I've just put my flame proof coat on but....

Supra's tend to leave me a bit cold, and 19k buys a whole lot of car these days....

I'll stick to my Rover for now, where's my whippet?

Nice looking car, shame not a lot done on engine.

Bit overpriced if you ask me. The bodykit doesn't exactly cost 10k.

Who in their right mind would spend that much on a car that is effectively 20 years old? Ok if it had pedigree but as an ex MKIV owner thats taking the piss.

19k? I'd rather spend it on a deposit for the new Subrau than that

How is it effectively 20 years old? It's not 2013 yet is it?


sorry, 14 years

I love supras, I really genuinely do - so much so that I oggle my neighbours one to an unhealthy extent but despite the quality of work put into a seriously modded car its hard to think of spending that much wedge up front on something that old? I personally believe, but may be proven very wrong, that the car will stay for sale at that price for some time OR it will have a trim to the asking price.

There are just as good versions of the MK4, with kits and some light modding going for considerably less, enough price gap to buy one and then spec up knowing the work as its done. I know when my current project is finished it will have stood me the original asking price in mods alone but my resale price will be the same or even lower than an unmolested version.
