The A80 Supra was a hell of a performer, even stock. The A90 has BIG shoes to fill.
All maybe true, but most people just think 2JZ and 800 hp when they hear Supra. Even the A70 had some kinda neat suspension tricks for it's day. But in the tuner world, IMO they were thought of as power cars for the most part.
