*This is key to being 6'5", and getting laid in a MkIII Supra
When I had my 87 @ 140....the top was off

Magazine Skidpan and braking tests are a valid comparison ,rather than a reflection of tyre choice, if all the cars are fitted with the manufacturer supplied tyres.

In response the original question asked 3.5 years ago I’d say original Supras are just now coming into their own. There was a lower mile TT bid up to 58K that seller backed out of on BAT last August when he thought the reserve was unfair. Typical dingus move befitting some of the owners of these cars. Popped up on evilbay a month later with 65K BIN. He had the nerve to use the BAT auction as an indicator of value.

I do not disbelieve in anything. I start from the premise that everything is true until proved false. Everything is possible.
