I cannot answer that question other than to say that there is a certain nostalgic feel to owning a MKIII Supra - an addiction that is purely erotic, in a sense.

Since I cannot afford to put her in an electrical shop, I am often found upside down in the floorboard with one leg on the roof of the car and the other hugging the seat for leverage - and being teased about being a contortionist. Still yet, I refuse to give up.

The younger kids constantly pry me with information, asking how fast the car is, whats under the hood, etc. Every time I venture out, someone comments on what a pretty car I drive. At least once a week, someone wants to buy it. I figure this - if there is such value in my Supra, it will only go up in value, so why sell ? I love my car so much that if she were to go down, I would cover it and let the tires sink into the ground.

With its exotic look, the MKIII Supra is sleek and mean. Its comfort and handling is simply awesome. I don't care how long it takes me - or how much it costs, I will one day complete the mods (Level 4 completion) and will then, rest.
