craiglist find mitsupra

Is this a members car before I make fun of it?

I've never understood why this is done. Supra's are sweet no doubt, but I'm just not a fan. Oops, too late. Sorry..

No, it's not a supra wing, that thing looks like it was made of cardboard lol. I've always thought the whole Supra "conversion" looked nasty.

I saw(just for you Peter) this at Brainerd the last Wednesday night drag:

There's a lot of people out there trying bodywork that definitely shouldn't.

Even if it was a member here we would still make fun of it, and he would be the new payban king.

When it comes to performance cars, FWD doesn't work for me.

The back end of that Eclipse reminds me of the characters from Happy Tree Friends

Re: craiglist find mitsupra

I was up there too and if I remember correctly it didnt even run high 14s. I've definitely seen worse looking ones than that silver one, but still why would you want to change the body kit over to that? I've never understood why someone would wanna do the mitsupra conversion ha

Re: craiglist find mitsupra

I guess I get it:

Nice used '94 Supra = $25,000

Krappy used dsm 2wd = $1,500
Preventive maintenance costs = $0
Supra rear end kit = $500
Shitload of bondo = $30
Shitload of sandpaper = $20
Total for almost a Supra = $2,050

Having a ghetto fab ricer car = priceless!
