Just wondering if anyone utilizes their Supra for daily driving. I'm buying a low mile 86.5 which I'll drive as my car while fixin her up. Once she's cherry, I'll garage her, but in the meantime, I gotta get ta work.

Is this blasphemy, or does anyone else drive their Supra as thier primary car?

i drove mine as a daily for two or three years. blew part of the intake and decided to strip it and do an engine conversion. got a cheap corolla as a runabout now. a LOT cheaper to run around in. supras are fun to drive everyday, but you just pay for the gas, thats all.

I drive it every day, for 3 years now. I love to get in it each time, as it has a certain, sports car feel, and handling. How could I ever go back to a conventional car again???

Also, I manage a auto repair shop, so I test drive all kinds of cars every day. I haven't been in but a few that felt as good, or that I would even consider having.

Drove my MkII for 7 years daily. Even in -50. Still going strong. N/A 1983.

Right on. I've never been big on garagin a car. I wanna buy a Supra to enjoy driving again. The automatic family mobile (Saturn V6) just ain't cuttin it. :P

Now that it is running, It is my new daily driver. I just love this car, i cant explain it.(maybe the boost :lol: ) I have a 04 ford mach1 and a 05 gsxr 600 but still just like to play with the supra. It rides better than my mach1 better on gas to!

Daily driver here too, selling my 82 Toyota Hilux and putting all my money into the supra. Should get better gas milage (it's not at the moment, running SUPER rich), as mu truck get about 12-15 MPG. That and I live in Texas, so A/C is a MUST, I got tired of going to work and feeling exhausted fromt he drive from being so hot.
