Sorry to dissapoint you but the answer is "NO"...my opinion.

I've bought mine for $4,000 and at 160,000 miles with a new head gasket replacement on it too. Plus it's an 89 Turbo.

Now mine is having some engine problems. I suggest you can do better than that and find a better one with a better deal.

alright ill wait some more then... it has 120k miles on it interior looks perfect... the body dosent have any rust though paint is starting to bubble on the rear fender and the modeling is faded.. its hard since i never see any supras in my area im in upstate new york.. so i would only use it for the summer anyways since it is a rear wheel drive car.

How about this:

I just bought a 91' supra, 97k miles, runs great, (just gotta replace the head gasket), the interior is leather, for 900 bucks. The guy who sold it to me was the first owner. The car in general is in supra conditon.(ha, ha) Did I just about steal the car?

(I had never heard of a supra and I don't know much about them, I was just shopping for my first car and my dad found me this one)

depends on the part needed

can a used part be used ?

does it have to be OEM ?

toyota parts direct from toyota are not cheap

this place is cheaper than my local toyota dealer
