I’m sure you can find a tt for around that price, just have a look on for sale section or contact Jurgen here on the forum. about reliability they don't need an engine rebuilt every 60k miles , a good maintained supra engine can last forever. I think I read somewhere here on the forum of members with 150k+ miles on the engine with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradleyh_15 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 your making a good choice! as said a well maintained engine will last for ages however it might be worth saving a couple of thousand more and buying one with a known history that's been well maintained from a member or one off jm imports! good luck with your purchase!

JnrEast21 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 thats what stopped me getting another RX7, unless you either have money to burn or are a very gifted rotary mechanic, the rebuilds are a bitch!!! plus trying to find a local guy to work on them (and know what hes doing) is another story all together... the supra is a great car (and the attention you get cruising around is awesome) even though mine is an N/A, i still think i made the right choice in getting a supra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
