Mine, I drive an MKIII Supra in real life

Use it in the game too, I've done the nurburgring 4 hour endurance with it! What a race :)
 
7MGTE :-D MKIII are very nice cars in real life, havent driven it much in the game, i just bought it to have it, the MKIV (Jellybean) is a very nice car, handles well for the pig that it is and is very nice in real life also considering that the stock internals can support 1000whp
 
My buddy has a MkIV TT, pushin about 450hp, amazing car, actually faster than his 93 Supercharged Camaro Z28....after driving his on the highway, i'd go with the MkIV over any other Supra anyday, it pulled more than a 4 armed hooker givin away free hand jobs behind the church
 
I've driven both an mk3 and an mk4. To be honest the mk4 is faster, and the twin turbo is awesome, but the mk3 feels less luxurious, and I love turbo lag, so hands down I like I like the mk3 more.

cars in japan are all restricted by a 276hp limit set by the gov.

sorry, thats not quite correct

there is - was - a 'gentlemans' agreement between the major manufacturers of Japan that they wouldnt exceed 206kw/280hp
however, whilst the manufacturers still quote outputs on their more powerful cars of 206kw, many are above this figure
i believe the next couple of years will see releases of new cars which will openly disregard the 206kw 'limit'
you will find that many industries in Japan are self regulated, which often leads to cartel like situations - what the industry regulations are and what actually happens can be very different.

perhaps you are confused with the govt improsed 180kph speed liimit on JDM vehicles?
 
I like the last gen Supra RZ. Its looks has grown on me more and more, although it still has a fat ass.

they just look like a celica on riods if you ask me

Do a little Celica/Supra research and you might understand why. To me atleast though, they look nothing alike. For any generation after the Celica Supra.

The gentlemans agreement has pretty much been disregarded for this years models.
 
I like the Celica/Supra the best. It just looks so fantastic. :dopey: I want one in real life BAD!

That's the same with the top mortorcycle manufactures. They were having a top speed war and created a similar gentlemans agreement not to make anything faster than the Suzuki GSX-R 1300 Hayabusa( about 200mph top speed from the factory ).

Now on topic my favorite supra on the game is the 97' RZ in black. Not many Supras around where I live ( only have seen 5 in 10 years ) so I haven't realy followed them much.
