Im getting a 1987

A good indication if it's a turbo or not is if it has the spoiler... Not always, as some people remove it from a turbo or add it to a N/A...

oo yea, and another thing i know about it is that it has a removable top. I dunno if that makes it better or not but yea, and i guess you can fit it in the trunk and take it with you.

I've had 2 different targa top supra's. One had ALOT of body twist with the top off, the other didn't. The difference that I could see is on the passenger door the the one that had alot of twist, had a piece missing, the part that sticks inside the doorjam. I'm guessing it's kind of a lock for the door to make the car more stable with the top off. There's a lever that pushes in when the door shuts and that was broke off too. I haven't torn into the door to see what they actually do, but thats my guess and I'm sticking to it!

ok heres somthing new i found out that it has like the sport package or sumthing like that, i think that means it has turbo. Well i hope anyway. If im right that means, 230 hp, yay!

Sports package means it has TEMS, the adjustable suspension. Both N/A and turbo's have em.

Well this is what i read on this one website.

1987: First Supra turbo model is introduced. The intercooled, turbocharged engine boosts hp to 230 and torque to 246 ft-lbs. Other unique features of the turbo are an engine oil cooler and integrated rear spoiler. The sports package, which is standard on the turbo and optional on the base model, offers limited slip differential (LSD), TEMS, and headlamp washers. New Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) available as an option on all models. Besides the Turbo's standard 1-peice spoiler, other visual differences include a boost gauge where the NA's Voltmeter would reside, and a "turbo" badge on the rear of the car.

heres the website:

It tells all about the supra from 1986.5-1992, and the changes in every year. A few of you might find it interesting.

The only way you can know for sure is too look under the hood or get the vin number. All the supras, n/a and turbo, Came with every option.
