Unbeatable Supra
I'm from Dallas, Tx. and about 1 1/2 years ago my brother in-law(worked for towing service, towed for Garland PD) told me about a Supra in police custody in Garland. Supposedly the only way the cops got the owner was finding and arresting him as he came out of a store. From what we've been led to believe; they could not catch this car. The cops say that they had clocked this car at no less that 230 mph. This car was destined for the crusher. A silver supra very similar to the one on the first The Fast and The Furious. About a month after the proposed fateful day I heard rumors that the Toyato corparation had "aquired" an unbeatable silver Supra. I was elated by this news, but am still unsure. Does anyone Have any possible further information.

Quick question, when did the tooth fairy start giving out jet engines to supra owners, and a set of wings? The only way a supra could reach that speed is if it was dropped out a plane at 30,000 feet. The first F&F supra only had about 670 HP which is not even close to reaching anywhere near that speed.

Re: Unbeatable Supra
First of all I said that I looked like the Supra from the F&F. Secondly anyone with any sense will realize that your car can go as fast as your bank account. The reason the cops were after this car is it was one of the top drug runners around. The drug industry doesn't want their stuff to get taken and they had obviously put alot of money into this car.

Re: Unbeatable Supra
I think you could push a supra well over 230mph. My friends 86 scirracco wil hit 176 off a little 1.6L four banger and a jetta transmission. I've gotten my 1988 Supra to hit 166 before the engine shut itself off.

Re: Unbeatable Supra
Lol, 230. Not even the Veilside GTR can do that, and it's running 1600 CHP.... Lol. Unreal.
I have seen an RX-7 run 215 mph. Then again, that WAS at bonneville and that WAS before he crashed and totalled the car.

Re: Unbeatable Supra
dude, if it was in the Local Newspaper (around your area) and you proved us wrong, than i would believe you. BUT...BUT you just had to put in that Supra from Fast and the Furious. No Supra on the street can hit the 230 mark dude, there's gotta be at least $100,000 under that hood (lmao).
