tony tt Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Well i collected my car tonight from the garage after getting a water leak fixed i brought my girlfriend with me because she is not insured on my work jeep so she had to drive the supe home. Its the first time ive sat behind my car when its been driven and i have to say how fu#ki#g sexy do they look from the back and it sounded totally different from being in the driving seat. The fat arches make it look like so strong looking i never realised how great they look We got out the town a bit and then i realised we were going the A14 way alarm bells were ringing and rightly so got down the ramp onto the carriageway and my girl planted the shoe and buggered off and left me. I wont ask how many leptons she was doing mind you i dont blame her i would have done it too. It sounded fantastic as it screamed away. I think im falling in love with my car again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I couldn't believe the road presence the Supra carries. I had never noticed any driving about until after i got one. First time i saw mine moving was when a mate took it for a run and i had exactly the same thoughts as you. Seen a couple out and about now and they really do look smashing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Yeah, had same feeling when my lass drove mine, I kept overtaking her & the slowing down just so I could see it from all angles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony tt Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 I know ye dont get to see the other side of the coin from the drivers seat. The looks of it and sound is just great nothing out there compares to the shape its a very individual and unique car. Well done to all for being a part automotive history!

DanBEXsupra Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 i still remember the muscles contract around my mouth as i saw the supe on the drive of the guy i bought mine from, turned up in my 1.2 punto! its was the first time ive ever been intimidated driving a car too. i fell in love with the car!

tony tt Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 I know the feeling i came from a 300zx tt to the supra and i was well impressed when i turned up to collect it. That must have been some buzz going from a punto to a supra mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Very True, lines and curves are still up there with one of the best cars EVER. BUT You let the Gf Drive the Supra???? :woot: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbleapple Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 and how did the car look??? I knew that was coming and I wasn't disappointed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 That's part of what I like about going on runs with the club - I kind of forget just how good the Supra looks and how wide it is from the back. Certainly one of the most dtriking cars on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgoo Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't think there is a better looking rear on the road than a lowered soop with spats and wide wheels. They look soooo menacing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSK Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 The lines of the Supra flow nicely and gel the whole design toegther very well. I have yet to see a clean stock/near stock Supra on the road as the 2 I have seen were not great, a very tatty J-spec and another J-spec with a ridiculous body kit on it. I always admire mine when walking to and from it in car parks, the huge rear end is quite nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angarak Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 Its not just the rear that looks impressive, I had to pick up my uncles car and get my mate to drive my supra back. A supra in the rear view mirror is equally as impressive - looks very intimidating even from a distance, just has loads of road presence IMO.

suprastu Posted September 23, 2009 Share Posted September 23, 2009 I'm loving this Thread! Not only do I love to see my Car when my Wife drives it (obviously I follow her to see she's not racing anyone lol), but I'm not ashamed to say that I have a quick glance at the reflection in windows! Even today the Supra shape looks fantastic. Has anyone else noticed that because the Supra has a strong road presence, that people make a point of accelerating as quick as they possible can, past you. Even if they are driving diesels! Audi drivers in particular seem to feel very uncomfortable having a Supra in front of them. Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT You let the Gf Drive the Supra???? :woot: I had to mate she isnt insured on my work jeep so i had no choice in the matter! Her eyes lit up like spot lamps when i handed her the keys mind you i did warn her to be sensible which went out the window when she hit the A roads i enjoyed watching it so it wasnt that bad an experience. If it was a single it would be a different story entirely mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
