It's really really really heavy. Compare the IV to the III, and there's... well, no comparison...

ok lets look at this....

4-Speed A341E automatic
Wheelbase 2550 mm (100.4 in)
Length 4515 mm (177.8 in) (1993-1998)
4514 mm (177.7 in) (1999-2002)
Width 1811 mm (71.3 in)
Height 1265 mm (49.8 in) (1993-1998)
1275 mm (50.2 in) (1999-2002)
Curb weight 1460 kg (3219 lb) (non-turbo)
1581 kg (3486 lb) {turbo}
Fuel capacity 70 litres (18.5 US gal)[2]

Toyota Supra Mark III

GA7x
JZA7x
Engine(s) 2.0 L (1988 cc) 1G-GTE I6
2.5 L (2491 cc) 1JZ-GTE I6
3.0 L (2954 cc) 7M-GE I6
3.0 L (2954 cc) 7M-GTE I6

the MKIII is wideer wheel base and longer than the MKIV and MKV. but it is narrower.....and is a bit taller.

the MKIII weighs less. granted not by much but still it weighs less.... and topped out (depending on motor and tranny choice)at about 280 ponies and 272 ft lbs

the MKIV and MKV 320 ish ponies and 315 ft-lbs

Nawwwww

Your FB looks decent, most FB's do not. I actually think yours is one of my favorites. BUT, you haven't seen DKJ's TII Vert. O M G, it destroys any chance any FB has at being sechsay. It is pure orgasmic.

I had a pic of it somewhere, but I can't find it

i have driven plenty of them. not impressed. they just dont feel right.....

they feel far to much like most of the other 90s ish "sports cars" out there. that were product of late 70 early 80s real sports cars that ended up gaining a ton of weight which of course in turn fucked the whole deal up

There's only one way to settle this then.

Mountain run!

The FC's handling is far superior to that of the FB. Doesn't help the FB any with their 13" wheels

The garage (oh yeah, and house) is coming soon. I just found out the wife can work with an interim TS clearance. The scooby might have to wait a month or two, we'll see. It's gravy, I'll have the room to start the FEED conversion!

Is it bad to say I still want that new car? Chris, you know you can get a new WRX for 275 a month? That's pretty crazy.
