Hi everyone

I know - like going into M & S and shouting "Woolworths" but it's time to choose one of the three. :confused:

I think the Supra may well be the one but comments would be welcome.

Its a no brainer mate :p

 

Actually, it depends what exactly your looking for in your next set of wheels. Let us know then we can put in our 2p worth ;)

Just like to point out that whilst I (and the vast majority) on here obviously prefer the Supra, these three cars are ALL fantastic cars in the grand scheme of things - all are high performance head-turners, which always grab my attention when I see them on the road.

I remember a magazine a few years back now did a road test, it may have been redline but certianly not Max Pants or Fast Cr*p.

 

They drove and tested (power, 0-60 etc) the Supra TT, GTO, 300ZX and the RX7 TT. The Supra came out on top, second was the RX7, and 3rd/4th the other 2 (cant remember what order).

 

So based on 4 neutrals drivers reviews the Supra was the car they would have chosen for a daily drive.

I have always felt the older Gto's and the 300ZX are awful looking cars. The last of the Gto's was an improvement though!

It was redline......still got the copy, was partly the reason I went for supra funily enough as I was after a zx :) it they were all red barring the zx which was silver if I remember correctly ;)

It was Revs. I still think Revs of that era was by far the best magazine going. Simon Hargreives took on the 300ZX as a long termer and got a severe wallet raping. The GTO had a duff second turbo and the RX7 had starting issues.

 

The RX7 has to be a consideration too.

I seem to recall some of/if not all were supplied by Magnum cars. There was a great shot of the RX7 being towed by one of the other cars!

 

Agree with Gazboy - you cant rule out the RX7.

 

Mikeyb10Supra - yes they were all Red and the ZX silver, not the best colour for the zx made it look very dated next to the Supra and RX7.
