Default Decided to buy a different car then the S4

For some time now I have been considering buying an S4. What is not to love? 250 horses, Quattro, gorgeous interior, great looks, very practical, and easily tunable. I currently have a bmw 330i, and the switch to the S4 would be seamless. However, I have been thinking for some time what I realy wanted. The reason I wanted an s4 is primarily for more power. Then i looked at upgrades, and I would want a 12 second car idealy, and it just takes too much money to get an s4 to that level, im sure you guys can agree. Instead, I have decided on a toyota supra. I know, big difference from 2 fine european sedans, but I believe in my application a supra twin turbo would be a much better car. Very sporty, great realiability, and easily tunable. I found a supra with a bigger turbo and body kit already on it, in yellow for 32,000 and it has 600 rear wheel horsepower. This is obviously something I can not pass up. Even though I did not purchase an s4, after being on these forums for so long simply reading what everyone has to say has taught me a lot, and an s4 certainly has my respect. Atleast there is one more person out their with some knowledge of the S4 and what it can do. When i get the supra if anyone would like to see a picture of have a ride, if you are in the Orange County area, no problem, plus i would love a ride in an S4. Thanks for the good times

If your looking at getting a 12 sec car, you made a great choice. The TT supra is a f'in machine! Good luck with it and have fun.

Default I would definitely be interested in a ride once you get it...

plus a friend of mine is an awesome Toyota tuner in case you decide to get even nuttier with the car. Good luck!

Well that isn't a bad choice, however, I don't think a E36 M3 will ever be in the same performance realm of a modded supra. I have spent some time on www.supraforums.com just educating myself about what these guys do to their cars, its not unheard of to see guys complaining about their cars running 11's and 10's.... supra's are simply crazy fast
