By the end of 03, there is going to be competition on the road, with all the 50+ new cars coming out next year. Exciting year!

 

Check out the Sept. Road&Track special on 2004 possibles:

*2004 Supra V6 with 280hp around $30k, V8 with 350hp for $45-50k* Not exactly sure about the hp for the V8 the mag's at home.

 

I love this modern-day horsepower war! It's fantastic, and much better than the muscle-car wars of the late 60s: this time we have cars that handle and stop, too! When an average income person can have a choice of such incredibly powerful and sexy machines, this is truly a great time to be a car (esp. sports car) enthusiast. I wonder if this is a rare time in history and it will all end soon (like in the 70s) or how far this will go? In 15 years will we all have 600hp supercars, or 90hp 70MPG diesel or electrics?

Well, whatever the case, we have our Zs now, let's enjoy it while we can!

 

Well... the new Z from beginning to end was all "real."

The Supra... no concept, no real engine to look at or be familiarized with... just words.

I still like the last generation Supra turbo though.... but it was a tad expensive and hard to find.

 

There's a guy at my workplace that has been having a major midlife crisis. He drives a huge F350 4WD Crew Cab Long Bed (with cap) every day to work, or his Harley-Davidson when the weather is nicer. He traded-in his red Corvette when he bought the F350.
He could be trying to compensate for something being small.
