OC Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Beautiful Supra. I really like the styling and the green calipers. I've been on supraforums for so long now...it's fun to finally see someone with deep pockets really tackle a Supra project and finish it well. Too often people cheap out and the cars are never really "complete", i.e. looks, power, interior, exterior, handling, etc. Yours is VERY well done. Congrats. I'm thinking of SILV08...I'll let you know. -Olivier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm highly particular about my cars, and this one has a few imperfections that I'd like gone. Overall, the car looks wonderful, but I'd like it PERFECT. As for SILV08, I'll be there.

VegasSE Report post Posted March 1, 2008 Very nice. Is it anything like this on the street? His is faster than mine, and in Vegas the Sun is so intense that the road is sticky, even now. Everything hooks pretty well down here. I think he's in PA so nothing will hook as hard there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GBGallardo Report post Posted April 10, 2008 Now the Gallardo has smaller twins so the throttle response is more instant and it doesn't take long at all for the turbos to spool. The Gallardo is much more responsive and much less picky about what gear it's in. Obviously the awd makes it a car that any moron can drive. You basically gradually dig into it through first and by the time you hit second it's full throttle, pull the shift just past 7000 and hang on. The Gallardo is VERY VERY easy to drive compared to the Supra, and much less tempermental under all conditions. Sick ride! WOW! Is your Gallardo an EGEAR or Manual Gearbox?
