The Toyota Supra, my favourite car.


In 1993 Toyota developed the new Supra. This car is really made for speed. For example, the car got a 3.0 litre, 6 cylinder turbo engine which can deliver 330HP.
This car can accelerate in 5.1 seconds to 100 km/h and got a topspeed of 282 km/h (This can not be reached because it's limited at ±250km/h). With these statistics, the Supra is faster than a Porsche 911.

The large front lights makes it easy to drive in the dark.

 

 

 

 

 

 


Alright, some more things.
The weight of this car is 1606 kg, that means 4,9 kg / HP, and that is really not bad.
The engine drives the rear wheels. Those wheels are 255/40 ZR 17 inch (front is 235/45 ZR 17 inch), and (off cause) made of aluminium. The suspension is, for a wheels, a double wishbone construction.
The air-holes in a the side are needed for cooling down the break fluid and the differential oil. The one in the hood is to cool down the turbos.
The car is enhanced with traction control (which can be switched off, if you like), ABS and electric windows. The spoilers pushes the car by high speeds to the road. The front spoiler comes out at about 100km/h, but can also be manual be let out (useful if you wash your car.).
The second turbo works only if you press the gas pedal to the metal, if you drive calm (which is very easy), the second one doesn't do much.
When you accelerate to, lets say 200 km/h, you may hear a loud 'klonk'. This is when the front spoiler comes out. Normally this goes slow, but when you accelerate fast, the spoiler got not enough time to come out slow.
The car got 6 gears, and those work fine. The car uses about 1 litre petrol on 6.3 km. that's nice.
The audio system in the car sounds great because of the many speaker in the car. If you have some more money, you can an aluminium roof which can be taken off by nice weather. (price $ 2150,00)
The price for the car is (only) $ 88677,00.
