Initially, the Supra was not designed for outright performance as it was heavy and had just about adequate power. But things changed with the launch of the Supra Turbo in 1987. Soon, the Supra started to gain reputation for the performance it offered in the sports car segment. It was powered by a 3.0-litre, straight-six petrol engine which produced 230PS of power. It didn’t stop there. In 1993, Toyota launched the Mark IV Supra, or the A80. The fourth-gen Supra was completely redesigned as Toyota wanted the sports car to be a serious high-performance car. It now featured a more rounded body shape which looked modern and yet, echoed the proportions of one the most iconic Toyotas ever, the 2000 GT. It was offered with two engine options, a 3.0-litre, naturally-aspirated, inline-six making 220PS/320Nm and a twin-turbo version of the same 2JZ inline six-cylinder engine that produced 276PS of power and had a 0-100kmph time of 4.6 seconds. In 2002, however, Toyota decided to pull the plug on the iconic sports car. But by then, the Supra had a cult following. So much so that it was the star car in 2001’s The Fast and the Furious movie. Remember Paul Walker driving the spruced up orange Supra on the streets of Los Angeles?
