need help buying
 
so ive decided i need more power, my D15 power eg6 just doesnt give me any arousal anymore haha. after watching the fast and the furious a shit-load of times ive decided i need a supra :) ive looked everywhere for advice on buying one. but still need tons of help, which is why i am asking these questions
- are supras reliable (or are they more or less DSM's haha)?
-what needs to be maintained regularly (including replacing parts)?
-are the TT MKVI less reliable?

any feedback would be appreciated greatly

Yes, Mkiv Supras are very reliable, especially if they're bone-stock (unmodified) and properly maintained.

For maintenance, simply follow the owner's manual. Mainly just fluid changes, etc.

After about 100K miles a couple of things need to be changed that aren't in the owner's manual - the harmonic dampener and the coilpacks.

The (unmodified) TTs are not less reliable, again assuming proper maintenance and synthetic oil changes.

one more question. keeping in mind they are reliable. would they be a good candidate for a Daily Driven car? apart from winter anyways:dance:

Definitely, if you keep it bone stock, and you keep it well-maintained (even in the winter!). If modified, it depends a LOT on how well it is modified, and how it is driven/'abused'.
