Default Supra for Madmax

Saw this on Craigslist.net. $19 what I don't know anything about it. Just saw an ad.

282 -- Toyta Supra Twin Turbo - $19 (SF)
From: anon-1902254@craigslist.org
Tue Oct 9th


1994 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo. Excellent condition. Black ext. Tan Leather. Seats replaced last year and are in great shape. 69k miles. 60k service performed (timing belt, etc). Replaced speakers with high-end eclipse. Paint in excellent condition. Very fast car, like the one in 'Fast and furious' although not quite so fast. And mine is better looking. I really didn't care for that orange color

So many people responded to it since 2 days ago, he had to mass mail a ton of people, hehe... But, the car is an automatic, and I prefer a manual.

Sorry!

Maybe, the next one will be the one.

How's the SC doing? I am thinking of picking one up in the next couple of months. We probably will sell our GS cause we need some $$ for a house.

How much did you pay for yours and did you have a tough time finding one?

If the price started with a 2, maybe... I just can't justify paying well over 30 grand for a car like that :|
It is a buyer's market right now though...

It does have low mileage and is pretty rare. If it's as good as he says it might be worth looking at.

Besides, don't you want to be stomping the competition?

It's a very nice car indeed..

But I am not buying into the plan of modifying an existing sc drivetrain because of the smog situation. Besides, didn't you ever watch the supra videos? I don't think there is any comparison between the two. Didn't you see the supra blow by both the sc and the truck?

I think if you drop in a supra drivetrain with the smog and electronics you should be legal. Be pretty trick too. Of course, you'll need more then just engine work to match a stock supa.

Are you prepared for Lexus moneypit?
