For Sale, my beloved Supra that i have loved owning/modifying for over eight years now. I hate having to sell her, especially having finally achieved my perfect Supra, but i have to clear my mounting debts.

 

I bought the car in a reasonably modified state from a dealer over eight years back, as my second Supra. I paid a small fortune for it back then, and have then spent countless thousands further tuning it and upgrading the brakes, suspension, electronics, bodykit etc over these years. When i purchased the car it had a few running problems, but was still very quick, and the low mileage and exceptional condition was the selling point. I also checked it carefully to ensure it has never been accident damaged and as far as i'm aware it is all original factory paint.

 

Most of the work since has been completed by myself as a Specialist technician, and Supra enthusiast. I have spent many years working on/tuning and building big Supra's and i still believe this to be one of the best all round driving cars. This has exceptional handling and grip, emmense power and great braking ability. Plus it sounds absolutely crazy as you'd expect. Friends have always compared being a passenger in it, to riding an extreme rollercoaster, scary as hell but puts a huge grin on your face.

 

Due to work commitments and me constantly wanting to perfect the car, i have only covered approximately 10,000 miles in all my years of ownership, but loved every minute of the driving experience, and would like to see her go to a good new home.

Absolute bargain, great buy for someone.

 

Indeed, a lot of car for the money. Do you have a dyno plot to post up to back up the HP claims?

 

I reckon most people would take it with a pinch of salt anyway, different dynos different results. Thor are known to ever so slightly exagerate for example. I think JP lost 100hp on his V8 by taking it elsewhere.

it might have been an auto thats maybe why the lower price ?

 

i guess a pic of the vin would verify for sure..

 

As its not an auto at the present moment would it be treated differently to a manual (from a price perspective)?

yes with overseas people it does am afraid as when they come to register the car its an auto and its had a change from original..

 

it sucks but its the overseas buyers that pay the best money..

 

this might be a genuine 6 speed too.
