Good God...that's awesome!! I know you had to have cussed it at least 6 hours per day.

Be fair Rob, this is the car MODEL forum, that's got to be a real car, right?

Amazing work man, the engine detail really had me wondering about whether it was really a model, and I love that C/F decalled body, you brought it off perfectly!

Gotta say all that effort payed off, thats one of the nicest supras i 've seen on this board!!

The best Supra build I've ever seen. The CF body is great, but your custom turbo and piping just kicks ass!

This is the kind of stuff that inspires me to polish up on my own modeling skills.

Super nice build!

I'm overdrawn at the superlative bank, so with apologies to Napoleon Dynamite:

"Yeah, it looks pretty sweet. It looks awesome. That car, it's... it's incredible."

Hey man.. i reaaaaaaaaaaaally love your car.. i have both supra to do something like it.. but using Tom´s supra.. so.. let me know.. what size of sakatsu lens did you use??.. 2,5mm 3,0mm...

Thanks.. and.. damn... this is a masterpiece..
