You've really exposed yourself as a mega-fanboi and all around idiot. I guess you suffered some serious brain damage from all those times you smashed your Vipers into walls.

LOL..WTF are you talking about. Numbers don't lie. Doesn't really matter WHY the supra was porduced in low numbers. The point is they WERE and are more rare than the VIPER or the NSX. Thats a fact. Stop trying to interject your OPINIONS as FACTS. Right now the Supra is the most sought after used car of the 1990's Import supercars and has kept its value so well that even KBB re-adjusted their pricing to account for that. It was built to compete with the RX-7, Corvette, 300ZX, and 3000 VR4. Even WITH the non turbo the units imported was still at 10000, less than HALF that of either of your cars.
Although, in his mind it looks like this
FACTS = KILLEMALL'S OPINION
Facts strain his little brain, so don't bother using them. He throws logic out the door the minute he wakes up.

1500 rwhp for the Viper is no problem. The supercharged ones are pushing 900-1100rwhp and the TT's are hitting 1700-2000rwhp.
Unfortunately, in the mile events the torque is blowing up the transmission, so despite the bigger rwhp numbers from the Viper, they haven't been able to effectively use it and the Supras and Gallardos have been cleaning house. The power can be used through the short quarter mile however

While TT Vipers are the "RWHP king" at 1700-2000 rwhp, they can't keep the power going through the drivetrain in the 1 mile events.
No build has been able to keep the torque from exploding the drivetrain, so the Vipers have done poorly in the 1 mile events despite being able to make the most power. The TT Gallardos and TT Supras have been kicking *** at the 1 mile events.
If the Viper could hold the power, I believe it could take the 1 mile crown with ease, as it simply overpowers everything else out there, but that is a WHAT IF, as no one has been able to do it yet for the full mile.
Now in the 1/4 mile, there are a few 1700+ rwhp Vipers that have ran 7's on the 6-speed. Pretty sure the record still belongs to the Viper, although the Supra is known to steal it away every once in awhile as it can also run 7's on the 6-speed.
Last time I checked, the Viper had the record by a tenth or so

Also, give me 2 points for effort for trying to reorganize what Killemall said in legible and semi-readable sentences. Even my head hurt AFTER rearranging what he said.

Some of us like to build our cars not buy them. I wouldnt be happy buying a Z06 and not making it faster. Id buy a supra for the sole purpose of building it. Theres no fun in buying a car from the dealer, running a time, then sitting there like you accomplished something.

So clearly Killemall is admitting the Viper's shortfalls! Lets give him a break as he is finally admitting the Viper is not the best car in the world. Some change is finally arriving within Killemall's brain

How many supras were produced in Japan..turbo and non turbo..How many were produced in the states turbo and non turbo..In short how many Toyota supras were made...
saying 6 k and forgetting about the other non turboed and japanese supras dosent count.

Oh and for killemall's satisfaction, there were ~11,300 Supras sold in the US from 93-98, turbo and non-turbo making it a pretty rare car. I've seen maybe 2 in about a 10 mile radius from where I live that are driven on the street. I've heard stories about someone's got a shell but I don't really count that. However, I'm sure there are some places where there's quite a few.
