1987 Toyota Supra Turbo review from North America
"Awesome bang for the buck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At time of purchase I was made aware of an overheating problem due to a cracked head gasket. Knowing this I still purchased the car - because of information obtained through research I knew this has been a common problem. I immediately repaired it and since (even though not a long time) it has driven like a dream.
The trunk hatch though allows water in, but this may not be a manufacturer defect.
General comments?
I believe this car is an excellent car that should last a long time.
Anyone I've known to own this car (3 people) have driven it beyond 350,000 miles. What a deal!
Can't compare to Toyota quality.
