possibly first car

pure · 07-11-2009, 02:41 AM

just joined the forums have been doing some research and lots of good information here. Alright well i have always loved supra's and i am finally in the market for one came across one close to were i live a 1988 supra turbo 5 speed manual, targa. After stopping to take a look there is no rust, has a set of after market rims with new tires, but the car looks like it has been painted but all and all in good shape what are some of the things that i should be looking at.

And what is the gas milage like and hows it handle in the winter? this is my first car and i am aware of the fact insurance wont be cheap

My dad had owned a mk2 supra so he knows abit about them but not a whole lot about mk3

According to Toyota, The mk3 Supras get 21 mpg highway, but that seems kinda low to me.

I don't split up the mileage from city to highway. I get approx. 16-17 on average.
