Dude lay off the pipe and stop blowing smoke. Found a Car and Driver article from their archive on the 1987 Toyota Supra Turbo. Top speed is 145MPH. 200??? What are you smoking it's a Supra not a Porsche 911 Turbo or a Lambo.

Iv’e read that 145 a bunch of times and probably most likely true.
If my speedo was correct the few times i went crazy on a flat straight highway redlined in 5th the speedometer would read 149mph....just a tiny bit below the 150 mark.
It was more a luxury cruiser than a all out sports car.
I liked the heavy weighted feel of the car.
