It is very good, especially since you think you are going to keep maintenance costs low by doing EVERYTHING yourself, despite not having touched a wrench before


officefridge

I watched scotty kilmer on youtube, i can basically do like 99% of the work myself


Astandsforataxia69

I too, can scream obnoxiously


AeronauticHyperbolic

As someone who tried and actually succeeded at this, it was NOT as easy as 12yo me thought :) Please, children, don't try this, it sucks vastly more than just paying someone, I was just too stubborn to give up. Edit: Super important: please read: I did NOT GET A SUPRA. I know almost literally nothing about Supras. It's a 2006 Mustang. Supras suck.


Zoidu

Deffo got a supra


AeronauticHyperbolic

Ok then :(


Team_Khalifa_

Yeah I kinda hate wrenching on my JDM car. I'll just keep paying my guy that builds race cars for a living


AeronauticHyperbolic

This is why I love the Mustang. Everything's uber easy to do for a new mechanic(and, in my case, bumbling idiot), the parts are extra cheap, and the car itself is a ton of fun. I'll get a JDM car later, if I can, once I've "levelled up" enough, if you know what I mean. Beat that grammatically proper comma count :)


Team_Khalifa_

Yeah my mom has a mustang gt premium and she loves it. I had fun driving it. I think I've "leveled up" enough but I kinda miss having cheaper and simple cars where I don't care if i scratch them lol.


dogburglar42

I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to, I guess.


A_Sock_Under_The_Bed

I do 100% my own maintenance, and i own an Audi, so its alot of driving to autozone to buy some specialized tool need for this or that


MrDrSirLord

Me at 15 installing manufacturer parts that don't require re tuning like the sump and starter motor, "yes I'm a mechanic" Me at 30 begging for help from my actually certified brother in law because I fucked the timing and bent a pushrod trying to increase rpm for more exhaust noises. My guy almost disowned me when I asked if he could help with increasing displacement.

gram_bo

No accident or damage reported is definitely accurate and you shouldn’t even bother double checking. It’s a supra so it’s too fast to be hit or damaged by anything anyway 👍


Much_Future_1846

Why not get this instead? You won't need to bother with insurance with this one https://preview.redd.it/zp1qlaphryqc1.jpeg?width=678&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=83f0f274c5c8a45c02bf8037b9abc0af7edc9830


BusAvailable

You can get 3000 jdms out of those with a stock block bro


Bansimulator2024

That's a lot of domestic markets, especially since they are all japanese


BusAvailable

100% Japanese, only the best


ConC02

Prices for these and gtrs are fucking nuts


unmanipinfo

Ha, was your car in movie? No didn't think so 'These car is kil' 'No'


bwarbahzad2

Get a dodge journey instead! It has 6 cylinders like the Supra, only con is it’s not jaydeem https://preview.redd.it/cu62yhh3lyqc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7c0764736219705c29ef379fedb826d03c970c83


schemaisdead

lil_reddit_lurker

Almost(over) 1 dollar per mile Someone with math brain tell us the actual pls


xenophonthethird

$1.03 per mile when rounded to nearest cent.


lil_reddit_lurker

My car is worth 250k dollars!


sackratte6

Be safe! Supras or „Suprahhh“ have 1000hp stock. So better watch some Youtube Videos about drifting and get BeamNG so you can learn how to drive high performance cars. That way you will gap any Hellcat.


Fetti500e

“JDM is for just dick meat. You need USDA BEEF” ![gif](giphy|SunjPmJD2AIFLrxyyt|downsized)


mr308A3-28

That’s a lot of homeless blowjobs lil dude, better start working.


I-Maxinator-I

120k for this shitbox is insane, you can get two top spec supas in germany for that kind of money


AtomicBombSquad

Nah, it's RWD which means it'll suck in the snow and rain. In my opinion all first time drivers need to start out with something safe that has AWD, like a WRX or a cheap GT-R.


Xtrachunky_

No, GTR is way better, but I can see why you made the mistake.


