wow dude, way to be a hater. I am not going to even knock on the evos cause they are amazing cars. Its people like you that give a lot of evo drivers a bad name. It seems that STi drivers really respect EVO drivers/ cars, but they dont get the same response back. Why dont you just respect both cars for what they are?

Plus your point is not really valid about the STi. If you think about it, what you said was an opinion. The comment about supras being amazing is pretty much a fact in the import world, along with how great the 4g63 is. Looks are something that is based on personal preferance, while the performance of the first two cannot be denied.

sorry for the

GL with the Supra. I am looking into a TT myself.

For the price you get what you pay for. Looks slightly modified. Be curious to see what EMS is it running on or if its just VPC/AFC. always get a prepurchase inspection done on these cars prior to buying from a shop that knows supras Sound Performance is in Chicago so might try them to inspect it.

I'd have to agree, its an auto which does take some of the "fun" out of driving a supra. I have driven many supras and I love the auto for just daily driving though. I perfer sticks though.

Its a 12 year old car, and frankly there still isn't a import car out there that can beat em from a roll as far as I'm concerned. Those that are properly modified to be 700+hp. Not saying theres exceptions but if there is then feel free to come visit me in portlant with what you have

I love the 4g63 motor...supra's 2jzGTE just has more displacement and less drive train loss ftw.

Built Chevy auto + transbrake is the only way I would own a Supra!

Good luck with the car... honestly I'd rather get an 03/04 Cobra for the price... best bang for your RWD buck.

Hmmm, what do I think....what do I think......

I think it's a very nice car with a ridiculous pricetag for a 13 year old car with 60,000 miles on it.

I still dont see why a 12 yr old car would be worth more than Evo...but to each his own

Sorry, was never really a fan of Supra cuz I think they're too overhyped and overpriced
