Something fun happen at work!!

Well this is more like a parking lot encounter, but heres the story. I'm a security officer and work third shift on the weekends. So Its Sunday night around 11pm and I'm the only one here. I've got a little gaurd shack out in the middle of the parking lot with all of my cameras and a good view of everything. I noticed a car coming into the parking lot on the far rightside. As the car gets closer all I can see is bright a$$ headlights and all I can hear is a deep loud exhaust and a loud BOV. I'm like What do we have here. It was a 93-98 style Supra. As it got closer I could see the front mount intercooler. The driver parked it sideways taking up 3 parking spaces, shuts it down, and gets out. I go out into the parknig lot to get a better look at the Supra. The guy was cool as hell. The first thing out of my mouth was nice Supra, and he asked me if I ws into imports. I said yes I was and pointed to my EP that was not to far away. He started tell me about his Supra. Upgraded turbos, front mount intercooler, exhaust, down pipe, boost controller, gauges, and a whole lot more he didn't talk a whole lot about. He was telling me that its pushing 603 hp to the wheels!! I was like sweet. He said he even had the Dyno in his glove box to prove it. Well then he had to go into his office to file some paper work. While he was in there I walked around his Supra a few time looking at it. I swear, it has the biggest upgraded front and rear disc braked I've ever seen. The exterior was bone stock. I didn't get to much of a chance to see inside due to the deep tinted windows. And after I finished checking my round later he was already gone. So I didn't get a chance to see under the hood. But I'll be watching for him again and hopefully get to see everything next time. Just thought I'd share my highlight for the evening.

I'd hit it. Supras are so damn sexy. My friend who is 16 just got a 98 Supra TT. That thing is stock but it's still a badass car. I got to drive it back to his house when we picked it up. I'm so jealous of this guy.

Cool story, supras are sic. Ive seen this Supra sitting on jack stands outside a shop. I dont know what they doing with it though. I always see black and green ones around here. Hopefully I see a blue one or something.

That's not too responsible on his parents' part.
