I'm going from a Audi A3 2.0 FSI ambition with full exhaust system and custom remap (+-170hp) to a dark Red ft86 and only fix the tail lights to red ones.

Only thing that worries me is the interior.. it looks good on pics but im scared of what quality it will be.. i've been looking at quite alot of other cars to replace my audi but i always get dissapointed with the interior

Im coming from a 155hp/140tq RSX base and I find that this cars engine is only enjoyable if its just me in the damn thing and using manual operation to scoot about. I hope this car feels better by a big margin but I doubt it. We'll see next year.

Also I think I know what's your problem. You took a fast car and made it faster then you realized you hardly ever use the extra power? If I had a Supra Turbo I would leave it with the already great stock horsepower and torque. It has a terrific 0-60 stock IMHO.

Who's thinking the same?
I'm looking at a blue 6spd, tinted windows, TRD body parts, exhaust, intake, breaks, and I will be going after aftermarket rims and calling it a day...maybe some upgraded sound.

I am going from owning an aristo... So pretty much 4 door supra.

So its going to be nice to get into a car that won't handle like a boat. Pretty much what specs u want but with white on white te37. Then after a while when turbo kits come out might add that on.

Yeah I like the 370Z but it would be the base model with the sport package and that is $35k now. $5k more you can get the nismo 370z which looks way better than the standard 370z. They finally added an oil cooler in the 2012 models I was hoping they would have added direct injection to the 3.7 liter VQ in the Z and the G, but not yet probably in 2013.

I still say the FR-S\BRZ is gonna be the best deal...plus its a hell of a lot lighter.

I just saw that the Nissan Juke can pull a 0 to 60 in 6.4 secs with only 188 HP and 3157 pounds of weight. This gives us hope that the FR-S\BRZ will be closers to 6 secs or less....

Thinking EXACTLY the same!! Although I'm not getting rid of the Supras. Those will be weekend warriors and project cars. Dyno sheets still bring joy to my heart!

Doesn't take much to make a Supra TT faster... like 200$ in used parts... mainly a downpipe and a boost controller....
