SupraStar 3000 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I normally see any example of the Supra through rose tinted spectacles, but in the last few days I've seen a couple of really shabby cars. Its really depressing to see this fine car mistreated and neglected. Today I walked passed a complete wreak of a Supra with mismatching bodykit parts and wheels that looked like they were used on the Paris to Dakar rally. Just glad its not to long before Japfest when we can see some fortunate cars that do receive the love and attention they deserve. look after your cars guys.

SupraStar 3000 Posted March 29, 2005 Author Share Posted March 29, 2005 what are JDMs mate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Usually JDMs I bet. Japanese domestic market. What makes you think that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Because usually the shitty looking examples are JDM's. Not because they're from the Japanese market, but because of the JDM owners tastes, and the shit thats stuck on them during the conversion. I've also seen some amazing JDM cars, so it works both ways of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerotop Dave Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 It's something I have pondered - do I have an 'obligation' to keep my relatively rare Aerotop in original or near-to original condition? I'm gonna have to wait about 15-20 years for it to reach full blown 'classic' status though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homer Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I've seen many Supes in the last year, a few have been really poor examples, a few recent ones: There's a local UK car that looks likes it just been dragged out of a scrap yard. Silver L reg with dents all over it (not small ones either). The interior looks like shite and has so much dust it looked like its been sprayed grey inside! Just last week I noticed a Jap L reg black car turn up locally that looks even worse. The (Veilside) body kit is smashed in every area, the lights are as yellow as yellow can get and pretty much all panels have dings in them. I went to take a pic of the car with my camera phone but the (apparent) owner came out of the house and threw a beer can at me!!! Needles to say I didn't bother mentioning mkivsuprs.net!! There's certainly some really dodgy cars out there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
