Gee. I want a 1500 RPM power band that starts at 6500 RPMs.

I'd like to have a car that makes the same amount of horsepower at 4000 RPMs as it does at idle.

I'd like to have a torque curve that gets so violent at speed that traction is a distant memory - which is exactly what you want when you're playing catch-up.

I think Supras are great and all, but it's awfully pathetic to hear, "oh yeah? Well, let's go from a 90-roll!" from any sort of automotive enthusiast.

Wow...the ignorance...wow. What is the Supra...magic? Does it ride a flying carpet down the track? No matter how fast you make one, I can show you an American V8 that will blow its doors off. It's physical power to weight. At those power levels you could driving a brick down the strip, doesnt make a lick of difference. And have fun driving your 9 sec supra around town. And seriously, what was that from 90?

Nah, just sick of "SUPRA OWNS!!! I'm so Fast and Furious arrrrr!!!" videos.

I have a great video of a turbo'd K-Car blowing away a Supra at the track, its hillarious.

And yes the GN owns the Supra, and pretty much anything with 4 wheels. Mostly because they retain a lot of streatability.
