My freshman year room mate at college had/has a ~700whp Supra. After rebuilding the engine and upgrade the turbo/fuel system/electronics he drove it a total of 1200 miles in about 4 years. I've ridden in it a couple times and its real fun once you give it some gas, but if he doesn't put on some sort of slick/semi-slick tire on the car it just spins the wheels and goes sideways. He also got it in automatic to make it a bit cheaper (no clutch upgrades) and a better drag car (4 gears vs 6).

It all costs a LOT, but some people are really into that kind of thing and his parents helped him out a lot (they own an indy repair shop).

But nothing beats completely dusting some guy in a random souped up jap rocket (including STIs and EVOs)
