It's hard to fathom how far we have come in term of car tech and performance. When the first F&F came out, a 10sec car was a huge achievement even for modified cars.

Now any new supercar are 10sec cars and their higher end V12 powered are all 9sec cars. And there you have Tesla pushing a freaking stock family 4-door SUV that can do 1/4miles in the 9s as well.
All 3 of these model 3's beats a stock MK IV Supra.


Performance (AWD), 457 hp and 660 Nm: 11.7 seconds
Long Range (AWD), 367 hp and 510 Nm:12.2 seconds
Standard Range Plus (RWD), 296 hp and 450 Nm: 13.8 seconds

Remember the saying. There is no replacement for displacement... technology.

Tesla is the end game for that statement.