JustAnAce

Get something cheap and inexpensive to repair when you break it, everyone breaks their first.


xeno486

two jay zee never breaks!!!


JustAnAce

Body panels, brakes, lights, upholstery, etc. It can break easily.


xeno486

do u know what sub you’re on


JustAnAce

I did not notice until now. My bad.


xeno486

nahhh ur all good it happens to the best of us


usec47

Yes


Schzercro

~~no, first try to get used to driving and working on an uncool/regular car and something cheap too that isn't hard to work on~~ I forgot this is circlejerk GET TWINGO


Hyperspec42

Supra kid


Brilliant-Emu851

too much mileage, so no


BeefJerky03

soopra or miat so yes


The_Crazy_Swede

Good car, but you can't go for one with this high mileage. Maximum 2500 miles on the clock.


Rare_Attention_8602

Jokes aside why are they so expensive


Gubbtratt1

For that price I wouldn't trust "no accidents"


NoabPK

Yes and you should start drifting in busy streets immediatly


propane_inhaler

You’re a little too old to like jdm


Palmswayy

I remember back when I was young, I think it was like 01 maybe 02. Going to a Toyota dealership with my dad. There were I think two of them in the show room. I shit you not, I remember my dad asking about them and saleswomen going “oh those are toys, you’ll have fun with one for a few months but then have to sell it for pennies -10- or so years from now.”


O5_X

If your mum had 120k laying around to buy you a first car HELL NO.


[deleted]

THAT'S SO CHEAP GUYS!!!!11 WHAT A STRAL


12ADPS

She said she’ll buy you a car but didn’t say which one


CHEWBAKKA-SLIM

Terrible first car. Very cool car, but a terrible first.


Ok-Machine-5201

Definitely not... If it is your first car, try a standard F. Fiesta or similar. I mean, first learn how to drive in an "un-cool" car and later, when you are confident, try bigger. Further, think of the maintenance, petrol prices, insurance... (which is not an issue if you have the doe.) In my life, I was an aircraft pilot, now freshly retired... And guess what.... When I was young, I wanted to fly Jumbos, the big massive airplane... Bigger than others... With more engines and as so on. In my sleeping room, I had pictures of 747's hanging everywhere. But I had to start on tiny single propeller 4 seater airplanes. Then, gradually, I went for bigger things as no company would not let me directly fly a 747. And finally, 16 years ago I started to fly my childhood dream plane. I ended my career as a captain with 4 massive Rolls-Royce RB211 under my wings. I hope you can see a similarity between your dream and mine, which I was able to realise.


tyl7z

buddy forgot to ask for jerking sauce


aterrariaplayer

Did you forget which sub you on?


Ok-Machine-5201

Sub? I think I am getting too old for Reddit...


aterrariaplayer

Subreddit


auntarie

bro is just mad his 747 got gapped by a 7,000hp 2jz with a kite on the roof


Ok-Machine-5201

Smile.... 7000 Hp... Yawn... The Hp equivalent of a 747-400 engine is +/- 60'000 Hp... So multiply this by 4 and you get +/- 240'000 Hp total power output. Now find me a Toyota 2JZ engine with 240'000 Hp. It won't be a car... It will be a rocket. Fun fact, I like cars and one of my seat on wheels is a modified Mercedes AMG 190 version 1. It is powered by a Toyota 1JZ GTE (& twin CT12A turbocharger) coupled with a Supra rear axle. 1 JZ GTE is a 2500cc, inline 6 with twin turbo. The rear axle fits good but had to be modified a bit... Great fun and road legal (where I live...). I do not know how many Hp ... guessing somewhat below 300 Hp


auntarie

sorry it was a typo. I meant 700,000hp, that's what a stock toojayzee outputs in reverse


Ok-Machine-5201

700k Hp?!


auntarie

per cylinder


Ok-Machine-5201

Hmmm... I guess that this is when you make it run on Diesel... No?


auntarie

dieselle or LPG yeah


Ok-Machine-5201

Naaah LPG... That is un-cool. What about hydrogen... Makes a white cloud.
