599 GTO

http://www.ferrari.com/english/gt_sport%20cars/classiche/all_models/599-gto/Pages/599_GTO.aspx Ferrari's new extreme V12 berlinetta, the 599 GTO, delivers a lap time of just 1 minute and 24 seconds at Fiorano, making it the fastest road-going model in our history. This limited edition special series of just 599 is the new pinnacle of Prancing Horse sportiness and has benefited to an enormous degree from technological transfers from the track. Many of the cutting-edge solutions sported by the 599 GTO are also the product of the Maranello engineers' experience in the development of the 599XX, the prototype experimental car of which, as its legendary moniker suggests, the 599 GTO is the road-homologated version. <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
The Toyota Supra is a sports car / grand tourer that was produced by Toyota Motor Corporation from 1978 to 2002. The styling of the Toyota Supra was derived from the Toyota Celica , but it was both longer and wider. [ 4 ] Starting in mid-1986, the Supra (in its third generation, Mark III) became its own model and was no longer based on the Celica. In turn, Toyota also stopped using the prefix Celica and began just calling the car Supra . [ 5 ] Owing to the similarity and past of the Celica's name, it is frequently mistaken for the Supra, and vice versa. First, second and third generation Supras were assembled at Tahara plant in Tahara, Aichi while the MKIV Supra was assembled at the Motomachi plant in Toyota City. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Supra

Stance|Works has been built on the mentality that if a car has an attractive "stance" then it's something that any enthusiast can appreciate, no matter the make, model or decade in which it was built. The reality is, stance is far from anything new. Over the various generations of car builders, since the beginning of the Model T, the overall appeal of the vehicle inevitably correlates with how it's wheels sit in relation to their fenders and how far the body is distanced from the road. As cars have evolved, so has the need for "styling" to differentiate a make and model from it's competition. Naturally, the stance of a vehicle is a strong variable in the pursuit of an aesthetically pleasing design and it's something we want to take a better account of.
