Default Just bought a 1990 Supra Turbo!

Really stoked I found one and in the condition that it is in. I'm picking it up tomorrow and will get some pics to show.

First thing I noticed is the cloth seats? Thought that was strange seeing as most come with leather correct? The car is in awesome condition with 110K miles on it, really hasn't been driven all that much in the past 10 years. I'm going to go through it and check to make sure everything is a-ok. Hope to rub shoulders with the fellow members with MkIII's.

Hey is that the one off KSL. I wanted to look at that one when I bought mine but the guy wouldn't answer his phone. $5500 right? Did you talk him down at all? The guy I bought mine form wouldn't budge, but mine was a smokin' deal anyhow. That white one was one of the nicest I'd seen, at least in the pics.

Welcome to the club! Looking forward to the pics. My 88 has cloth seats and I actually prefer that (leather has a tendancy to cook legs... and crack with age if incorrectly cared for). I think out of all the 87-90 Supras I peeked at, only one had full leather.

Hi there, hehehe, 110k miles wow, that's almost half the mileage that my car has.

My car has cloth seats and door inserts, I prefer cloth seats unless is a black car with tan interior, that's my idea of a perfect exterior/interior for leather.

So, whats going to be your first act, changing oil, diff fluid, or tranny fluid? lol.

By the way, hit up some pics already.

Pics are coming today! I picked her up last night. The car really hasn't been driven more then 200 miles in 10 years.... this thing has been in the garage forever. I am noticing that there is an extreme lag in the turbo and I wouldn't be surprised if Im pushing only 2 lbs boost. Im checking cygnus X1 to troubleshoot this issue. Other then that the car is in beautiful condition. Once the lady gets home (she has the camera) I'll get some pics and post em up!
