Hi every body, i am looking to buy my first supra, not sure which model is the least hassle, is the auto box reliable? is the non turbo model quick enough or do you recommend the twinturbo, any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated

Also does anyone own a manual non turbo supra, as i would like to know if they are quick enough or not? cheers

 

Welcome to the club.

 

Quite a few members do...

 

Depends on what you mean by quick enough? I think the 0 - 60mph time is 6.5 secs? So they are fairly quick.

The auto boxes are very good and these days I tend to prefer auto's unless I only had track day only intentions. My auto's on the road are superb even when pushing on very quick.

 

The n/a's IMO will be suitable and adequate in performance terms provided the engine has been correctly serviced and maintained. If so the engines are quite robust with nothing to worry about.

 

If you can stretch comfortably and affford the additional running costs of the twin turbo, I'd personally recommend a tiwn turbo.

Thanks for all the valuable info, just want to make sure i get the right model, as i don't want to get blown away by some boy racer in something like a civic type r or a clio[sHOCK][/sHOCK]

Nor do we as you will give us a bad name :D:d

 

N/A - Quick in comparison with most hot hatches

T/T - Very Quick, faster than most things except supercars etc

T/T BPU- Very Very quick stays with pretty much everything but the hypercars and bikes.

Single- Just plain Mental!!!!
