well i just got back from test driving a supra turbo, and i wanted everyones
opinion on if i should get it or not.
the body is strate but the clear cote is coming off .
it has 121k miles on it. the turbo seams to be good.
there is an oil leak on the front trubo side of the ingen (not the turbo).
the seats are trash they need to be reapolsterd.
the trany seams to be just a lil loose but ok.
he wants $1500 for it

what do you think?

edit: yes i know my spelling is bad im sorry

*c-town* · 12-28-2005, 04:22 AM

if u want it given him a lower offer say $1000 but only if its worth it

duster117 · 12-28-2005, 03:51 PM

one more thing i forgot to say

i got on the boost 3 times when i drove it
the first 2 times it stalled but the 3rd it did not
the car has ben sitting for a long time! and it still started right up
witch is good

and about offering 1000 i dont think hell drop that far i might say 1300 maby

btw he says he thinks the oil leak is coming from where the distrebuter
goes in the motor. he said something about an o-ring. dues any one know what
he means

it seems like it may be a good deal? 5-sd or auto tranny???
oil leak is minimal, just replace the oring w/ a toyota dealer oring, not a aftermarket oring. It could be laking through the shaft also, but hard to say without piks.. have it checked for a head gasket leak also.. its a common problem unfortinately..
