Ok, so the mpg is pretty terrible. But is the car worth the money spent on gas?

Terrible?

If you THAT conserned about mpg go buy one of those honda insights

Supras are supra, if you can afford a supra, and want one, you can afford the gas to put in one.

How are you seeing terrible numbers here? If you don't drive with a brick of lead on top of the pedal, and have a GOOD RUNNING car then you're better off then probably 80% of the big HEMI driving idiocy I see overpopulating the roads.

i was kidding when i said auto's arent real cars, but c'mon, how far is that from the truth. there is nothing to driving an auto. as long as you can find the steering wheel and the two pedals, you know how to drive an auto, and you mnight as well be driving Geo Prizm or Ford Pony or whatever. Auto's are slower, too. Im sure you agree with all this.

oh, dont be a poor sport. at least auto's still get you places faster than walking.

It dosn't matter if its auto or 5 speed, its that adrenaline rush you get and the urg to yell at the top of your lungs when you get from 0 to 60 in a heart beat.

Its the best feeling in the world regardles of the transmission you have. I own an auto turbo and an 5 speed turbo with the exact same mods and they both fly up in down the long beach highways.
