Guest Dgbviper Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Hi there, Thought I would register up on here and say hello. I have wanted a Supra for a very long time; and actually pretty gutted that the JM Imports red aerotop sold in under 24hrs as I was making some enquiries on that one with view to purchase as it ticked a number of boxes/wants I have in a Supra! Being a bit of a dreamer, but in an ideal world the 1A1 is top of the list but as it is so rare it will also command a premium. Looking at TT cars, aerotop would be ace, again facelift with perhaps vvti/triptronic would be great - not interested in the n/a model though. Really has to be red, blue, green, 1A1 of course. Not sure on black, definitely not white or silver. I'm not picky - honest Currently drive a slightly modified Celica GT-Four ST205 in the same toyota 3L2 red: Suffice to say the difference in performance will be vast, they each have their strengths and my Celica is actually a daily driver but setup for trackdays handling wise, etc. The 4wd grip is incredible, in contrast the Supra will be my first RWD which is rather nervewracking to say the least as I'd hate for anything to happen to a car i've been dreaming about for so long! Been having a browse through the classified ads, some nice examples sold recently at very good prices which is promising Probably missed out some stuff, but Hello! Hope to find the right car soon, and see you all at a meet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jord Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Welcome mate. Your GT-Four looks awesome. Sounds like you have a pretty good idea of what you're after, it's worth holding out until you find the one that's perfect for you. Seen a few 1A1 cars come up for sale, but you're right, they're quite rare. Jurgen at JM Imports should be able to help source you something if you drop him a PM.

Guest Dgbviper Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Welcome. NA's can be a lot of fun but turbos are where the adrenaline is. Absolutely, I've always wanted a Supra but I am also looking for a power gain or at least similar levels, not a drop.

Guest Dgbviper Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 TT BPU should more than suffice Yeah a BPU is what I had in mind if the one I buy hasn't already had it done, amongst other bits. Looking forward to a change of car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Welcome mate, lovely looking GT4 and great choice moving with-in the Toyota family. Green is definately uber rare, as well as 1A1, although there is a green on already in Scotland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dgbviper Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 The one! Haha! Cheers buddy! Love my 1A1! Where are you from if you seen me driving!? I'm in North Lanarkshire, but what I meant was I saw you convoy back up on the M6/M74 when you must've picked up the car from JM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooter Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 There is a great (on paper) green GZ on autotrader right now...right on the south coast though. If I was forced to buy unseen any Supra currently advertised it would be this one, looks good value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dgbviper Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Yes I have actually been looking at it, but there is a distinct lack of information and it looked suspiciously cheap? It is incredibly standard and looks great, I need to do more enquiries - Do you know the seller Scooter or just noticed it? I am sorely tempted as it leaves cash spare for servicing, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
