Hell, I'd take a C5 Z06 any day over the Supra if they're the same price.

I like the Supra turbo fine, but it's not a sports car (IMO) Don't they weigh 36xx lbs?

I would love to have one. There have been three cars that I have sat in that just felt like they 'fit' when I sat down, the Supra Mark IV, MR2 V2 and the S. Each car just felt right.

mine is around 3550

Its not as nimble as my Z06 but surprisingly the skipad and stopping distance numbers are just as good as the Z06. Id guess it would be a little behind in the slalom department.

Supra was a beautiful design for its time. It still looks very good today, if well kept.

Found a link to the new Supra - http://gallery.prezzibenzina.it/v/ida/Auto.../supra.jpg.html

Based on the looks of it, it's soooo freakin' ugly that the last gen Supras should jump in value.

you probably couldn't finance one either as the bank would deny to loan you that much for a car that is that far over book.
