Launched in 1986, the Supra replaced the Celica XX as their newest sports car that uses the same rear-wheel-drive platform as the Soarer. Known in the commercials as "Toyota 3000GT" because it's basically the spiritual successor to the legendary 2000GT, the Supra is powered by a choice of a 3.0L turbocharged engine, a 2.0L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine (seen here), and NA versions. A 2.5L Twin Turbo version replaced the 3.0L in 1990, producing 280PS of power which is the maximum allowed for Japanese cars at that time.
Now that I got to know about one of the coolest Japanese sportscars emerged from the twilight of the Showa era, let's give the Supra a quick whirl to see what's what. Let's get it!
Job well done. There's nothing else I can say it.
Enjoy your new ride!
