Why, they both look the same crumpled up at the end of the 1/4 mile on fire.

What do you mean? People compare them all the time, in fact, in the back of `High Performance Imports' magazine (Issue 31, brother obtained it somehow), under `Rivals' for the Supra; `300ZX, GT-R, RX-7, Porsche'. Supra 1490kg, Skyline 1500kg. Supra 13.7sec, Skyline 12.9sec.

Technically the Supra was the Celica at one point in time, but when the Celica became a FWD economy car, the Supra forked off into turbo RWD territory, with two doors, rwd, and a 3L twin-turbo. I wouldn't complain if someone gave me one :P

No cage & untubbed i smell b/s. I doubt there'd be a track in the world that'll let you run under a 1o without a FULL cage let alone run a low 8 sec pass without one.

Supras are an awesome looking car, Personally i'd go for one of them over a skyline, too many skylines around these days, Half as many supra's
