I agree... the Supra still looks good. The RX-7 too for that matter. They look like they could have just come out. The 300zx and the 3000GT do look a decade old on the other hand.

Saw a white Supra yesterday in a parking lot. It was all standard, didn't even have the wing on the back. I thought it looked good, but head to head I'll give the FD the nod in the looks dept. over either the Z or Supra.

the supra is just an attempt to be a 300zx killer. It is all personal opinion, I suppose.

The Supra indeed was a Z & FD killer. The Supra really gained its advantage over the Z when it came time to upgrad the turbos. With stock turbo's on both cars the only advantage the Supra had was its larger injectors (555cc vs 370cc on the Z) which allowed them to boost to higher llevels.
My Z w/ intake, ecu, full exhaust and at 16lbs would run consistent mid 12's b/w 113-114mph and with its 80 shot of NOS ( and upgraded clutch) was an 11.6-11-8 car at 124mph. Not bad when you considered how few mods it had.
That being said if I could purchase one car with the intent of modding it would be the Supra. Having a factory built bottom end that can withstand that amount of power is incredible.

I am not a big fan of the kit on that supra ^^
My favourite is still the TRD widebody, it looks natural on the car and it's nice and smooth.
These are the best pictures I found, I didn't look too hard though.
