      Review

       In my opinion, the best car in GT.  This thing corners like
      it's on rails, has great accelleration and looks cool to boot.  I
      found myself able to push this car a gear higher through some
      turns than I would expect and the oversteer is very predictable.
       This car is has about 200hp more than an SVX S4 I tested, but
      it also weighs about 200lbs more as well.  The Supra GT was
      pretty consistantly 5sec. faster PER lap than the AWD SVX, and
      only .4 sec slower in the 400m than my 955hp AWD Skyline Vspec.
       On a side note, this car differs from the White Castol Supra GT
      that can be purchased as the Toyota Special Model in that it has
      about 9hp less than the White(655hp) one, but weighs the same.
