sell it and i buy another supra or even to or even a daily driver and your weekend supra........
if you sell it and then get a better one with the money and still have some cash left over your friendship will most likely be damaged. i wouldnt sell my shit (overpriced) to my friend. but thats really your choice in the end
a 90 with a swapped 7m and a few other things (idr exactly so i wont bullshit) just went for 10k in my town so he thinks hes getting a deal. i guess if he gets the cash ill let it go. :wtc:
Have a gander at our Supras for Sale section and see what you can buy. There are quite a few MKIII's with really good mods on them going for a good price. And you'd still have roughly $3000 left over.
Hey, he needs to do his homework before buying anything. Let him buy it. :evildeal:

haha, ive been browsing the supra for sale section for a bit. lol. i think if i bought another supe id take the exhaust off this one, keep the ddp, and buy an 88 targa 5 speed with a 7mgte bored .30 over and port and polished heads. a local mechanic wants 2k for it. then start building it and get a 240 for a dd or something.
old pic of when it was dirty. ill try to get more soon. my cam is broken.

Every supra owner needs a reliable DD look I have 3 of them!

That's too bad for them, if they'd sell their Supra that easily. What's the point of putting so much time, effort, and money into something, only to sell it to someone who might destroy it?

Thing is ray, he hasnt put so much time and effort into it...yet. He could buy another supra, maybe even one in better shape, buy a new intake & exhaust, spend the 2 hours it takes to put them on, and be right back to square one, except with 3-4k extra in his pocket! I'd agree with you if he had dumped thousands of dollars and hours into it, but he hasnt. Having a car like this is like being with a girl. at first the relationship is fueled by lust. then over time lust is replaced by love, or you break up. In his case, hes still in the lust stage, theres plenty other fish in the sea (craigslist), and the incentives of breaking up are high ($7500)!
Owned mine for 12 years and have put more blood sweat tears and $$$ into it than 99% of Mk3 owners and would sell it in a heartbeat if someone offered what I considered to be a reasonable price for it.
It's just a car anyone that thinks otherwise is deluded, 1 serious accident and it's gone and you end up recovering pennies on the dollar.
I speak from experience.

Sell it. don't even think about it.
I was fortunate to recover my money out of my supra, Do it while you are still ahead.

You couldn't drift a FF car while sober, lol. Only powerslide, and to the unexperienced eyes you could try and call it a drift.
On another note, I wouldn't buy a DD like a 240 either. Personally when I pick a DD car, I try to pick a vehicle that I would have no interest in putting money into. Thats how I keep my DD's seperate from my play toys.
IE: I own an old Dodge Dakota (1991) and keep it running by just doing all the general maintenance on it. Body is full of rust but the old gal has never left me stranded, and I can also haul all my tuning goodies for my supras if ever needed, without having to ask friends.
Also. If supras are going for that much in your area, I want to trialer two of mine there and sell em, and finish my projects on the two shells I have, :GRIN:
But yes, deffinantly sell it. No doubts, no second guesses.
