1994 Toyota Supra Straight 6 Cylinder Engine 3.0L

Description

This particular example, chassis number JT2JA82J0R0019725, is a 1994 Toyota Supra Twin-Turbo matted to a 6-Speed Manual in sport roof configuration. This car is an unmodified example with a clean CarFax that shows 75,435 miles from new. It is finished in a Black exterior over a light tan interior. When new, the car was leased out of a dealership in Indiana, and upon being returned off-lease in August of 1996, it was immediately snapped up by one of the top salesmen at the dealership. This car stayed with its second owner for the remainder of its life up until our acquisition a few months ago. The car has always been stock and remains as such to this day. A detailed CarFax is available in the documents section which outlines regular usage and a strict maintenance routine. It appears as if the bulk of the miles were put on the car in the first 7 years of its life with an indicated odometer reading of just over 60,000 in September of 2001. After this point, the car still saw strict service intervals, but usage appears to have been more leisurely given the current indicated mileage. When we acquired the car, we treated it to a full service totaling just shy of $4,000. This servicing included the following items:
Timing belt, tensioner, and adjuster
New clutch and flywheel
New water pump
Coolant flush
New Continental ExtremeContact tires front and rear
New drive belts
New front crankshaft seal
Oil and fluids service
Four-wheel alignment
General inspection of the vehicle
As it sits now, this Supra is an unmodified, strong driver quality example. It shows some evidence of its mileage but remains in good overall cosmetic condition. With its fanatical maintenance regiment throughout its life and recent thorough servicing, this car is ready to be thoroughly driven and enjoyed. Toyota Supras represent the ultimate in modern collectability at the moment. Rarity directly correlates with collectability. With roughly 4,038 of the most desirable spec Supras (Twin Turbo, 6-Speed Models) sent to the US, we would venture to says that only a 1/3 of those examples are left in unmodified, clean condition. To have a car that has lived its whole life unmodified while also being lovingly maintained is a very rare occurrence in the JDM car world. This particular car checks all those boxes with it being a twin-turbo, sport roof, 6-speed model, that has always been stock. Because of that, this car represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a quickly appreciating 90’s icon.
Included with the sale of this vehicle are the books, accessories, and correct leather protective front bra.
EXTERIOR
Body And Paint
The black exterior paint is consistent and smooth all around with good dark color. The paint would be considered consistent with the mileage in that it does show various imperfections throughout. The front bumper and lower hood show minor stone chipping, some of which has been touched up. There is an inch-long scratch on the driver's side door that has been touched up. The rear air ducts above the rocker panels also show some minor stone chipping. The paint on the rear bumper where the license plate sits is a bit scratched up, not a significant problem since the license plate ordinarily covers this area. There is some cracking in the paint on the driver's side of the rear bumper. The body is straight with consistent shut gaps and body panel lines. It appears that the panels are all original as all VIN stickers are present in their proper locations. A pdf has been compiled of all the VIN tags and is available in the Documents section of this listing.
Glass And Trim
The headlights on the car are clear and free of any cracking, same with the turn signals and side marker lights. The rear taillights are in likewise good condition with no issues to note. The glass and windows on the car appear to be all original as all contain their proper Toyota branding. There has been a light tint applied to the side windows as well as the rear glass in order to help with day to day live-ability. The trim around the car remains in good condition and is consistent with the mileage. It retains good color and fitment although there is some light scuffing and scratching especially around the windows, likely due to normal usage while entering and exiting the vehicle.
Wheels
The polished aluminum wheels appear in good condition displaying some very minor curbing on the edges of the front driver's side and the rear passenger side wheels. Other than that the faces retain a nice overall finish with good shine and just a bit of scratching, consistent with the mileage of the vehicle.
?
Notable Flaws
The exterior of the car shows in a nice honest state that is indicative of the miles. Therefore it has some imperfections in the paint, but nothing that takes away from the overall impression of the car.
INTERIOR
Seats And Surfaces
The interior displays very nicely, having been well kept and maintained. The driver's seat exhibits some minor creasing around the edges from normal use but has solid bolsters and clean seating surfaces. The passenger seat is in excellent condition. The carpets retain good color and weave to them but do show a bit of discoloration in the driver's side footwell. The rear seats appear to have seen minimal use and remain in excellent condition. The headliner has excellent color and remains tight and clean. The plastic on the center console shows a bit of age in the way of a bit of spottiness in the coating of the plastic but nothing that distracts from the well-kept interior in any way. The dash is clean with good color and retains solid plastic. Upon very close inspection, there is just a hint of waviness on the leading edge where the dash meets the windshield.
Functionality And Accessories
Everything on the interior appears to function and operate exactly as it should. The gauges are bright and colorful and seem to read their designated functions properly. The center stack of the dash shows clean and well-labeled buttons and knobs that are in good mechanical condition as well. The windows move up and down with ease and the doors open, close and lock exactly as the should. The parking brake holds the car firmly in place, and the shifter moves smoothly through its range of motion while being encased in a smooth and clean leather boot.
ENGINE BAY AND TRUNK
Engine Bay
The engine bay on this car wears its history well and shows as having been well-loved, maintained, and cared for. The engine compartment is very clean, and the correct stickers and labels appear to all be present and accounted for. It seems the correct parts were always used when something needed replacement, and there are no external signs of any issues whatsoever. This car has been reportedly stock its whole life and as such the engine bay shows no signs of modifications.
Trunk Area
The trunk area is clean and tidy with well-fitting carpet and correct labels and stickers in place. Lifting the carpet reveals the light plastic undertray, a piece that undoubtedly goes missing on many cars. The factory spare appears to have seen minimal if any usage at all and the trunk floor underneath it remains solid and clean. The tools are present in their styrofoam compartments, and some of them even remain in their Toyota branded pouches.
Underside
The underside of the car is dry and quite clean for the mileage. The rockers are smooth and straight with excellent paint, and the front valence shows no signs of heavy scraping, etc. Other than typical road grime, the underside is clean and in order and shows no signs of any issues.
