Tom Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Welcome, check out the guides here in the faq to give you an idea of what to look for, if your not too fussed with either n/a or tt first drive both and see what you think, it really depends what your after, the n/a will be a fair bit quicker than the is200 and the tt even more so, so it's dependent on what your happy with and if you plan to leave it pretty standard, I wouldnt necessarily just hold out for a low mileage example, go by the condition and you would be best off buying a car from a member on here. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Massey Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 just wondering how much your lexus is worth? coz you say you need to release some funds and then you can buy a supra and still have some change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Yeah, how old is the Lexus. After driving an IS200 I am not sure that the NA will feel a whole lot quicker Tbh. I have an NA and ?I love it, I think a TT would get me into too much trouble and would also worry the crap out of me with the repair costs if anything goes wrong. On the other hand, there are a lot of members on here that will swear by the TT. The performance is amazing. It all depends on waht you want from a car. I wanted a bit of power, reliability and to look fantastic!! Which mine does... If power is a big issue.......go TT. H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_si Posted April 17, 2007 Author Share Posted April 17, 2007 i can sell my car privately for 7500 easy, i want to spend 5500 on a supra and then get the missus a lil run around, house is all sorted really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 For 5.5k you should be able to get a very good example of an N/A but would be struggling to get a tidy TT. Ive got an N/A and love it. Like Havard said its pretty quick, reliable and looks great. You can always do a turbo conversion or sell up and get a TT if you want more power. Im currently considering a NA-T conversion (for the future) as Ive almost got the supe looking how I really want it to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
