Default Sick of hearing about this new supra turbo ?

This beast is supposed to be released sometime in 2003.. It resembles the 94/95 model.. I must say these cars have umph!, but they don't do anything for me, nor will the price tag.
I think the only reason Toyota are re-manufacturing this vehicle is that they don't have a decent sportscar on the market to rival Honda.

the main reason for that is the fact that this is a veilside promotional image for their "Fortune" kit for the MkIV Supra. I just found it on their site at www.veilsideusa.com . I'm not sure who decided this was the rumored "new" Supra.

that said, I pray before I go to bed each night that Toyota will eventually make another beast like the MkIV Supra TT.. In the meantime, I gotta focus on saving for the downpayment on my future '03 Spa Yellow S2000

The Supra TT is a monster.

I'd so love to have one. I'm very fond of the looks and the HP potential in that car is insane. Shame they never sold them in Canada, especially the year the MSRP dropped 10K US. That car is the most wired (computer controlled) car ever produced.

Wanna wet yourself, search the net for the 900HP supra videos. I've got this one where buddy almost slides off the dyno. The sound is just killer.

There have been a couple out to the tracks this year, unfortunately their drivers never really push the envelope. Same with the 911's and 944's I was beating this year. Too bad really, all that car and it's not pushed to the limits. What's the point?

Ummm, are you sure they never sold the Supra TT in Canada? I thought they did for at least one year, but maybe it was the N/A version.

That is a MKIV supra with a veilside body kit.
Toyota sold the Supra TT in Canada '93, '94, and '95.
In '96, Supras were still available in the US, but not Canada.
I personally like the Veilside C-2 kit as opposed to the one in the pic.

Peace.
