I was on my way home from target, taking a weird round about in the middle of the road. It was dark and construction of course. I have a truck pass me and then I see some white ass lights coming at me, also turning into my road direction. I didnt even know what it was until I saw a huge fucking wing. I laughed and told my gf to hold on so I can see it at the light. Sure enough it said 3000gt, and I do believe it was all stock on exterior. The wing looked like a boxy supra wing. Theres a thread somewhere with a pic of it, but I thought it looked good to be honest. There was of course some idiots next to use in a 2500 dogde pickup reving their engine and taunting the owner. So they let off at the light and I follow up on the 3000gt ass, but find myself falling way behind FAST lol. The truck of idiots obviously just got a chuckle. I only went up until I hit speed limit, because Im not a street racer or out looking for tickets. I was actually hoping he/she would go into walmart area. I would have asked them to join our community.

Anyway I just thought it was a neat looking car in person

well, they never made a single side exhaust on the 3/s's that i'm awair of
even my base has quad tips

so you may have just been mistaken
could be SL or just a VR4 not moving at top speed
