1997 Toyota Supra Turbo - Red Light Special
Reincarnation Of The Candy Apple Demon
When the constant sounds of turbo spooling and monotonous exhaust humming takes a toll on the psyche, the need for a killer audio system is just what the doctor prescribes. La personally installed a complete audio makeover in his Supra, starting with an Alpine CVA-1005 flip screen monitor. PPI Power class 2400 and 2300 chrome amplifiers, Eclipse coaxial speakers, Eclipse crossovers and Boston Acoustic mids and highs. Eclipse aluminum 12-in subwoofer sealed in a custom trunk enclosure provides the deep roar. During those arduous drives to car shows and weekend rendezvous, La relies on an Alpine 12-disc changer and Sony Playstation 2 to keep him and his passengers entertained throughout the trip. Recently, La implemented two 5-in Audiobahn monitors in the trunk as icing on the cake, thus completing his ICE package.
Mike wont lie. He confesses his car is a complete chick magnet and often uses the Supra to pick up dates. La confesses, never on the first date. "I try to pimp it in my daily driver Honda Odyssey when I meet someone new. My motto is if you can't love me for my Odyssey, then you can't love me at all!" Two years in the making and over $80,000 dollars of hard earned cash invested into the Supra, most people would be hesitant to drive such a treasure on the road, but La refuses to call his Supra a trailer queen. "I feel that a car should be driven, and rest assured, my Supra sees the streets of southern California and not the trailer in back of my Odyssey. I've got the State Referee tickets to show for it!"
