RedM Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Why not get something like an Exige instead, it's harder to lose your license with cos it's all about handling and acceleration rather than 180mph on the motorway!!!! Spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 Exactly the same mate http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showpost.php?p=1496785&postcount=84 Just make damn sure before you jump dude, go drive some other cars and see if they're better. Life begins once that wastegate opens Great minds an all that I know exactly how you are feeling and tbh i dont regret selling mine one bit, for me i went to far with the car, modding became an obsession, when i do another im just going to go stock body,light wheels,big brakes/ Chris Wilson suspension and a phr street or stage one kit. No bling or body kits, just spotless. TBH I'm pleased to hear you say that, if you'd said "I totally regret it" then I'd be worried Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! ... that is all I know I'm nuts, I wonder if it's a case of the grass is always greener on the other side. I'm not going to make any rash decisions, there's too much at stake. I do feel relieved I'm not the only one though. I know it probably sounds like a little piddly problem to some, just sell the damn thing I hear you say, but I've sunk everything into this car, & letting go is proving a very hard decision. I think if the car had been standard it would have been an easy choice, but I am part of the car now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl_S Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 I bet you like works in progress. Now you have achieved perfection, its not a nice place to be. You need something else to strive/battle for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I'm not thinking of something as fast as that, 348's are really growing on me, Vettes have always been a favourite, think I'm ready just to cruise around on the roads now, my days of tearing up the streets are numbered. I'll prolly use these book-a-track days where you can hire caterhams etc to get my kicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Just sell it, the time comes to move on, it sounds like your time is now... there will always be other Supras anyway, it's not as if they are rare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruggs Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 cannot quite work out if you are keeping the supe or the porker, hope its the supe, there are not that good ones around now, they seem to be going abroad all the time:( I cant decide either..thats the problem. About 5 months ago i was adamant it was going no matter what and now its looking more likely that the porker will go. Love both cars but cant justify keeping both. Maybe i'll toss a coin for it, or rock,paper, scissors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooter Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 have any of you more 'cash rich' chaps ever looked into one of those car club things.........where you pay an annual fee and get credits to use to so you can drive various cars for various lengths of time throughout the year?

Jazzy Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Keep it, just use it more. I may of only had mine a month or so, but I use it as my daily driver to and from work. It's light on the clutch, is happy to pootle around at sedate speeds and is lovely and quiet. However, when I want, it turns into an animal. It really is the best of both worlds, a comfy cruiser and a rip snorting monster. I love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraGirlie Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 really have a yearning for a convertible too Then selling my day to day car which is an auto (great for going to work) & getting a black NA automatic Supra Sounds like you need a black N/A auto aero, there is a nice one in the classifieds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylestt Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Jay if you sell your Supra, i'm afraid we can no longer talk. Seriously dont do it. I have sold 2 of my Supras in 2 years and kick myself every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Don't do it mate. I've lost a Supra before and after many an hour searching for a better match I went and bought another. You'll regret it. It's a modern classic IMO and yours is one of the nicest out there right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colsoop Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Get your bum in the seat of another marque. go a different route like some other have said, something with less speed in a straight line but handling on rails, if it doesn't float your boat you can always get another Supra, its not like they are in short supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jevansio Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 The decision is made, it's going, Jurgen is handling the sale, time to move on . Like every ex-supra owner I'll still be on here though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylestt Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Lol sorry mate, but if I get a Vette we can still be friends, yes? I suppose but ONLY if you twin turbo it. My buddy is doing that with his z06 as we speak. Now i have to get a bigger turbo to keep up. Its an endless game we play here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
