Theyre now going to justify a cheaper Toyota branded FR RWD 370z fighter

Supra?

How do Supra's handle for the most part anyway? I know with 10+ year old technology they still outrun 350z's, G's, and other cars in the same category of it from today in a straight line.. It would be funny if they handled as well also.. It's doubtful obviously, just wondering.

I'd rock the hell out of an IS-F, I'd still buy an M3 over it though. For a car like that, it has to be true manual, plus the BMW has much more heritage and respect behind it's name.

the IS-Fail like the amg outgun the m3 in a straight line, but when it comes to corners, tracks and handling, the m3 is still the king. the cts-v with 550hp lapped the ring faster, but it's got over 100hp more.

they handle okay, I never got any understeer...the car just needs wider tires stock. I have driven z's and g's and IMO I like the way the supra felt better.

I saw an IS-F on the road about a month ago. It looks pretty nice from far away.

you know how much they cost back then too? i think the NA was like 45k and the top of the line TT was like 60K (i maybe wrong though) and a stock NA supra would be behind a Z/G in a straight line, a TT supra stock would probably be toe to toe with a Z/G.
