That power is not going to be used on the street, it would literally shred those tires from all that power.

However, I love Woon's Supra...one of my favs

why would somebody sell a car they built from the ground up... seriously. I would never ever sell anything I built from the ground up, doesn't matter if it's a integra or a supra.

There comes a point where you just get sick of it. And its time to move on people get older and sometime the wife is sick of it being parked all the time and just takeing up space there are many factors that take into play.

Like myself im building my evo im going all out it will be way past 600whp thats on my sig im going for the record but im keeping it on the down low untill i actualy do so. And it AMS wont even have there hands in this one. This is one of my fears as well the point where i will want to move on. Im young now only being 21 once i get older and start a family i might have to part ways with it.


Dont get mad about it. Its just the way of life.

+1. I'd pay $100,000 to PIITB of the blonde in the high-rise bikini, but only about $30,000 for that Supra. There's no Toyota worth $100,000 to me.....

i dont think you're paying so much for the car..

but more for the legacy of that car....the awards it has won...what it has achieved....and the world renowned recognition.

A 1982 Camaro Z28 was awarded "Best Handling Car of 1982," but I wouldn't pay $100,000 for one. Mustangs are arguably the largest name in American automotive history, along with Corvette. Their legacies run much deeper than that of any Toyota.

The only legacy a Supra has is the one for being the infamous orange car in "Fast and the Furious." Prior to that turd of a movie, nobody could have cared any less about them.

No doubt that Supra has had a ton of money poured into it, and it shows. It's an amazing car, but when you sell a modded car, don't expect to pull in anything remotely close to the amount of money you poured into it, including the car.

It's definitely impressive that the Supra will run 8s and run on the street all day long. There aren't many cars that can make that claim, but $100,000 for it? I don't think so.

My STi was not only in a Subaru company video, but it was also featured in the local newspaper in a column of the automotive section. It doesn't increase the value of my car. It's just part of a conversation to share with friends.
