14K for an Auto, Non Turbo :crazy:

20K on tard-me gets you mildly modded turbo examples, less than 10K buys you Auto non turbo (sure higher K's)

That said, If it floats his boat, then hey, I really hope that he enjoys, as they are a future classic, they aren't any where near as ugly as the mark III Supra's

JZA90 Supra Tell him to save the rest of his money for parts and service :crazy: They are awesome at flogging out the top and bottom arms, front and rear. As a bonus though the engine and auto will be hard to kill, maybe not some of the stuff bolted to it.

Nice enough car pity about the weight of them and sheer size of the car for so little inside.*
Supra owners are a weird bunch, much like the type of people that belong in them Leyland or Morris clubs.




*I'd rather VD then own one.

1958 Ferrari 250 Testarossa crashes at Laguna Seca during the Monterey Historic Automobile Races.
God, I'd love to go to that one day! Super rich owners of the god-cars of historic racing, actually driving them like they were meant to be driven!!! Side by side and flat out.

Great video here. Francois Delecour playing around in a 911 GT3 RS. He is definitely one of the cool guys from the WRC. Worth watching to the end. http://tinyurl.com/Delecour-GT3RS

I would be more inclined to go down the other path, find a crashed ferrari 360/355 and then put it into a shitty french car. ;) ooolaaaalaaaaaaaaaa


that was awesome

Cosworth sierra $33k?

I'd have thought that was pretty good buying. Cant see it ever being worth less than that in unmolested condition.

I'd rather have the M6 that he also has for sale, even though it's LHD.
