Re: i see why they never imported this supra

The top one a Solara, not a Supra. IIRC, Supras stopped in 94.

On the second one, just because its a Supra doesnt mean its a twin turbo. There are NT ones that go for pretty cheap. Theres also a thing called scam artists.

I'm pretty sure supras went to 98, but I could be wrong. They definately went longer than 94 though.

i know its not a real supra but u would think a car lot would know better or atleast check and make sure that autotrader gets their photos right

and as for the 5k supra i have never in my life seen one even a na for that cheap maybe if the moter and the tranny are gone
theres an na auto supra at a lot here in town 20k (far too much)
but i have seen them as low as about 13k
but if i had known i could of gotten this supra for 5k i would of gotten a plane ticket and bought that over my eclipse

Re: i see why they never imported this supra

The supra stopped production in the USA in 1998, but the supra was made until 2002

Also rumors are the car is comming back in 2007

Very nice looking!!!!! http://www.toyota-supra.info/

Re: i see why they never imported this supra

Eh, I dunno if I like the way it looks to much. It looks okay but I dont think I would pay the shit ton of money they are going to come out for.

Re: i see why they never imported this supra

Yea looks to much like everything else that is new..g35, 350z, new saturn roadster etc. And like basically stated above, no turbo, no fun. Isn't what the supra used to be, kind of like the whole eclipse 3g and 4g.

Re: i see why they never imported this supra

Ugly, but thats what always happens when a car is re-introduced. Looks nothing like the old one, and just sucks. I wish auto manufacturers would reintroduce cars exactly the way they were back in the day. But only sell them for a limited time or something. Would be cool probly.
