Now, the cars which have been the best eyecandy for me, meaning polished and nice engine compartment and repainted in the last three-four years all seem to have 400 bhp or more... Some even 600... So my question is, are these cars really driveable on the street?
And yeah, I know the smartest thing would be to test-drive a lot of cars first, so I would have something to compare with, but I have to go abroad to test drive the car, I?m interested in, so it?s not really a possibility to do often...

Yes 600hp Supras are really driveable on the street. Since they depend on the turbo, they produce a very tame amount of horsepower unless you mash the gas (aka accelerator) pedal down to the floor and let the rpms get up over 3.5K

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
