There's nothing spectaular about the Supra, its a rather pug-looking car, and is quite benign in stock form. What is amazing is that their stock engine is essentailly a racing spec block with cylinder walls thick enough to dive a deep ocean trench.

Its this attribute which allows them to be built to handle an insane amount of power. I honestly WISH that an american manufacturer would drop a race-spec block in one of their street machines, seriously detuned... essentially what the supra is. Its not about technology, its about metalurgy.

For example, one cylinder in a top fuel dragster makes as much power as the most potent supra engine... if you can build it, they will come :D
