I went from a suzuki jimny quite heavily modified for off road use with low ratio transfer box big mud tyres etc etc, its over a foot higher than a standard jimny, not a performance car in anyway shape or form with a high powered 82bhp at my right foot to a Twin turbo supra i'd only been driving just over 2 years had my supra a year now
i think the supra is a relatively easy car to drive and very stable at speed and through the bends and i drive mine ALOT and try stay away from dual carriage ways and stay to moor roads twisty and bumpy makes it alot more fun
i wouldn't worry about the jump up just need to have respect for the car and just drive within your limits, i do find the supra a very confidence inspiring car and like to drive it what i would call hard
fuel consumption is high though, i spend on average around 12-1500 a month on my fuel, but like i said i drive mine alot and hard
