Default Would you consider this Supra as a good buy?

its a white 1987 Targa top N/A Supra 125,000 no dents, paint is excellant conditon. New tires.The interior is perfect, no rips anywhere on the seats. The engine starts right up no smoke, no visable leaks on the engine or under the car, This car also just got a $2000 transmmission put in, This guy is asking for $750.00 I think its a deal, but is it?

How much longer will this engine last, assuming its been mainted well, is the only thing the headgasket?

How do I ensure this engine lasts as long as my 22RE-C

Any Mk3 is worth more than that, unless it is thoroughly fucked over, and since its not, its worth more than that.

I just took the car home, and all I can say is WOW its Heavy feeling.


I can't hardly handle this, its almost perfect all the way around like brand new. The engine runs so smooth, and when I took the oil fill cap off to see how much blowby it had, it actually produced none, which I think is amazing, because I also have a JDM spec 2.5 litre and it has 40,000 on it and it has a little push to it, but normal, qas most cars have some leakdown. But this Supra has nothing, very crazy, the worst part is I picked the car up from Cottman Trans on Belcher and Ulmerton, thats who got paid $2287 for a new trans to be installed and they were test driving this car with no oil but maybe 2 quarts in the crankcase, This is no lie, I put in 3 quarts of oil just to see it on the stick!!!!! Still was about 1 quart low after adding 3.

I asked them do you guys always drive customers cars without oil in the engine? He then says in a changed tone of a voice into a back woods RN, we don't check the oiearl. I told him that this is good....carry on ..

Any guys with Supras hangout as a group? Who around this site, Who knows the shit about the MK3 and is that what I got?
