I'm partial to my Evo. No other car, in my opinion, comes close. That isn't to say I hate on other cars, because all of us here are the same; we love whatever car and/or bike it is we drive.

I'm not a big fan of automatic transmission, but I can understand your view concerning how much less hassle it would be in traffic. As for the price, the only thing that matters is that you will go to sleep every night knowing in your heart you got a good deal. No one else has to like it as long as you do.

Supras are not expensive to mod

Supras are overpriced because of their rareness and because production stopped in 98' in the US. Go to japan and I'm all over an 01' supra!

Supras with automatic transmissions have been proven to be faster in the 1/4 and in the track, 6spd is a matter of re-sale value and personal preference. But when it comes down to facts it beats it in a lot of places.

Supras on the highway are dominant, wanna race from a role?

Yes, it does have high miles, yes its 12-15yrs old, but damn..i saw one in Irvine and it was just amazing how the body lines of it flow.

I'm not a fanboy, I'm just throwing out facts. Cars get old, yet when you look at 69' camaros and old school hot rods those things go for tens of hundreds of more dollars than a damn Evo but no one complains because its .....its an old classic rebuilt to perfection..just wait till 2030 when theres a revolution of mitsus, nissans, hondas, and toyotas getting restored to perfection.


Good luck with the buy man, you'll be happy.

Thanks for the kind words guys???? Leaving this Thursday at 3:00 a.m. for the 1300 mile trip. By the way 60k miles on a 13 year old car only equates to 5k miles at year which isn't much! Plus if you look at what they sell for, in 2 years and 25k miles I can sell it for almost what I paid for it. My fricken Evo lost $10k in 1 year .
