Honestly I probally drive my car 20 days out of the year, and when I do I take one of our dealer plates because insurance cost $450 a month. Its not a practical car by no means but luckily for me I have my other car to drive
Love the black 15th, but that red one doesn't look very good to me. Just my opinion though. How much rwhp you pushin on that black one?
I have always loved Supra's, but...If you want to drive it every day, get the Subie. It's a great car & plenty fast. Plus, there are a ton of great parts out there. I've owned a lot of 300+HP cars...VW's, SRT-4's, M3's, and now tuning my Volvo S40 T5. I have to drive mine 100 miles a day, so it has to start every time. Supra's are unbelievably fast and beautiful, but you wont feel that way when it's on jackstands 5 days a month. IMO, get the newer car & buy an extended warranty on it ASAP. Then go start finding out just how much air & fuel you can push through that STi motor.
first of all, have you ever drove a 500+ hp rear wheel drive car? have you done it in the rain? have you bought gas and tires? trust me on this, for a daily driver the subie is the best option. the supra is a wicked little sled and will run like a spotted monkey. unfortunately, the first time you feel like getting spunky with it, your likely to be looking at where you were instead of where you want to go. its lots of fun and supras are well known for BIGGGGG numbers on a dyno. they are some of the best track and drift cars, but have you ever drove a turbo car daily? have you ever been stuck in the rain in a racecar? get the subie. even high powered subies launch insanely well and it is all wheel drive so it will be a ton less likely to spin out on you and it you can tune it to your taste of oversteer versus understeer with simple suspension work. supras are nice little toys, and if it were me i would get it and find an old beater to knock around in, unless you want the power all the time just to get tickets.....
btw my dad has a Z06 and it is awesome, as long as it dry and the road is hot. i drive a mazdaspeed protege on a daily basis and i hate the turbo for practicality. i cant lie it is awesome for power, but it is annoying at times.
