Guest TheOsakaRun Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Hi all, new here. I will be buying a supra in the next month or so, I've had jap imports for over 15 years (skyline,fto,gt4,mr2 turbo,200sx etc). Got only 3k to spend, will it be worth buying one at the cheaper end of the market? Obviously it will be a n/a model, don't mind an auto but worried about the fuel consumption ! What mpg can I expect (urban)? Great site & info...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 TBH if you've only got 3k then you shouldn't think about buying a Supra, even an NA. Apart from the purchase price, you'll need insurance and, most likely, a full service too. If your worried about the cost of fuel then it's a definite no-no. These cars, as a whole, may be cheap now but everything else about them is still 'supercar' money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiceRocket Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 These cars, as a whole, may be cheap now but everything else about them is still 'supercar' money. The car's prices come down but the parts/labour stay near the stratosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
