Supra sitting at Car shop, what should I do??

Idk, I cant pop the hood open or anything. The thing that sucks is that Im only 17, I want this car so bad.

So I called the guy, he wouldnt tell me a lot. He said it has 60,000 miles, its a Twin Turbo, Supra Targatop. For $20,000. He didnt tell me what year, he said come by and we can negotiate. This sucks, why can I be 2 years older and I could get it. SH*T!

60K? Just in time for a new timing belt. You better start saving your pennies, you'll probably be 30 before you can afford a TT MK4.......

Maybe this is a dumb question, but why do you have to wait until you're 19? Just give him the $18k-$20k or whatever, and then drive away...

Cus Im 17 i have no money. Im gonna see if my dad can cosign a loan for me when Im 18, but Idk If I can offer him 17K, then I get a personal loan for 72 months thats with $1000 down, its still probally gonna be like 18500 with tax, and APR, so thats $257/month, + Insurance $250/month so $507/month. Idk thats a lot of money. Depends if I can get a better job

Agreed a lot of money, but it's a lot of car too.

Just make sure that happens, right?

I'm 45 and it's still alot of money.
however, assuming the car is worthy it's a hell of a bargain .

you do have to ask yourself .. why is it sitting there and only 1 person has the vision to see this diamond in the rough ?

IHateHacks · 08-14-2007, 08:12 PM

ANY car could be a diamond in the rough. It all depends on how much passion you have for the car.

My supra had one wheel in the junkyard when I bought it 2 years ago and now look at it. But I have over 7K in mine right now not including the purchase price so, ok it depends on your passion and how big your wallet is.
