I've driven both the Toyota SUPRA and the 86, and the differences are quite noticeable. The SUPRA has incredible power with its turbocharged engine—step on the gas, and it rockets forward with acceleration like a race car. However, it's significantly more expensive and a bit wasteful on fuel for daily driving. The 86 is much more affordable, featuring a naturally aspirated engine that makes it light and nimble, perfect for drifting with plenty of room for modifications—great fun for younger enthusiasts. In terms of handling, the SUPRA leans toward stability, especially at high speeds, while the 86 is more spirited, offering more excitement in the corners. Neither offers much space, but the 86's rear seats are slightly more practical. Overall, the SUPRA suits seasoned drivers chasing speed, while the 86 is an excellent entry-level sports car—economical, durable, and loads of fun.
