Fastest Ever Toyota ?

June 17, 2003

A simple question.

What is the fastest ever Toyota.

Road legal. Factory Produced. No Mods. For Public Sale.

What wears the crown for -

0 - 60 mph

Top speed.

If its got to be road legal that kind of cuts down on the options! Could it be one of the rally cars? :huh:

most likely would be the Toyota GT one

Had to make at least one road legal one to homogate it for international endurance racing, which they did...

I was going to say the GT ONE but wasn't sure if that ruling was still active, I guess it is!

I didn't really want to get to specialist with this - rally cars etc.

The idea of the post was to see which car from Toy history had the best performance in standard format.

I was thinking more of a car that anyone could have bought (if they had the money) i.e. it was no great secret - you could have got one from any Toyota dealer at the time etc.

What is the fastest standard car ever made by Toy (and what are it's stats) ?

Surely it's one of the Supras ?

I would say that the fastest toyota that you are looking for would have to be the - :thumbsup: TOYOTA SUPRA 3 LITRE TWIN TURBO - with a standard 320 bhp :D and a 0-60 time of close to 5 seconds :eek: and a electronically fixed top speed of 155.(all times and power is estimated to be right)

In theory anyone with the cash could have bought a GT one from a dealer...

In road legal form it developed 600bhp, did 0-60 in less than 4 seconds and would exceed 200mph. The cost was US$ 1 million.

Failing that, the fastest Toyota would have to be a Supra.

Well, TECHNICALLY.....

Norkep has a Toyota Aristo twin port twin turbo that is a factory car ( limited edition I understand) but he says its 600bhp in standard form. and passed my buddy chris at 175mph on his way home after japfest! (this was on the track at castle combe, obviously racing fro the gate! :!Removed!: )

0-60 I think is something like 4.5 so this would technically cane a supra in the same standard trim... You'll have to take the detail up with him as I still p :censor: ss myself laughing at the thought of a genuine 600bhp from a straight 6 twin port twin turbo... but I'm just jealous :drool:
