SleepyEyedMKIII,
Sometimes when you buy an old car, you may get a good one.
It really helps if you know about cars so that you can check them out really well.
One may get lucky and find a car that runs great and never needs anything.
Like my car, the only problem it had was the BHG and of course being in NY will eat a car up with the salt even if only driven a couple of those years of its life.

Sometimes, even if you do check them out, it may seem that a car is cursed! lol
Some get lucky; some don't.

Buying old cars is a risk indeed.
I would say that these Supras are very reliable cars, IF well maintained.
Regardless, MKIII's are still old and most have high miles.

If it is too much for you and you don't like it, sell it to someone who knows them better...and would cure the sleepy eye deal too. lol (Just kidding.)

Anyways, good luck with whatever you decide to do.

Is this thread going anywhere?
You have to decide on your own what to do with the car.
Bitching at it here is pointless really.
Also, can you slow it down with all the cursing a little.

Cool Moving on to other fixes.

So ends the saga of "sleepyeyedmkiii".

It happens ! More often that it should. The wrecking yards are full of these stories.

I looked back the other nite while lying in bed, and realized I've owned 52 cars and trucks. Only one was brand new, a Camry (great car, 3.5 yrs of nothing but oil changes).

Buying a used vehicle means sometimes you are purchasing someone else's trouble mobile. Some are worth the $$$, others aren't even worth the price of a tow. Many times you won't find out till it breaks down on you, usually when you're out on a date with that new girl. (very impressive !!)

I have always told people to get a professional mechanic to look the vehicle over before buying it. They can give you an estimate of any needed repairs. Then you will know what you need to fix to enjoy it. Or walk away from a bad deal.

My old chineese proverb saying is: "Man made it, so it will break !!! (man needs to sell parts to feed family)"........
