supra handels beter due to a shorter wheel base, an the lexus was designed from a luxury sport ride ..where the supra is a pure sports car.

I wouldn't agree with that statement.

The Supra was built with "sports car" in mind, but it's a good example of a 2+2 touring car. To say that the Supra has the upperhand in the "handling" battle because it's a real sports car doesn't make much sense. The cars are basically one in the same, except for the obvious wheelbase... I'm not arguing with the fact that Supra handles better, only that it isn't a TRUE sports car.
