Got the newest Turbo magazine in the mail this past weekend, they got these supras with all stock internals turning over 600 hp and daily driven, pretty impressive, I guess I havent noticed what they have been doing with those cars!

Yeah I noticed that too since I was looking at them when I bought my 7. They are mighty fine but the people i know who own them are ****** and refuse to race them. And on top of that those things are freaking exspensive if you want a decent twin turbo!!

another car the dealer couldnt give away!



The last year they sold them the dealer dropped the price by almost

$10,000 to the $30,000 range, so imagine if you were one of the poor

bastards that paid full price a few months before that, and now a new model year car is being sold for $10,000 less then what yours cost new, so basically you car just diminished in price by more then half!



I seem to rememeber some law suits.

They can do more then 600 on stock internals. I've heard of closer to 800 on the supraforums from quite a few people.



One day there will be one in the garage next to my 7
