I bought my first 87 Turbo when I was 15 for 597.50:naughty:(with taxes,plates,ect...), but then I parted out that one(too many problems:() and bought the same year, color Supra last year when I was 17 for $1200 which I have now and could not have asked for a better car.

20.

Same old story. Wanted one when I was 15 but could only afford beat up NA's. Talked myself out of buying a friends 88 Turbo because of high mileage and some rust.

Bought my first one last summer at age 19. The woman at the DMV stared at me for about 5 seconds and said "Wow. This car has had a lot of owners". This was for a reason. It had a BHG, bad paint, etc etc.

Got my current supra last fall at age 20 and plan to keep it forever.

I was 22. 87 N/A hardtop auto, my second car. I didn't even really want it and wasn't even looking for another car but for $800 and it was a running RWD Toyota... Lots of hard work, parts, and cleaning brought it back to life. It was a respectable DD that slowly converted me into a fan. Sold it to a friend after I aquired and rebuilt my 89 turbo 2 years ago. I sometimes miss that old car, but boost reminds me to focus on what I have.

15, bought it for $300 cause the owner thought it had bhg cause it kept overheating... all it needed was a thermostat fix cause he put 2 gaskets on it (didnt remove the old one...), and put a whole buncha red silicone sealant all over the place (valve covers, thermostat housing, intake, wherever you could separate a part..). Lots of hard work later, she runs and I drive her around daily.

im 16 now and just bought another mk3 a few months ago. WOOO

Bought my JZA70 when I was 18. Paid $9200 for it in amazing shape. Had 108,000 kms on the odo when I bought it and i've put about 35000 on it since jan 07 when I bought it. Still have it and could never imagine selling it.

I bought my first Supra in November of 2004. I still remember the license plate number.

I was 17 and in my senior year of high school. I had a car before I had a cell phone...

20. my third car. I had a 1990 Celica GT-S I got for $900 that was totaled by a crazy old man. got $3600 from insurance, went toward my 97 Eclipse GS which cost $3700. sold that at $4200 to buy the Supra at $3500. So I got a $300 dollar Supra.
