Unique vehicles native to the Japanese Domestic Market are sought after by tuners and adored by petrolheads alike. One of the more recent additions to the list is that of the A90 Toyota Supra Mk5.
While many discredit Toyota’s striking coupé as being a BMW Z4 in drag, tuners have continued in their quest in making some of the most extravagant and outlandish kits for the Supra Mk5. Zacoe is one of the latest with their rendition that bears striking similarity to a shark.
Zacoe may not have years of experience behind their name like other revered tuners in the game but they still have a strong portfolio, producing interesting body kits for a spectrum of high-end vehicles such as the BMW M3 and M4, the McLaren 720s and Lamborghini Huracan. Zacoe seems to have taken a literal interpretation to the shark motif after their announcement of the body kit included the phrase Land shark alert! Its ominous green and grey colour scheme is also a bit of a dead giveaway while the diagonal vents on the bonnet allude to the gills prevalent on each side of the deep sea predator.
The rest of the cosmetic upgrades for the Supra Mk5 include plenty of carbon-fibre placed all around the car with a new hood, front and rear fenders, side skirts, rear diffuser while a front lip and massive rear wing round off the extremities of the car.
No information on any suspension or mechanical upgrades have been provided but the kit does create an overall menacing stance and aesthetic to the already cult favourite Supra Mk5. Zacoe have been tight-lipped on pricing too but this option would probably be in the same ballpark as offerings from Pandem and Rocket bunny, in other words it would take a big bite out of your bank account at a cost of around $8 000 (R120 000).
