charlton Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 ...to upgrade to a TT I wanted a TT originally but chose against it because it was my first rear wheel drive car, insurance and I fell in love with my Supe. I'd like to hope I'd get 6k for my 95 NA and get a decent manual TT for a max of 9k - am I being ambitious? Mine has got 126k on the clock - imported by Jurgen for his friend in 2005 Link to original advert on Jurgen's site or more pics here It doesn't have the light brows anymore and never had Recaro interior. I cannot fault the Supe and it has been nothing but a pleasure to drive and would be very hard to part with it. I have thought about dropping a TT engine in because I am happy with the styling but it needs more power and 6th gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 6k is maybe a bit too high to expect for your NA mate, but if you get that for it get yourself another grand and buy my TT6! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlton Posted December 9, 2007 Author Share Posted December 9, 2007 get yourself another grand and buy my TT6! Funny you should say that... I was looking at a post of yours earlier and had a look in your garage. Although I couldn't buy a red Supe because a friend of mine has one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Ahh but is it a TT6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I doubt you would get 6k mate, especially around this time of year. I have noticed that people seem to go for the cheap deals where they are almost guaranteed to be of a lower standard. I was debating how much mine was worth and I reckon I'll struggle to get a decent price for it considering it's condition and the fact that it is facelift..... H.

Thats what I was thinking, might have to settle for a TT conversion - may try insurance quotes on a single Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 £4.5k tops, realisticly probably closer to £3.5-£4k. But you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely a facelift would command a slightly higher price than a pre-facelift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IDO Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Alright Lee, Long time no see.. I was toying with selling to get a TT, then thought of all the time and money spent on mine.. and as people say the NA price isn't great to sell on! (i've probably spent more on mod's on mine alone than what i could get back!) My mind has been made up, hopfully when funds are available i an going to get a tt lump dropped in mine.. I know if i go to the right places and don't skimp it will be worth it.. plus i get to keep the work i've previously done and i know exactly where the cars been.. Plus on the mod'ing side it would be a nice project.. "I started with a factory standard NA off the boat from Japan, and i've changed it into this!" Thats my plan anyway..

Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 3.5k for a na sz-r (maybe if it was a poor one) bu kevs old car is pretty mint and i know you will get 6k easy mate. put it up for sale and you will see mate.. cheap and tatty na are 3.5k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nicholas Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 blimey 6k for an n/a with 126k on the clock maybe in dream land. 3.5-4k tops for it IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 blimey 6k for an n/a with 126k on the clock maybe in dream land. 3.5-4k tops for it IMO. I would agree. 6k seems very high to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbonut Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 6K will get you a fairly stock auto TT if you look hard enough but 6K for an N/A??? Have to agree you'll be lucky to get £4 - 4.5K but I'm hoping to drop a TT lump into mine before too long as well, would probably be a better option. Spent a mint on mine getting it looking right and cant bear to part with it either....or could go NA-T Linda x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooquicktostop Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Of course most on here are bias to there car and Supra's in general, thats a given, but these cars are getting no younger and are becoming very hard to find with low miles, when you look at a F reg Toyota MK III now it looks very old and dated and commands no money anymore, this will be the same with the MKIV outside the enthusiasts market sooner rather than later, so 6K for an NA is WAY overpriced in the current climate I feel, christ I just picked up an okay condition TT6 manual for £3750 and with a grand of work it will be a very nice daily driver, I do however think the exceptional singles will continue to demand a high selling price going forward as most of them have had £1000's thrown at them and are as new in some cases:innocent: Waits to get flamed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know if i go to the right places and don't skimp it will be worth it.. plus i get to keep the work i've previously done and i know exactly where the cars been.. I go into hibernation for the winter I wouldn't want to give the Supe away at such a low price - or not at least that cheap, it would of almost halved in price in 2yrs!! I think I will buy the missus something nice for xmas and convince her that I need a turbo 3.5k for a na sz-r (maybe if it was a poor one) bu kevs old car is pretty mint and i know you will get 6k easy mate. put it up for sale and you will see mate.. cheap and tatty na are 3.5k Cheers Jurgen, at least someone has faith I've ironed out most of the 'creases' and more since I've been caring for it so its a little better now blimey 6k for an n/a with 126k on the clock maybe in dream land. 3.5-4k tops for it IMO. that only works out a max of 88,000 miles - thats pretty good for a 12 year old car IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Ads Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 There are people that actually want an NA and not just "make-do", and they are willing to pay for a good condition one. I think you'll get around £6k if your patient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 go n/a-tt if you cant part with your car and you can afford to splash a bit of cash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trig Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Id say you could hold out for 6k, looks mint! if i was to sell mine id want 7k!!! but over the last 3.5 years ive spent 8k on mods so makes it even harder to swallow!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magictorch Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Its a very nice example but at this time of year its a buyers market... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlton Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Cheers for the comments about how nice the Supe is (you do realise it Veilside )- I think I will drop the TT lump in, I couldn't bare to part with it for as low as 4k - I'd rather put 4k into the engine than buy a 8k Supe that is not to my liking. I suppose its our own fault for pricing the Supes so low just to get a quick sell which pulls the value of others down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
