Default Ever wonder how much longer the SC is compared to the Supra?

I always wondered how much longer the SC is compared to the Supra, today at work i finally got the chance to park next to one and find out. It looks like the SC is longer by a trunk.

I've got one for you - brb.

Edit: It lost it's host.. it was a picture of SW's SC3 and Peter Blach's 98 Black MKIV parked next to each other. It was an *** shot - that picture alone made me understand the resemblence.

When I was at Exact motorsports, my mechanic, there was a red supra that was in for an engine rebuild, well it was parked rear first into the slot and i parked next to it in a similar fashion. Well i can tell you that the resemblance in the front is very very apparent. too bad i don't have a camera phone, i woulda taken a pic.. <- still has an old school nokia 8890

I wouldn't go that far - those taillights and wide fenders are priceless, but to each his own.

I like things about the supra... but the issues are a bulky look dependent on color and a busted azz intereior as compared to the lexus lines and amenities.

I've seen some cleanly "modified" Supra's... but from the side and a 45 degree rear view... buttt of that car looks enormous,... Toyota has a bad habit of abrubtly choppin' tails on their cars... like the new Solara... looks dope from the front, and even the side.. but from behind... ewwwwww!!!!

Now women with a big azz, and small waisteline.. that's different.. but cars... no dice!
