  1. FAO thebourne=Really?! why?..i went in one two weeks ago , my cousin went to test drive one ..damn quick! and held it together brilliantly in the corners but he just couldnt justify 200 grand! he had an uprated F1 modena before and was hoping for amazing things with the 430 but was really dissapointed, he now looking at other options like an ascari,lambo or high power turbo'd car thats still ok as an everyday driver.
  2. well ok let me rephrase it...whatcar would anyone get if they had 200k...(any car whatsoever)
  3. you'd rather have a supra? are you nuts.... lol:clown:
  4. Arrrggghh! Yes ok it would be great to own a supercar of any kind but the point im trying to make is for the money id take the supra...plus if someone gave me £200k for a car....i wouldnt blow it on an f430! When you could get some of these: Cannonball Vanishing point supra 22k Aston martin V8 vantage 90k Lamborghini diablo VT 60k SRT-10 ACR Coupe 600bhp 79k Porsche 996 GT3R - Championship Front Runner 79k Mercedes SLR McLaren Coupe 03-06 2006 182k XJ220 RHD (1992) 139k if however i had spend all of it on a car id get smokey nagata's v12 supra....or this(yes i know its a replica!) http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/809167.htm (and a full tank od fuel)
  5. ummm different...huge torque! http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default.asp?storyId=19420
  6. christ micheal! (calm down its only a commercial!) lol ! Iwas only saying for the money id pick a supra, I.E because you can have a decent 600bhp supra for less than say 17k aposed to blowing over 150 k on a car, which yes is more technologically advanced and has F1 flappy paddle gearbox but would you really be happy knowing youve wasted that much money...then again if you r were a millionaire you wouldnt give a rats arse..granted. But we all have to admit on here...it feels good when our 3litre underdogs beat a 150+K supercar, whether it be a porcshe, ferrari or lambo..
  7. id buy a detomaso pantera GT5S over an f430..but i im just nostalgic
  8. The LF-A is a 2-door exotic concept car built as a prospective halo car for the Lexus division. It debuted at the 2005 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS). A revised version with more completely furnished interior was unveiled at the 2007 NAIAS as a possible future member of the Lexus F marque performance lineup. Toyota has given the LF-A concept car the green-light for production.[2] Prototypes of the LF-A had been spotted being tested at the Nürburgring, the famous motorsport race track in Nürburg, Germany. [3] The production vehicles are expected to carry V10 engines, [4][5] putting the car in market competition with the Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari F430, the Porsche 911 (997), and the Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1. Pricing is estimated at $225,000.[6] In 2007, Lexus GB director Steve Settle confirmed that both a V10 and hybrid version of the LF-A would be produced.[7] The hybrid version, combining a petrol engine with electric motors, would likely feature a V8 powertrain similar to that designed for the Lexus LS 600h L. An uprate tuning package is also in development increasing output to 650bhp, costs for this are undecided.(8) [edit] Racing on the Nürburgring A Lexus LF-A prototype was entered on 10 May 2008 on the Nürburgring 4 hour VLN endurance race where it surprisingly won the SP8 class[8] with 6 entrants, as all others failed to finish. The best lap time of 9:06 on the 24,4 km version was about 40 secs slower than the best Porsche GT3-RSR, and about on par with Cup-GT3. This resulted in finishing 77th[9] overall among over 200 teams. The Lexus took also part in the 24 Hours Nürburgring [10] on 24/25 May 2008, with four Japanese drivers including Akira Iida leading the team. As car no. 14 [1], it qualified 27th[11] among 223 cars, and finished 7th in the SP8 class of 11 entrants, and 121st overall, with a best lap average speed of 163 km/h, compared to 175 of the fastest cars.
  9. What have i started! lol. Last yeah i raced my bpu supra st shakespeare raceway and wooped an ferrari f1 modena, sounded mint, however didnt go like stink...I still reckon theyred be a few cars on here that would keep up with f430, even on a track....has anyone seen that red riddox supra on youtube??
  10. toyota/lexus wanted the new supra(so to speak to be under the lexus badge, as it was to be theyre flagship car. Hence the LF-A hybrid, 510bhp. Its not in production however they have been using it as a race car.
  11. ive got a tascam X9 and cerwin vega amp and speakers...and still the 1210s sound better..but as i said dnt get me wrong the cdj's are wicked!!
  12. (laughing my a!rse off here). What the retail on one of those? do they come with legs or do I have to blow the legs off myself? (BPU)
  13. dont get me wrong the cdj1000s are wicked in every sence, but with digital you lose some the depth and detail of the original sound/tune/sound, where as with vinyl its all there
  14. yes Nagata (sorry about spelling). Theres a vid on youtube of a riddox supra hammering through bends on some track, the driver is awesome, i beleieve with the right driver a high powered, track prepped supra could lick the a55 of a f430...
  15. ...hahaha. Smokey owns TOP SECRET, he's aiming to achive 250mph is his v12 supra.
  16. exactly thats what im talking about...and its funny too...when people see a bright red shiney ferrari cruising through town they often just think....prick...but the supra gets genuine interest...( if u know what i mean) And if someone mental offered me a f430 id sell it and buy smokey nagasaka's V12 supra!
  17. 1210's all the way. I do have a set of cdj1000's but the sound is almost clinical, no depth even on a good system, those denons arent bad tho, good stuff.
  18. Morning All We all love our supras and wouldnt be on here if they werent our pride and joys, but certian things i read make me realise just how special they are... We would have paid anything from 2-20k for our cars which undoubtably have amazing performance for the money but when i read this below: knowing the f430 is over 150k! Id pick the supra every time..plus its even better knowing some of of the supras on here would eat the f430... youve gotta love the old sup!!! The F430 holds a 4.3-litre V-8 that develops 490 bhp at 8,500 rpm and 343 pounds of torque at 5,250 rpm (important detail for the true enthusiast!), with 0-60 mph in 4.0s and a top speed of 200 mph. Let’s just say it’s eye wateringly quick, and the closest any of us are going to get to driving an F1 car on the open road!!
  19. Theres only so many carebear's you can love in one nite.....
  20. from a designers point of view..i can honestly say blind people havent got an eye for detail, however may very well possess the ability to design something good if they could see....however they cant see therefore they may struggle in this department....
  21. haha! ok...if someone had a gun against ur head and you had to pick a mint uk spec supra 6spd in black or that yellow mobile meccano set...what would you pick?? do you feel lucky punk??
