Pop up headlights called de Shark nose :)

The new ones (The black one is on AL asking 3.7 Mil) fantastic cars - true usable super cars ...IMHO.

There is at least two others that are known of... the Spraymech people own a highly original 14 Sri car that is brownish silver. Then there's a Silver 300- example which is supposed to be a Turbo that is often seen around Wellawatta/Bambalapitiya. Identified by a cracked windscreen.

And I recall some time back an Ad on TV for some kind of Tipi Tip ripoff also had a Mk3 Supra. Might well be the last car mentioned

Wait I should remember the one in Wella then- was it the car parked outside Curry leaves frequently? The Spraymech car must be a late 80's mk3 cause I thought that was a mk2, as its very different to the black car

I think the black car is from one of the final years of production and the Kit is probably non original as well. The Spraymech car was apparently a Brand New import through the Toyota agents of the time (Freudenberg if I recall right.) Based on what I've heard (unconfirmed mind you) it was not the only one they brought in. 14 Sri would put it at about '86-'88.
