I dig it man - very tight, very original. I have no criticisms whatsoever. Way to do what you wanna do and step outta the box into something totally original - I can appreciate every part of that! Keep up the nice work.

How much did you pay for that!? Dude that car is still a supra and a toyota. Thats up there with rice boy's putting honda badges on their acuras and vice versa. I dunno i'm not trying to mess with you but I think that money could have been better spent. To each his own though. At least it looks clean and a good job was done.

Default sc440 is on ebay

Hey if anyone is interested in my car it is on Ebay, I have decided to sell her, because I have another project going, and she is taking up space......and yes, I can change the emblems and put new Supra/Toyota emblems back.

Here is the link:

No eBay links

5. No auction style posts (take it to eBay). This includes links to auctions on other sites too.

Depends on the size of the turbo, right?

i like the back, and the sides. i'm more interested in the engine specs, it needs to be a contender to the muscle car race between bmw and mercedes, if it is NA then let there be room for turbos/schargers.

hey Supra SC...i love what you did...even tho it is pretty obvious that it is still a supra (back end). But i was wondering how much dinero/$$$/cashmoney/blingbling/benjamins that took to create. Btw...i think it's cool that you used Lex emblems. Lots of Toyot Windom owners do the same. Btw...how'd you make the 440 emblem?
