Here's a little background:
I can remember back, when I was still in Junior High School, when I saw a car in the Yellow Page that caught my eyes. I found out it was a 1986.5 Toyota Supra NA. Six years later I came across a 1987 Pearl White Toyota Supra Turbo. I brought the car home the following week. A few years later and over 150,000 miles ticking on the car, I thought it was time to give it up and get a new one. All I can think of is the fourth generation Supra. Just weeks after I sold the 1987 Supra Turbo, my brother saw a 1994 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo in the Friday ad. As soon as he saw the ad, he called me. I was having a meal at the time, and as soon as he told me, I dropped everything and went out to look at it. The very same day we went to see the car was the very same day I bought it.
The original owner was forced to sell the Supra when he went back to Japan. He left it with a friend who owned a body shop. It had about 24,000 miles on it when I picked it up. The car was practically brand new and was all stock except for a turbo timer. It now has over 81,000 miles and still running very strong!
