                          C4 Vette         '94 supra
0-60 mph (sec)              6.0               4.9
1/4 Mile (sec/mph) 	    14.2/98.0         13.5/107        
Top Speed (mph) 	    158               155
Braking (ft.)(60 - 0 mph)   135               109 
Lateral Accel. (g) 	    0.89              .98
If history is any indication, then I have no doubts that toyota can build a competent competitor.

(Thank you for allowing me to magazine race for a second)

There is no reason to use 12 year old data. I am sure with those magical internet searching hands you can dig up some current stats on the C6 Vette.
