About this Supra:
I bought this Supra in 2007 from the second owner in South Carolina with 89,000 miles. I’ve owned this beautiful MA70 for almost a decade and have taken special care to tastefully upgrade nearly all of its components. Almost every mechanical part, hose, belt, line, and sensor are either upgraded or have been replaced with authentic OEM parts. Every modification was picked with the intention of having a high-horsepower-capable car and then tune it to half of those tolerances. The purpose of this was to have a fast and very reliable Supra. With this build, this Supra has never broken down or left me stranded. It’s currently tuned for 402whp/408wtq (dyno sheet attached) at 17 psi. The motor and tranny are actually upgraded to hold nearly twice that much power. There is over 10,000 miles on the build.
Since the supra has been obtained, it has been upgraded and maintained only by a few very reputable and well-known professionals. I am confident that this car will be reliable and a pleasure to the next owner. The buyer of this supra will receive a 3” binder of all the records and receipts dating back to the early 90’s. The interior of this Supra is in exceptional shape with only a few flaws from aging. There are no rips on the seats, and no major blemishes on the interior. The exterior has a few dings around the doors from daily driving. There are also a few spots where the clear coat seems to be fading and are noticeable only within a foot or two and if you’re actively looking for them. This Supra has never been driven in the winter by any of its owners and has always been garaged.
This supra pulls very, very strong and shifts extremely fast. The transmission is a performance build and still drives very tame under normal driving behavior. The engine standalone and transmission control allows for the owner, or a professional tuner to make adjustments to the owner's preferences.
If you're looking for a 3rd generation supra that can easily keep up with modern day performance cars, this is the supra for you.
Overall, I would give the exterior of this car an 8 out of 10. The interior a 9 out of 10. The mechanics and performance a 10/10. I have done my best to be as upfront as possible.
