Yes the VR4 is heavy, BUT nowhere near slow.

All the mid 90's Japanese Supercars ran close to the same figures 0-60mph and qaurter mile.

Around 5.5sec 0-60 and 13-6 to 14.00 Qrter mile, depending on driver skill.

I have owned both a Supra and a 3000GT, and although I love the overall feel of the Supra. The raw nastiness of a GTO twin turbo AWD launch gets me everytime.

I personally think the Supra has a sportier Supercar feel to it, as far as interior creature comforts and seating our concerned, but the VR4 has the more muscular looks, and the Monster power to back it ALL up.

You can line up any Supra/300zx/RX7/Skyline/3000GT, and it will be a tie between the Skyline and the GT all day...especially the 60ft times!!!!
