Default New Supra

Well the search was long and tedious, just like all my vehicle searches. I decided to purchase this Supra, 2 months before I return home- It’s a 1995 TT- all stock except for an intake and wheels- 100,000 miles- its interior is immaculate and the exterior is amazing- It’s a very well kept vehicle- I’m pleased with the find and look forward to putting in some major wrench time once back in the states- I am the 3rd owner, the first was a teacher of some sort in texas and the last owner was a librarian in wisconsin- it has all paperwork and even the original window sticker- It feels good to own another Supra- and dont worry- I'm keeping the SC300-







Dont worry, wheels are first to go- for some CCW Classic's in Gunmetal

Nice Supra, I remember the first Supra I ever saw was white and I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it, I knew it was something special.

I know exactly how you feel. Yeah the power would be nice, but modding a stock Supra (so rare these days) seems like blasphemy. If it were trashed it would be a no brainer.

BTW, that hard pipe replacing the top radiator hose isn't stock either. I'm surprised the stock radiator is still in good shape. Most of them crack the upper tank by now. Mine sure did...and be sure to check the stock BOV - they use a rubber disc in them that cracks and makes it leak like a sieve when they get about this old.

When I saw "New Supra" I thought it was the 2011 one.
