....it is still the only book in print that is devoted to the Toyota Supra. As a Supra owner, myself, I searched for years to find something, ANYTHING, that focused on the Supra. Personally, being a Supra fan and seeing how nothing else was available, I jumped at the opportunity to get a copy. The book has a lot of great reviews and comparisons with other sportscars (such as the Porsche 944 and Mitsubishi 3000GT) but be warned: it literally looks like you're reading a magazine (a black and white magazine). For magazine readers the books in the "Performance Portfolio" series are great, but if you're looking for an actual BOOK on the history of the Supra, you might not like it. In my case I cannot complain; I like magazines (especially R&T) and at least I have something informative to read now.

This book wasn't worth the money, especially after waiting 3 weeks for it to arrive. Many of the reviews in the book don't give the year of the vehicle in the review and I had to keep trying to discern the actually year from the picture of the car. My advice: wait for someone to put out a better book.
