud and the clutch is a bitch to drive.....so yeah its fun to drive.

Well i'm drunk so all i can say is Crisp needs to write a book, as he is so clever with his words. I'm just going to say that sometimes i park my soop in the shed and just stare at it for minutes at a time , then break into a smile and remember the shit heaps i owned before it. Some good some really bad!
What takes away from my enjoyment is the increasing police population in my local area for some bizarre reason as they seem to be useing it for a training ground and my car is a constant target.
I love my car and it's looks make me hard, in a perfect world where there are no cops and i can go as fast as i want with no consequence my supra is my automotive vagina......!!!!!!!!!

Having just posted an account of several enterprising encounters with... er... OTHER genre of MUSCLE (in my "crispography... build thread...) and considering the changes to my car since I FIRST posted this thread and open inquiry to the greater group... I'm reminded once again of just how much PLEASURE driving my Supra brings into my life!!!


For those who hadn't yet considered the original question, try the first post on for size and/or just share a little snapshot into YOUR personal experience with your Supra driving pleasures!;)

im a twenty two year old, with one two year old and another on the way in march, a beautiful wife, i started with a pretty bad, bhg, 87 turbo about four years ago, and already own three, one of which is somewhere between 500-600 whp,

i have honestly wondered sometimes if having a mistress woulda been easier to defend lol, but fuck yes, i have 5 other types of cars and nothing compares including my newer stuff such as 05 TL and 06 Si both are highly modified, but the supras, even the NA take the cake,


i think all cars have a sort of personality but we literally communicate on a different level, im sure all of you know what i mean, its amazing isnt it??????

oh and a boost boner is fun too, especially when your wife goes YAAAAAYYY when you end up sideways and you were just intending on turning lol, freaking intersections lol

day by day, month by month, and year by year, the supra seems to just get better and better with age.

there are things that annoy me about my car, but I tend to fix them slowly but surely.. and with each thing I fix, the drive becomes more and more satisfying. at the same time, I learned a long time ago to look past the faults and to simply enjoy the engineering marvel that this car was and arguably still is.

I hate to admit it, but it is fun to drive.

Sometimes I think about how much money I have spent on this car, and the other newer cars I could own for the same money. Despite the headaches, when it comes down to it, I enjoy my car despite its vast number of flaws.

One day it will be the car I want it to be...

Hell I'm the original owner of my 1990 MKIII that now has a 2jz in it that I swapped myself. I have had more than my fair share of misfortunes with the car.....But DAMN if I don't feel great after the smallest drive and a little boost!

My '87 was the first Ive ever driven. I waited months to get it running from just a roller and a pile of parts and it was worth every minute. Im very pleased with the handling, comfort and power of a BPU Supra. Im now going through withdrawl since it has been sitting the past few months getting the body work done. Even looking the way it did I always managed to get a compliment, I cant wait until its painted.

Even after the accident and the last post almost 2 years ago, every time she spools up I get a grin a mile wide on my face. I still feel the same way, wouldn't trade my time driving the poopra for anything.
