hogmaw Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 Before Jurgen & Co lick their lips, she's based in the USA. She has her sights set on this beauty: Not bad for your first supra Now I'm thinking that it's too good for her! Serious! The last thing I want is for her to go killing herself in a 400+bhp supra, esp when I KNOW first hand she is a shit driver. So what do I advise her? Forget about a supra, get an NA - or go for it? Serious question btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraAyf Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 They have to pay so much more over there. Nice looking car though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 If she really is that bad a driver, please suggest to her to get a slower car! I have a 180bhp car at the moment. VERY nippy when you want it to be, but easy enough to handle. I know some bad drivers, and they can't handle MY car - let alone something with over double the power....... an NA is much closer in power to mine - if it has to be a supra then an NA would be a good start. However, it's only if she is a bad driver - and depends on what power she's currently used to I suppose, and if it's RWD or FWD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 She will think I am being patronising if I suggest she gets a slower car. Her last one was a Celica a few years back, since then it's been the odd hire car. We went out in a Mustang in CA last summer, which was shit slow btw, but she still managed to make the ride quite scary, not good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mas Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I seriously wouldn't recommend a Turbo sup to any one who never had a fast/turbo car in the past, but she might be fine with NA though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juanchan Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 I seriously wouldn't recommend a Turbo sup to any one who never had a fast/turbo car in the past, but she might be fine with NA though. My supra is the first car I've driven/owned with over 120bhp and the first with turbos. So long as you respect it and take your time to get to know it, you should be fine. I can't talk on behalf of hogmaw's lady friend, but it does sound like she's had a few decent cars in the past. That said, I'm sure there's a difference between a stock TT and this one with 450bhp!
