not only do i get discounts, but every once in a while one of these rolls in. this thing was loud, damn near gave me a headache when it rolled in the garage. pushing over 800whp. one of the nicer supras ive seen.

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.
Indeed, I worked at one for five years, then quit and and I have been building pools for four years. Now I am going back to toyota to work in the body shop, can't wait!!!
This thread should have come with new pants. biggrin.gif.

As awesome as Celicas are, I'd switch to a Supra anyday. So hawt.

by the way, the owner of this supra also has another one with only 9k miles and a 911 turbo. hes the dealership owners son. damn nepotism, not fair.

there is toyota dealership owner nearby who gave his son a supra and from what i heard it was all decked out and everything probably similar to the one pictured here. stupid sh** was only about 17 or 18 and wrapped the damn thing around a tree totalling it. when i first heard that all i could do was cry. that's almost as bad as when eddie griffin (i think that's who it was) totalled the enzo ferrari while filming that redline movie (which i think it looks really lame, it's like fast and the furious for the rich and the famous).very sweet ride you got pictured there though. "drooling"

Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;)
that supra's really clean..
and it seems to me that all the sons of dealership owners are ballin'!

lol..the son of the guy who owns the toyota dealership in windsor gave his son a brand new M5, a Supra TT and a Ferrari F360. Then he gave him another $80K to soup up the ferrari because it wasnt fast enough.

Cant wait for July, thats when i start work at the toyota dealership.
yeah the owners and family of owners of dealerships have freakin' CASH!..the owner of the dealership my friend used to work for was driving his Ferarri, went into a ditch and totalled it, and they just left it and walked away from it. shoot i'd take it off thier hands if they wanted and part it out for money wink.gif

What kind of Toyota dealership do you work at?
Of the 4 cars I can see in your pics, 3 aren't Toyotas.
There's a Volvo, a Subie, and what looks like a Jeep.
Or is that a different view of the Volvo?

i'll post later some pics of my friend supra (1000WHP)

lol look at the plate holder on the supra. pedersen toyota/scion/volvo is where i work. i work primarily on the volvo side though. in the garage i work in, id say about 70% are volvos, 20% toyota, and 10% everything else.

that thing probably screams....

a friend of mine had a stock 7m in a ae86 and it ran high 11's with a 50 shot only. only thing that sucks is that the engine is pretty much in your lap
he hasnt had a chance to get a good solid run in yet..he keeps breaking every thing. He broke both of the driveshafts in the ford 9" in the rear, twisted the driveshaft from the tranny, broke a detroit locker in the rear, blew his clutch up first pass. Even with a twisted driveshaft and a busted clutch he still ran 11.9 or somethin. But hes waiting till the summer to let her loose. Best part is..its still streetlegal. When hes on the street he still runs his original snowflake rims on the front and a set of MKIV supra wheels in the rear. But when he hits the track hes got a set of OZ Ultraleggara's. 18x8 in the front and 18x10 in the rear.
well its for sale, anybody have 75k laying around?

supra

here is a pic i took under the hatch while i was cleaning it, and i got to drive it! only a couple hundred feet but oh well, ill take what i can get

no offence, but i don't think i'd appreciate someone taking a picture of my car is posting it online without my permission or even blanking out my license plate.
