The 2nd gen Supras were legendary cars, the first gen ones were forgettable. Thats one is modified and I would be scared a kid whooped the crap out of it. Lowered is the first sign.. I would not pull the trigger on that one..

If you are now more mature and responsible, why are you looking to buy a car to enable you to drive too fast?

Don't be stupid.

Ok guys/gals, I think I found an even better car for me. This one is an original owner car with NO modifications. I have owned 3 of these in the past, and with less than $200 worth of mods (zombie chip, glass pack, cone air filter and boost controller), they have no problems running running a high 13's in the quarter. That is WAY better than the 17's my Escort runs. I bet I can get this for under $2,000 too. I am probably going to pull the trigger on this one instead.

A one adult owner, Probe turbo -- that's a great find! If you're driving it from IL, though, during the winter, go south to St. Louis and then west on I-40 as opposed to taking the northern route back to NV.

I know someone who had the MX-6 turbo, second generation, and it was a good car. I think that she had the original MX-6 turbo, too, though I think the second generation had more horsepower. For her, it was the styling that made her replace the first one.

Definitely suspicious and needs checking.

If this means anything, LVD . . .

Back in 2005, I found one of the best vehicles I've ever owned in Central Illinois.

Wait a couple of months and the trip home should be fun.

Good Luck

That Probe has been driven by a kid. What tacky stuff.

Why are you wanting a car from eBay, especially in IL with all that rust?

Scan your local Craigslist for a car...
