Hi,

This is wonderful car. actually when the time that i see this legendary i thought that this is the right car deserving for me. I can say that this car was right for me because it sad to say that the tall dark and handsome guy like me will only buy a chip car. And i conclude that after this few i am going to buy one of this cars.

i have see the next generation supra in some web portal. To be honest i think l more like the old supra that this new supra.the design for the new generation supra look ugly. but the new genaration supra will be a supercar from toyota.because you know la…. they will upgrade the engine,for sure they will use the F1 technology.

yeah, the supra is definitely a torque crazy beast…both in NA form and the Twin Turbo…. I've tried an auto NA supra MKIV, and though its specs may be humble compared to the TT, you just HAVE to try flooring the thing out of a corner!!!! i emphasize HAVE coz there's seriously nothing else like it…its tame when u want it to be, but push it to the lower gear, progressively accelerate and the car gives a controllable amount of slip that puts a freakin' big smile on your face…i guess with the TT, its best not to do so hehe

Straight line acceleration is sweet…though revs aren't that high, the nose still pulls up….yep, its a dream car for me…trying to save up to get one…apparently quite a number of MKIV Supras are up for sale…though mostly are 93 models upgraded with 97 parts…

.oh yeah, 1JZ's and 2JZ's work well on mid 90's E class mercs.

I have the money to buy one of those cars, but I can't decide to buy a Nissan Skyline GT-R, Toyota Supra or Subaru Impreza WRX STi!!

One may wonder, given that these cars are so legendary on their own, can they ever be replaced? IMHO, these cars became 'legendary' partly because they've no 'all-new replacement models' to replace them. Instead, their engines are always updated, esp with the wide availability of crazy after-market mods. These cars, if there has been any 'new models' introduced in previous years, were mostly subtle styling changes. And the rest of the updates were under the hood. To me, there can only be one Supra, or NSX. I can't imagine a new Supra, with totally different shape and size altogether.

i've seen the R35 for quite some time now. It doesn't give the same aura as the R34 but is sleeker compared to it. More of, look at it from far and it looks tame, but go nearer and u see a beast being unleashed with every closer step.

As for the NSX, I'm yet to hear of a replacement. This is an excellent choice of a supercar as it probably is one or/of the best mid engined car(s) ever to come out from Japan.

As for the Supra, it is what I call a tiger hidden under sheep's skin. It is one of the fiercest cars i've ever came across and the TT version will just haunt you similar to how a 360 will come and pounce you from behind. Another excellent choice of a car.

By the way, I think these 3 are legendary because they have a certain identity and has some form of engineering excellence which separates them from the rest of the Japanese supercars, the other 2 being Evos and Imprezas which are in the class of their own.

Great read!

No issue Paul…Well they are not boring of the AP saga…just that its became a 'hot yam' where its too hot to handle by 1 individual minister thus its being thrown here and there…once there's another updates or unveil of more secret…they will never shout boring but instead chanting "we want more ~~~"

Dear Paul,

Good job! Why not include Mitsubishi Eclipse and Spyder?

Check this website too :http://www.mitsubishicars.com/MMSA/jsp/index.jsp

I like the new Eclipse with 263hp V6 engine 3.8L Front wheel drive.

abu: I might go into details later. I had to rush this post out because some of my readers have been complaining my blog has become boring because of all this Proton-AP stuff.

Ford Cougar is Japanese meh?

I am blogging about these 3 cars because later I want to blog about the 3 replacements for these 3 cars. Doesn't mean the other Japanese sports cars are not 'legendary'
