At this rate, with the quality of concepts and production cars that Subaru is coming out with, it seems that the brand might start to consume some of Toyota's own sales. I wonder how the company will react, if the FT-86 and some of Toyota's own tourers start to dwindle in sales due to directly competing with…

My question is, how much will insurance cost for this thing in Canada, especially in Ontario where we have some of the highest rates in North America. The car might cost you under $30,000, but the insurance will probably be somewhere over $2,000 for someone over 25. I guess the only people I will see driving this…

This, is a car and a real one at that. A slick body with a reasonable amount of power at the time, manual transmission and reliability so you know you will make it back from work during the day and the track on the weekends. This car has resulted in some great offspring, from the further versions of the Supra, to the…

Forgot the picture and the edit command is missing (this is a picture of Stacy in her stock form, my baby).

Boo-yah! The Soarer/SC is one of the greatest cars of the 90's, it was far ahead of its time, so far that the engine is still in use in almost every Lexus ever made to one degree or another. This car is a legend, yet often hidden in the shadows (the chasis for the Supra, is actually that of the Japanese Soarer, which…

They didn't legally own the rights to the name, the name has to be used actively within the period it is registered and registration has to be renewed every ten years, it does not last as a copyright would. The Malaysian team claiming the rights in fact purchased an expired right to the name, that was not being…

The Lexus/Toyota SC400/Soarer 4.0GT with originally a limited output of 250hp and 260flb raised later to 290/310 and that was with the restrictive factory parts that were intended to stick to Japan's unofficial gentlemen's agreement of staying under 300hp. This car developed the chasis that would be used by the Supra…

That is actually off by quite a bit, it is in fact number 6, followed by Rockliffe Park in Ottawa, Forest Hill in Toronto, Bridle Path in Toronto (where the average family income is over 375,000), Westmount Montreal and Rosedale Toronto $444,000 average family income). This also excludes the lakefront area of Oakville…

It's hard to give up the power of an eight, cars as interesting as this one make it that much harder. At least with the money I save, I can put it back into the Lexus (Lextreme engine overhaul to get about 600hp N/A with a 6spd manual is about $12,000-$15,000).

Toronto

lmao, I can't believe I made that mistake. I was writing something about water to someone when I was also making this post, I must of had a Freudian slip moment.

Posted to wrong thread, sorry

That's what I was saying, the place isn't that small in terms of population and in terms of wealth, it is one of the wealthiest places in the country with some of the most expensive homes at that (waterfront estates=massive money).

I agree, it's a town, but not that small as many people and governments technically consider a location with more than 100,000 residents a city. It's a suburb though to a larger metropolitan area and one with a population of about 5.5 million. I live in the 50th largest in the world and 5th in North America, so I get…

I should have added, I don't have a problem with hybrids, in fact I need to get one or some sort of super-efficient car to replace my current ride, as I am paying $120 to get a mere 450km per tank. That said, the Volt is a pretty as this guy...

Re 2nd Gear: I've now seen quite a few Volts driving around Toronto and I have to say, I wish that I was temporarily blind, they are even uglier in person than I ever imagined. The funny thing is, I saw my first at the exact time that I saw a dealer driving one of the new McLarens a day before their official release…

That is.. F&^&ed up, this is probably the most horrifying one I have ever seen and considering I've lived in a few countries and have seen many of these sorts of adds (such as the Canadian smoking ones), when I say this is the worst of all, that is saying a great deal.

I keep telling myself that I need to get a car with better mileage, my SC400 burns through water like it were a case of gun powder sitting on top of a fireplace. How can I convince myself to get a Yarius, Prius, or CR-Z for commutting, when they keep on teasing me with cars like this... I don't want to stop driving a…

There is, especially in Vancouver... on the bright side, if you need a clean needle the municipality is more than willing to give you clean ones for free (yeah, our Canadian tax payer dollars at work).

Oakville isn't that small a town, though it is more of a suburb for those who live in Mississauga and Toronto. Also, there are some pretty big "Timmies" around the GTA (Greater Toronto Area), though those usually end up as parking lots during the warmer weather for the Jalops.
