Doesn't the Lexus SC430 get classified as a sports car?

You can make a SC a sports car, but it's more of luxury GT car out of the box.

My payments on my GTO will be done in 2008. Hmmm. I just might have to get the first one that arrives @ my dealership.
I have heard lots of Supra rumors since the last gen went away in the 90's. Hopefully this (or something similar) winds up a production vehicle for '08.

Is it 2+2 seating like the last Supra, or is it just a 2 seater?

If this car comes out no offense to the tc because it has treated me well in the past year and a half but PEACE OUT! I would do anything to own the 2008 supra. Your talking about a legend being reincarnated. Even if the V6 comes N/A im sure it wont be long before turbos hit the after market. Not sure if i would be willing to risk my warranty though. The car is absolutely beautiful its perfect its everything i ever wished toyota would do.

TRD might come out with a turbo kit or a supercharger kit for the 2008 Supra and it shouldn't void the warranty.

MSRP + Markup + Insurance Cost + Gas Money + Maintanence = Bankruptcy after a year!

Owning a sports car sucks sometimes...gotta be really rich to own one of these bad boys.

Just park it till it's payed off, then you won't have all those extra costs.

when the bank owns your car you have to have full coverage no matter what. then you can't even enjoy what your paying for thats no fun.

yeah, then you don't have to worry about wrecking it either!

Of course, the part that would kill me could be under "Insurance Costs," Speeding tickets, and the Ins. hike that goes with each one. I got so many speeding tix with my ex's V8 Firebird, that the insurance on my egg is $200 a month!
