COTW - Toyota Supra MK3

Since I seem to start every post with "it's been a while" I'm thinking this should have been a COTM feature.

After this, on with the business at hand. This car of the week has a rather famous name, Supra. But instead of the one we all know from the fast and the furious, it is an MK3. The one that looks like a mid-size space ship designed in the 80s.

So why would one want one of these ?
Well first of all it has pop up headlights, which add an instant cool to the car.

It's been made over a quarter of a century ago, which means you can get it as an old timer, making the road tax bearable. How does 75€ sound instead of 7600€.

Now on to the car. Of course it's rear wheel drive, it has 2 doors, 4 seats and an inline 6 which used to have 280hp when it rolled from the productionline some 25 years ago. That should be enough to make the 1600kg beast move swiftly.

The inside styling is splendid. Have a look  :
