In Laymens terms

big, expensive and quick

 

hmmm, it wasn't so 'quick' when i saw it couldn't get right past it though

 

biult on the supra chassis iirc, but much heavier, and have slower engines, think they get a 2.5V6TT instead of a 3.0 like the supra
more 'luxurious' than the supra, but thats lexus for ya

 

hmm depends which one really im sure they got some versions out in the US with 4 litre engines or maybe it was 3 either way they are pretty rapid and smooth mahcines

 

from the figs ive seen they quic as feck 0-60 like 6.3 secs and top 150

i knew they had a 4.0 litre motor in them, tbh they seem quicker then that book figure and are smooth as feck

 

dam knew i shouldn't of changed my guesstimated figs! lmao

 

Bloody quick motors, friend of mine has one, never raced him but i`ve been in it, only automatic car i`ve ever been in that was scarily fast, floor it n the back tyres just lit up!

 

Yup, quite quick, airbag suspension etc

 

well we both floored it off a round-a-bout, i couldn't get past him, but he couldn't get away!!, he was 3-4 cars lengths infront, till i backed off at silly speed! met him at the next set of lights an he gave me the thumbs up, laughed n launched it away from the lights again! (me following again of course!) quite fast though! the tyres lit up after the round about!! he tried to loose me with his smoke screen i think!!!

 

I've driven two types of Soarers, but there are more.
I know of a 3.0 n/a, a 4.0n/a, a 2.5TT, and a 2.5T VVTi.
Maybe there's more.
They weigh around 1.7 tonnes, bit lardy, but classy
