Down here they\'re a regular occurence.  I see at least one every week, and I see this one everyday.  Check carfax.com, they have a few supras that are fairly good priced.  A doctor owned one and only had 5800 (not 58000) miles on it, and its selling it for only 30000+!

There is a garage where I live that specialise in importing Jap cars and always have 5-6 supras in stock at any time.
I go every couple of weeks to stare at the skylines and dream of when one will be mine!

Its funny, cause I rarely ever see Vipers in Brisbane, acouple maybe downtown, but then again, there an American car.

There are ALOT of Porsche Boxsters around, and I mean ALOT, but then there are also alot of 200SX\'s and 300ZX\'s.

in cali we get alot of the high end american, and german cars owned by bald, small penised, doctors and such, but we have very few high end jap imports, i wish we had a more eclectic variety.

Yeah, there are alot of JAP imports in AUS.

But I suppose thats cause we are closer to AUS then the US.

It\'s more of an emissions thing here. Same reason why if we even get a euro or jap spec car..is wayyy de-tuned. Not to mention much different NHTSB crash test regulations.

doesnt really matter, those motors are damn solid..capable of prettyhigh HP numbers before it needs a bottom end.

Yeah, they are designed that way, to be able to take whatever you give it.

That would be nice. But what I don\'t see a lot of anymore are Pinto\'s, wonder why. I am more of an Oldish car buff, I am not in tune with these new imports and rally look. I want the muscle, not the turbo. Anyone know where I can find a 70\' challenger with a six pack?

Well, i live in a little place here in the UK, the only time i have seen a car like that is on TV. All you get round here is posh tw4t$ driving round in their Jags and Aston Martins. I\'m pretty interested in modified cars, might try to et into it when i have a bit more money, which i doubt will be for a few years yet!!

I\'ll chose a Supra over a jag and a aston martin!!! am i the only one who thinks this?

Weird thing is that a supra with out the turbo is a damn strong inline V-6, me and my friend raced a stock one in his 93 turbo MR-2 and we were neck and neck goin 80 till we passed a cop goin the other way, lucky for us he just flashed his lights, and kept goin.

HHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
