First of all, its an auto b/c my only criteria for the "right" supra was that it had to be turbo and targa, the transmission was of little car to me, it is true, however, that the auto holds boost pressure better between shifts than a manual can.

As for how I got the car... well I decided I wanted one more than 2 years ago and I researched and researched. I looked on auto trader and ebay at least once a week for Supras in the carolinas or at least the south east. I kept searching and searching and the right one came up for sale in NC. It was very rare for any to be sold in the carolinas so it was a bit more than NJ or CA Supras, but I got it anyway. I got it thanks to my dad, he gave both me and my sister a certain budget to use to get a car when were were 16-18. I know that it is not very respectable to get handouts like such, but everything is relative. Anyway, I'm not one of those teenage braggerts that is always saying they got their Supra when they were only 17. This car is not a very practical car for a teenager and/or college student with no job or income, believe me, but don't get me wrong, the Supra is sweet car and I'll never take it for granted. I chose this over many new cars and I'm still happy with my choice, I wouldn't have it any other way (unless I could get a BNR34 Skyline GT-R V-Spec II, hehe) and I plan to keep this as my daily driver through college.

Here's the cars they need to make bodies for IMO:

STi or WRX (I drive a WRX, so it's gotta be #1 )
EVO (4 or 7, but they'll prolly make the 8)
SRT-4
350Z
RX-8
RX-7 (FC > FD)
Hachi-Roku
New Celica
Eclipse GSR
VW R34
MazdaSpeed MP3

Hopefully they'll only stick to sport compacts, cuz once you start including cars like Vettes, Vipers, Mustangs, and GT-40's... the list would be too long!

I still want to see a 944 or 968 porsche of some flavor.

The front engine - rear transmission 4-cyl porsches were incredible cars in the right hands. Until you see how one compares to the same year 911 on a technical track, you will never be able to fully respect how much butt one of these cars can kick, and fear the 3.0L 4-bangers the 968 had , especially the ones in the turbo s model

I was giving props to the guy with the supra, but that's great that you have a M3. What year? The v6 is beastly.

Back on topic I'd like to see
MR2 sw20 (veilside kit)
Eclipse (blitz kit)
350Z (veilside kit)
Evo 8
WRX STi
New Celica would be fitting because it's in compettion with the RSX.

These two would be most fitting because they would fit in the same class as the Supra and Skyline, well maybe not skyline.
RX7
3000GT VR4
