Love "1987" Style



In 1987 I fell in love with the Toyota Supra. The styling had changed just enough to to yank at my heart. Though I have never had the pleasure of actually owning the car, I still possess the brochure for it—in mint condition—to this very day.


Rear Wheel drive, 3.0 liter in-line 6, 200hp, and a ( not so great ) addition of a turbocharged engine. I know that this car had it's difficulties primarily attributed to head bolt torque specifications which led to blown head gaskets, however, the fix was easily repaired by later released specs bringing the car back to the nearly indestructible Toyota level of quality.

All encounters with this car, be they in person or photographic, still avert my attention to this day. Does anyone ever forget a love?
