Xzarik Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Yeah I found the buyers guide very helpful! Looking for a manual, but not really fussed what else I get with it. Don't really get along with autos... Best thing about driving is changing gear for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing about driving is changing gear for me. i have to agree with gear changing. if you are not fused about what else, then the a NA is a good starter but be warned if you are going to want +++BHP then just buy a Twin Turbo because the NA is not really tunable friendly. Plus it has a different and weaker manual gearbox so swapping engines is not really the best option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Welcome dude. What budget do you want to spend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xzarik Posted August 31, 2011 Author Share Posted August 31, 2011 Budget isn't all that high, but I can foresee down the line when i'm earning big bucks i'll probably have more to splash out. I don't think I can feasibly go over £4500, as i'm only 24 so insurance might be a bit insane with a higher-end model! I had the pleasure of driving a 98 MR2 a few weeks back which is what really made me decide that i'm going to take the plunge and finally get a Supra! It's pretty much all for the look anyway, it's the most beautiful car i've ever seen and after spending hours checking out all the cars on this forum I can't NOT get one now!

ripped_fear Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 £4500 is good money for a NA manual mate you should be able to pick up a right jem. Im 21 with 3yrs no claims all mods declared for 900 so you no fo comparison reasons. insurance isnt to bad in comparison to other jap cars.

Luxluc Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 For 4.5k, you'll find a nice NA manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc_p Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 As the others have said, for £4500, you can find a really nice N/A manual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
