You think a 2jz powered supra is less reliable than an fto?If you want to buy a car based on how it looks than you do that lol.Toyota makes some of the most durable engines in the world and the na 2jz motor can easily do 400 000kms if maintaned well.Mitsubishi engines are crap compared to toyota engines i wouldnt recomend a mitsi to anyone (except an fto)so just because you think a fto looks better than a supra doesnt mean its more reliable.Sorry if my reply was harsh but dont say a toyota is more reliable than a mitsubishi.

How many people have actually driven a supra? Or do you all just base your opinions on what you hear? Perhaps the older members here have, but what about all you p-platers?
I've driven a supra and loved it. If I could drive turbo, I'd be in a Supra.
In saying that, I do still love my fto and definitely prefer it's looks.
Yea my mate is an idiot and bought an NA Supra. I told him to get an FTO... Now he has to live with it for another 2 years hahaha.
But lack of power aside (compared to TT - still as fast as mine in a straight line almost), it's a great car with a strong drivetrain. Transmission was 10 times better than mine (both manual). Couldn't get over it lol.

Does anyone consider a wrx (turbo) to be a good car?
YES. huge success on various motorsports. However, the drivetrain is the weakest link. I would buy one and own it for awhile.
And the styling is done by some art and craft high school students. Notice the rear of Imprezas have never change until the recent one. This shows how lazy they are. BUT, I would buy one and own it for awhile, just to get the feel of a 4wheel drive sports car.
Other cars which i want to own after FTO is the S2000 or 350Z, maybe ended up with an evo.

Ive driven a na supra and they go hard especially in manual. They are heavy but accelaration wise they are far from slow.Wrx are nice but the gearboxes are sh*t and they are very difficult to work on,parts a really expensive too.

Evo:
Pro's:
Can be zippy
Rarer than Lancers
Quite a few cheap parts can be used in it
Cons:
Cannot be nice
Doesn't grab attention, except from homo holden drivers that want to race ya
Large interior
All angles it doesn't look nice
Overall a box on wheels, good substitute until you can drive an R35
Wow you really have no idea do you?
"Can" be zippy? big lol at that
Large interior is a con? Why on earth would a larger interior be a con? "Hey guys want to go for a drive to NSW?" "Oh sorry you're going to have to squeeze into my tiny 2 door coupe instead"
And why would you be comparing a $25,000 car to a $150,000 car? That's just retarded...
