Toyota Supra Photos Gallery
The New Toyota Supra featured a 3.0 liter, inline-six engine producing 220 horsepower in the naturally aspirated models and 320 in twin-turbocharged form. Although the early Toyota Supras were fast, Toyota's newest generation was a true supercar. The 2002 (last year of production) turbocharged, Japan-spec variants could achieve 60 mph in a mere 4.6 seconds and sprint a 1/4 mile in 13.1 seconds. The 1998 (last year of foreign market production) American and European models reached 60 mph in 5.1 seconds and the 1/4 mile in 13.9 seconds. Despite its quick acceleration, the Supra was known most for its un-parralleled handling. The turbo version was tested to reach over 291 km/h (181 mph) all-stock, but the cars are restricted to just 180 km/h (112 mph) in Japan and 250 km/h (155 mph) elsewhere. European versions also had an air intake on the bonnet (hood). Drag coefficient is .31 for the naturally aspirated models and .32 for the turbo models and N/A's with the rear spoiler.
