Default MkIV Supra or brand new EVO/WRX?

I was just discussing with a friend this choice. MkIV Supra turbo in darn decent shape, or brand new Evo/WRX?

Each have their advantages, and are different enough to have only going fast with a turbo and huge stock wing in common...

Evo has a pretty good AWD system, its lighter, more practicallity (space), better gas mileage (very debatable, thats a grey area), if you keep it stock (or as close as possible; I know its hard), you have a 10 year warranty. Smaller engine with almost as much potential as well.

Supra however...arguably the best looking car ever made, buttloads of potential, targa will please on a summers day and supposedly 'get all the girls', the "omgitsaskyr--errr--Supra!!!!" factor, and proven reliability.

I included WRX because some people prefer the WRX over the EVO for their own reasons; for those people, its the choice of WRX vs. MkIV

I saw a MKIV TT today, and it made me love Supra's all over again. It was seriously sex. All stock, even the rims, but it had a fucking shiney front mount, with some nice turbo exhaust. It was jet black, on chromies. Ahh sex, sex, sex!

IMO it doesnt matter how the warranty is, Mitsu has been having problems but agreeable they are good cars with a lot of potential.

Think that one is self explanatory.

MR2.

Supra based on looks, cool factor, if I could actually use my sense when buying a car obviously the Evo for reliability, warrant, NEW, rattle free.

But a Supra feels like a fast luxury car, big, heavy... I miss the feel of tiny little roadsters, etc.. so much more fun to drive.
