The lump means the engine! 
So Riz got it half right when he said "Ahhh the classic jap sports car, 2.5 twinturbo?".
I've got alot of respect for the Supra, but it is also one of those cars which I wouldnt drive because I would be too scared of it swapping ends.  |

[quote="a guest's guest"]my supra.. and the generations before and after the one i have.
-a lot of pple dont know what these are.. so if you do, impress me.  [/quote
I used to own a 2.8 Celica Supra flared arched ,wide wheeled digital dash model With the Lotus suspension. Finished in Toyota Super Red, it was the mutts nuts! Its one of those cars that you wish you hadnt sold.
I have not owned a 3.0 supra but have driven them plenty of times as i was always the one out of my friends who didnt drink so got to drive the car on nights out. It was quick but was also very heavy and felt Lardy after my 2.8 .
I also used to own the original MK1 Celica 2000 mustang shape but sadly the British weather ate it!! |

thats awesome that you've gotten to experience both of those gens.. the celica supras are really a treat to own, and are hard to sell. such beauts if kept in tact, the fender flares are just awesome on these cars... those things are monsters with the 3.0 7mgte engine in them. |

Since being a small (scaring my mother kind of) girl I've wanted
1967 AC Cobra
1934 Citroen Traction Avant
As a grown up I'd include
pretty much any Beemer 
Triumph spitfire MKii
and the Phaeton

Well, I love my car for its' looks, but it's not the fast version.
I have a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse....the non turbo version. Beautiful car especially after some modifications I've done to it, but no speed.
If I could, I'd get another 1997-1999 Eclipse, but the AWD, turbo version. Soooo SEXY!! I'm in a club that involves these cars....that's how much I know about them and love them.
Any AWD, turbo car catches my eye. The Mitsubishi Evolution VIII is a sweet car, but not sure if it's quite my style.
The Nissan 350z is a beautiful car, but it's not turbo from the factory. I have my eyes set on getting one in the future, but then again, I'm thinking if I should go with my desire for the pull of a turbo car. |

The Eclipse you're referring to is the GS-X. The AWD turbo. Badass car, but HARD to find in good condition.
My dream car is the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII. Badass car. Its kinda in between. I love the Evolution, and the 2000 Nissan Skyline GT R34 V-Spec 2. Damn thats a long name LOL |
