well it depends where you're driving I guess, I've been seeing supras all over the place, but I drive through almost every part of the city on a regular basis (except for millwoods and the southeast..) I've seen a lot around where I work on 170th street, also tend to see them on the whitemud, calgary trail, or around the north side - there seem to be a lot in that area.

I love the fact that our cars are rare!

I love how people see my car and don't know what it is. That's sweet!

As I said earlier on this forum, I usually get comments like it's an old ferrari in bad shape, or it's an old lamborghini in bad shape, or it's an old ford probe in good shape :)

I don't see that many supra guys but it doesn't bother me much, and the guys I do see are never affiliated with the club. I think I saw Mike's car once, and Marc saw me once... and then helped me push my car to the side of the road. That's it though!

It's a big city, guess I can't expect to see a few specific cars when there are so many out there.

Cheers,

Tim

Hi 1jzsupra,

I doubt you will see many functioning turbo cars in Edmonton. There are a few around town, but like the unicorn, they are never seen. This is primarly due to the car deciding to break down at the best possible moment! :lol:

I have a Rare MKIII but she fights me to the end. I am currently contesting with my second blown turbo in a month. Right now the car is sitting in the garage thinking about what she has done. :D

I do see alot more MKII's on the roads than the MKII's. I normally waive at the other supra's or say something to them at the lights. Most times I get a reply. I think if enough people do it, it will catch on. :D

However some people are just plain odd and will look at you as though you have 3 heads when you try that.
