Price on a 92 MKIII?

[Wildfire007]

I currently have an 88 Supra Turbo and was considering selling it to my roommate for 3k or 3.5k after I get the AC, heat, and cosmetic issues taken care of. Shouldn't take more than 500 for that stuff. Maybe 7. Well I know a guy here that wants to sell his 92 Supra Turbo and he's asking 5500. This is the main reason I was considering selling mine because the 92 is gorgeous with all maintenance receipts kept up with. Even the engine bay is clean. Is he asking a bit much? Just wondering if I'd be wasting money and should keep my current "fixer upper".

if its a MINT 92 turbo 5 speed with black leather $5500 isnt too bad.

yea I would sell mine for 8k. I also have 140k miles on the stock engine. Might not sell but It's worth it man. Id saying anything below 6 is a steal.

i remember the difference from going 87 to 89 was pretty nice im assuming the 92's are awesome.

 

[Wildfire007]

Yes, the only problem with it is that the paint is starting to fade a bit. Other than that its breath taking. Thanks for the input guys. Guess I'll see what I can do about that then.

92 are more rare and some have black leather and some have sunroofs. And a cd player and a sub. And there a tad heavier.

I'd love to have a mint '91-92..

Do eeeetttt!!!


What color is it, auto or 5 speed and what roof does it have?

 

[Wildfire007]

It is dark green, and its a 5-speed. An auto is just a waste of a Supra in my opinion. If I remember correctly it was a hardtop, but its been months since I last saw it so I may be mistaken. I do remember thinking "wow this car is gorgeous". Besides on my 88 I would convert everything to 89+ except for the front end so why not just save myself the trouble? lol

 

[RazoE]

Dark green? That's a JDM only color. Hardtop turbos are rare, you mainly see targas and sunroofs. I'd say go for it.

 

[Wildfire007]

I'll see what I can manage. Hope I can save up the money in the next couple months. I'm moving to NV from Alabama. Not sure if the 88 will make the drive lol.

What part of NV? It would be sweet to have a 92 Supra here in NV, Since I'm the only one that I know that has a 91 Turbo Targa up here in Reno, NV.

 

[Wildfire007]

Lol Actually dude its Reno. If I end up keeping my 88, which may be the case due to money needs you'll at least have an 88 Turbo Hardtop out there with yuh. Also mine is sorta a project so if you'd be interested to help out Supra noobie like me that would be great.

If you aren't able to get the '92 before you move to Reno, don't worry to much, you can often find clean '89-91's for under $3500 here in CA. I have seen '90 turbos on car lots for as low $3900. The MKIII's have very little value here in CA when compared to the rest of the country. A lot were sold here, and since rust isn't an issue, most have survived. If you are set on selling the '88, it might be better to sell it before you move, chances are unless it is clean, you wont get what your roomate is willing to pay for it now. Deals like this '90 Turbo targa for $3k obohttp://sacramento.craigslist.org/cto/2538675235.html, is the norm, not the rare find.

Rust can still be an issue i bought my 89 in san diego and i have some rust problems but not to bad in most areas

 

[Wildfire007]

I think I may end up keeping the 88 but I'm not sure. My friend said that he'll trade me his Jetta to make sure I make the trip. Once I'm out there I could always sell that and use that money to get another Supra.
