Car Reviews » Toyota » Supra
The Toyota Supra was produced from 1979 to 2002 and is a sports car/grand tourer. The Supra was designed as a replacement to the Celica, and was slightly longer and wider to than its predecessor. The Supra is also based on the Toyota 2000GT. The Supra is an iconic sports car and has been used in video games, movies and music videos.
The interior is snug enough for the driver and the front passenger, however, space in the back is tight for rear passengers. This is due to the sloping rear window, and the shelf like seats. Access to the rear seats is also difficult. The seats are comfortable on shorter journeys thanks to the soft leather. The firm suspension can make longer journeys slightly more uncomfortable. There is a reasonable amount of space in the boot for a car of this type. The driving position is good, due to the different adjustable positions. However, there are a number of blind spots due to the thick rear window columns. This could make reversing and overtaking difficult.
The car comes fitted with a number of added extras that make the car easier to drive. These include limited slip differential, traction control and also independent suspension. The supra comes with cruise control and heated front seats. The Supra has a large body coloured rear spoiler and the front spoiler has large air intakes. Safety features include ABS and power steering as standard. The Supra also comes with twin airbags and traction control.
