Dunno bout you but i dont see 2 many supra's that can do 250 mph...

Like i sad this car is 9.7 in the 1/4 being severly undertuned... A street legal supra is gonna around 9-10's... So, it wouldnt be womping on this car...



Best part is i cost a 1/3 of a bugatti... lol

I think that just plays into that whole mentality some people have of

"well, instead of buying a 50k dollar Corvette, I can buy a 4k dollar civic, drop 20k into it, and smoke a Corvette in the 1/4 mile"

yes, this may be true, however, you are still in a 4k dollar car. ya know?

I mean, I love supras, and to have a 9 second supra that could beat a Ferrari in the 1/4 mile would be fun, but if it came between owning a ferrari or a 9 second supra, I'm takin the Ferrari hands down.

Re: So yea, i just purchased this car..

Huh, it's only $548,000.00... considering everything, that's pretty cheap for the worlds fastest production vehicle.

I find it funny that the Shiek's in Dubai pulled out a Veyron to compare the 2 cars while closing down their freeway I wish I was oil rich

Re: So yea, i just purchased this car..

the carrera gt was stopped in production in 2006.


the Carrera Gt9 "9ff" is a custom car, not available for mass production.
