1986 Toyota Supra review from North America
"A great car if you get a chance to buy one."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gaskets blew out and are very expensive to fix.
The valve seals have leaked ever since the head gasket blew out.
The glove box broke.
General comments?
This is the best car I have ever driven, and I would buy another one in a heartbeat. The supra is really quick to accelerate and handles well. I took good care of it so it still looks really nice, but it is an old car and things are starting to break. If you get one of these cars beware of the head gaskets they are a pain to fix and very expensive, mine cost about 2,000 dollars to fix.
I wrecked it not long ago and don't have the money for the body work, so now I drive a 1983 Honda Accord hatchback.
