Guest fcuk1_6 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hi all , I'm currently looking into the prospect of buying a Supra TT, just need to try to persuade the girl friend then try to find the right one for the right doh. I've currently got a 350Z that I'm trying to shift and once it goes I'll be on the hunt properly. Think I'll be after a UK manual model but finding them quite hard to come by and the girlfriend (who shares the car with me as I have a company car) will want leather and is very particular on colours so prob not red or white which doesn't make things any easier. Also looking at RX7s but dont think their reliability is up to scratch, a supercharged 350Z and maybe 200sx S15s. I always like to join an owners forum before I buy, find it's always a good way to get a feel for the good and bad points of the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz6002 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Welcome You'll pay way over the odds for a decent UK manual car. If I were you I'd talk to Jurgen on here about importing a nice one from Japan instead. He can do the leather for you and any other bits you want on the car before you pick it up. That's the best way to get the most for your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I agree with Gaz mate...look no further than Jurgen (JM-Imports). As to your choice of car you have come to the right place - forget the other cars and go for the Supra! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever I get for the 350Z I can put back into its replacement and maybe up to £2k more but would need that to cover any increase in insurance as well.

monsween Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 20's on the supra will be a bit of an issue. It'll handle pretty bad. Nice Z tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Good to know the insurance mite not hurt as much as I thought When I first checked insurance quotes on price comparison sites, the Supra (import) was about half the price of a Skyline or Impreza.
