Is this MKIV worth to buy? Got carfax report
 
I have been looking at buying this car with overpressure in the cooling system.
Here is the car fax report: http://www.carfax.se/show-report/f06...5ea496e4bf83ba

I know the car is worth nothing in the US but it is in sweden where I live.

It's a LHD TT Targa 6 speed 1998 with 60k or 100k miles on it.

He is asking 145 000 swedish kronor which is 20k dollars

Thanks
Best Regards Fredrik Sweden

1) I'm 100% certain that this car would not be "worth nothing in the US". It's an Mkiv Supra Turbo - a very rare, imported high performance GT sportscar. The same way a Porsche or Ferrari with a mechanical issue would not be "worth nothing", neither would this vehicle. :)

2) With 82k miles (12k ~'BPU'), $20k USD seems quite high, given the mechanical issue. Until I know more (eg. compression/leakdown numbers for each cylinder, etc.), there's no way I can estimate how expensive the problem will be to fix.

3) The scoop on the hood was a factory-availble option in EU.

4) The 6spd conversion is very pricey. Are you sure you want to do this?

5) Can you translate the web page at the link you posted?
