Black has always been an option, along with tan, or grey.

Good idea.

I'm kind of weary since there is a cannister muffler on it. I feel like it some punk kid that ragged it out. the one you bought looks new and adult driven.

So what do people do with this car? Motor wise? Do they install a turbo kit on the 2jz for get the the TT 2jz motor and swap it in?

There is a guy near me with a black one. it's really nice. it's turbo but not sure it's the stock tt 2jz. Sounds amazing though...like a high performance supra. One of his friends said it was a 1jz but i'm not sure if he knew what he was talking about. It's not that fast either though.

I got to give it to you though, it's a classy looking car, looks like a sports car and luxury coupe. Very appealing.

Na-t, tt swap...doesnt really matter....I've been running across 800rwhp sc's using the ge block. (block is the same as the tt motor, crank isn't forged like the tt engine though, and of course the compression is higher....) Most na-t guys just swap in a thicker HG to drop the compression a tad, add ARP headstuds, and boost the snot out of them. Myself, i'm at least going rods/pistons for the bottom end. maybe a gte head/intake swap. or maybe just an aftermarket intake.
