The other day, I was reminded of a car I hadn’t thought of in a while, the Bitter SC. That isn’t the car now stuck in my head, though, the pictured A60 Supra is.

The Bitter SC is an interesting car, but pretty rare.

However, the similarities are striking, and the differences favor the Supra.

The front bumper and pop-up headlight aspects are similar, almost too much to be coincidental. the belt line with the heavy rub strips, and the simple, clean form and angular, sleek lines. Even the inline-6, rear-drive layout is similar.

The Supra is a fastback hatch, which I prefer, and more readily found and supported.

So now, I have A60 Supra on my mind... and this isn’t the first time. I wish I had the money for a nice one, or to make one nice.

I love the MKII Supra. I’ve been meaning to buy one since I was in high school, but haven’t found the right one at the right time yet.

I like the MKII Supra as well, always one of the few Japanese cars I like, but I would much rather have that Bitter. I think the Bitter is just a really cool design and I think the idea behind it, having a custom made body with proven mechanicals, is really unique. I just wish it got a proper V8, a car that unique and in a class of its own really needed something other than an Inline 6. Still, would like to see one at some point.

Ah Yes, the Bitter CD. I am well aware of its existence, and I do like it a lot. Just a shame it came out right as the oil crisis got really bad.

Much like 90% of all cars made in the 70s then.
