zap Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I saw a white one in Maidstone 3 days after they were first released, and I was hooked, problem was I could not find £43000, so had to wait till they became more affordable lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithaldo Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I had been thinking about getting a car I could do something with as I'm not allowed to change the Motability car in any way. Was on my way back from Manchester and was passed by a few Supra's which got my interest up. Then I went to Brands Hatch to watch the first A1 Race and was next to a gorgeous black one. When I got back I had a look on the net and as soon as I saw this... I knew I wanted it. The shape, the colour, everything was right.

Suprash Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 i was pissed 5 years ago and went out for a test drive in a supra , i didnt drive it , my brother did ... made me throw up in the back seat ... the garage was not very happy with it, but i told them ill buy the car they were ok about it . the strange thing was i was not after another car , my brother was, but he could not get the money together , i paid by visa card .......went to the pub later and forgot about it until 2 days later my brother asked me when iam going to pick up the car ???. i replied what car ? then i remembered ...bummer ... you should have seen the wife's face when i arrived in the car the next day , well it was my birthday .......i havent regreated it yet ....strange i did the same thing with my TVR aswell ..... lesson to learn , dont go and look at a car when iam drunk ??and brother is driving !!! Can I come out drinking with you please........... And to all the people who put their Supe on their credit card, huff, how much money have you got, its not a pack of beers you know. Wanting the car of your dreams - £15,000, paying the interest on it - £2000, the wife finding out what you spend on your drunk impulse buys - 1 divorce, for everything else theres MasterCard Well me, I had remortgaged and had 30k burning holes in my pocket. I was supposed to go and put all that down on a house, but ended up spending 2/3's of it on the Supra and putting 10k on the deposite I was intially looking at the GT3000's as I didnt like the Supras headlights, then browsing Ebay and spotted mine, fell in love with it, emailed the bloke and said if I bought would only do it privatly, so went up to Leeds to see the car, he took me out and as soon as we hit 130mph I had to have, didnt even test drive it then but left a deposite and returned a few weeks later Picked her up in the morning from Leeds, drove her for the first time around 09:00 in the morning, then me and the chap I bought it from went to the very first 10 of the best and raced her down the strip at 163mph, beating the chap who I just bought it off of by 1mph on the top speed run......he wasnt please but what a day that was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I seem to notice a clear theme here, people fall in love with them and once they've been for a test drive they know they have to have one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris burford Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Well i am one of the ones that can actually admit to falling in love with them after watching fast and furious at the cinema also had a beautifull mark 3 before that so that gave me the bug as well.

Thorin Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Years ago I played the original need for speed it was called road and track and it had a supra in it, me and my mates would say can you imagine owning any of the cars on that game, the game had really good video showcases of all the cars along with the supra. Always wanted a super sports car that made jaws drop wherever it went. What can I say, I'm a materialistic showoff. So a supra purchase was inevitable. Yup Road & Track's original Need For Speed on the Panasonic 3DO games console! Remember watching the video showcase for the Supra on there and thinking it just looked so much cooler than all the other cars on there... I recently rescued my 3DO from the bottom of my old wardrobe at my mum's house and have been playing it again. Remember the annoying "Mr. X" guy you raced against, was so smarmy in those video cut scene's when he beat you... Was great beating him I'm gonna have to try and extract the video showcase from the CD, I've downloaded FreeDO (3DO emulator) and will try and have a play around with that.

raymanuk Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 My Uncle had a MKIII turbo and I fell in love with it. Years later I went back to the states and he had gotten rid and showed me a MKIV. I have wanted one ever since but could not afford it, so I forgot all about it and plus I was only 17. In 1999 I saw lovely silver one in Bracknell with 2 huge bins coming out the back end, deap disk alloys and the veilside c2 body kit. Looked and sounded great and reminded me so I started searching but had no where to park it so I had to wait till I moved house and made sure there was Supra space with the house I miss driving a Supra.....

As for battling the 911, pffft I could beat Mr X in anything with the Supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
