Default Well...

The MK4 Supra is a RWD sports car, while the
S4 is a Luxury/Sport saloon. Depends on what you want. Personally if I could, I would get an S4 which is very classy, quick, and tunable (hey, for short of $4K you could pick up two K04's, a chip, and exhaust and make nearly 400hp). Now the Supra's twin turbos are usually dumped in favor of one large turbo (but that is understandable as one large turbo is cheaper and the Supra can generate the exhaust gases to get the turbo spoolin around 3K rpm's). What kind of car do you want? Both are very tunable, one is great for the drag strip, and boulevard crusin; while the other is great for a quick romp, lookin good, and attracting attention (besides it will be a new car, opposed to any used/abused Supra you could pick up). Get what you like, man.

Default Re: Well...

Ya, i love the s4, but its um like 40 grand! lol
I want to buy a house and stuff. lol
Besides If i could get a 97-98 Supra, i could spend half the money and get twice the car, performance wise anyway.
I have read alot about the supra's and i am a member on the supra forumns. This car is virtually bullet proof, and **** its a monster. My girl thinks im stupid for buying an s4 so early. Maybe she is right. I dunno anymore. I just want power!
I am addicted to it.

It's not good if your friends' approval is more important than what you actually like best....
