93. Toyota Supra 1978-2002 Japan

The Supra was a sports car/grand tourer produced by the Toyota Motor Company from 1978-2002. Though no longer in production, the Supra remains the most popular Toyota among performance enthusiasts. Great handling, powerful engines, and remarkably easy to drive, the Supra was a pioneer. It was the first Toyota to feature electronic fuel injection. It was also one of the first cars available with a turbocharged engine and antilock brakes. Though the Supra began as an enhanced variant of the Toyota Celica, the name became its own line in 1986, when the third generation debuted. The third generation was impressive, but the fourth generation would be the pinnacle of Supras, the Supra Turbo. While rumors abound regarding a fifth generation, nothing has been announced yet.
