Message After all... Toyota had a whole 3 years to design a car to compete with the Z... which had the undisputed middle income sports car title since 1990...

Of course they used the Z as the bench mark....

I must conceede that the Supra is the better performer of the two... braking and acceleration are superior... and as we've seen... the Supra takes to aftermerket mods alot better than a Z does... sorry to burst your bubbles... but I don't see ANY 9 second street driven Zs around. :-(

BUT... it totally misses the mark in the style catagory... which is why I'm not driving one.

Let's put it like this... in 20 years.... the Z will be remembered for it's ahead-of-it's time design... and stunning beauty.... the Supra most likely... will not.

Not many cars can stay on the production line for 10 straight years with little more than a new nose and wing to keep it fresh. The Z does this with ease.
