Re: Civic or Eclipse

Supras are really costly. Try and find an AWD turbo Eclipse/Talon.

I only paid $5700 for my 96 Talon. It has 62,000 original miles, leather, etc.
Look around, you'll find something.

turbo supra for only 8 grand? sorry if im mistaken but that sounds pretty cheap for only body work to be done...but then agan i am drunk at the moment,,,

but seirosly without the alcohol in my system, i think i'd just stay with the turbo eclipse/talon just because of the lower costs and with that extra money you'd spend on the eclipse you could spend on performance mods that could make you better than the supra tt

thats my drunk opeinion for you

if ur interested in peformance do not get the supra... they are way over priced for wut they can do, not sayin theyre bad cars just way to expensive... id go with the turbo awd ecplise drop a few grand and blow the doors off a tt supra.

Re: Civic or Eclipse

Yeah, the Supras are way overpriced right now, the 300ZX TT is a much better buy.

Re: Civic or Eclipse

Stay with the 4G63, it's a very good engine...you might wanna upgrade the tranny if it's an all-wheel-drive model, though, because that tranny is known to have problems handling a lot of power.
