1991 Toyota Supra review from North America

I bought this car in 1999 because I wanted something fast. Right after I bought it the head gasket blew. Ouch!

Then the EGR valve and many other little things like hoses and the radiator started to go, one at a time.

The only thing wrong with the interior of the car is the leather of the front seats was dried and cracked when I bought it, the back seats are fine.

The car came from an auction and it obviously had not been well cared for, so I had a lot to make up for. I have learned a lot working on this car and getting to know the professionals I trust to do what I can't.

When I first got this car it seemed like a money pit-my boyfriend hated it. But now that I have had the engine rebuilt (by my NEW boyfriend) and I am "Religious" about my maintenance, my Ex drives the car every day. I'm hoping to get it back from him soon-I miss her.

Anyone looking to own a toy like this should remember that high performance=high maintenance. But that it is so worth it. I have had Japanese tourists to the factory I work at stop, pose and take pictures of my car.

It is very comfortable to drive, the lumbar is awesome on road trips. It gets about 25 mpg, not bad for a turbo. I have not had it to full speed, but it will go -trust me.

UPDATE!! In June of 2008 I got my baby back! The heater control valve went out so I gave my ex another car and got the Supra back. I drove her all summer and I still love this car. My boyfriend says he will rebuild the engine one more time and I'm going to have her painted. The funny thing is that now my ex(the guy who hated my car) misses her-isn't that great!
