ask if you can get a better deal on the supra since it has a lot of mileage and spend the extra money tuning, cleaning the engine and etc.

is it only between those 2 cars? for $23,000 you can get something VERY tight. you should be able to get something like a used 350z and still have $$ for mods. its more power than the celica, and a ton less miles than the supra.
i love supras..but almost 100k miles does NOT appeal to me at all.

it'll hold it's value better. yes. but you'll still have to keep the miles off of it. and since it seems like it'll be a daily driver, i doubt the miles will 'stay' low.

Don't get the GTS, since you already have one. The Supra is overpriced...try to find one with a lower mileage.

Get the supra if you get them down to 14.9... thats a deal no matter the miles, it's a investment and I deffinetly recommend Suprastore.com their prices are great, hard to find someone that will beat them. Tozer is the king. Get the supra.

they didnt make supras in 98!!!! either way i'd go for the supra..they have very high re sell value..and of course there gonna have high miles! there kinda old...i was just reading on "how many miles do you have" or whatever and most people have 30,000+ miles on there celicas...and celicas new body style were made 2000+ so you cant really say the 90,000 is a lot of miles for a car thats 8 years old!

I thought that 1998 was the last year for the Supra? In any case, $11,000 is unbelievably low for a 98 TT, which kind of makes me extremely suspicious. Is the car a rebuilt title or something? That price is literally less than half of it's blue book value. btw, 12,000 - 15,000 miles a year is considered average for a car. So a 1998 Supra with 90,000 miles on it is just about exactly what it should be.

either way its a good buy. i say the second you get your hands on it take about 500 bucks out of your budget and do a major tune up. also check the head gaskets and seals make sure nothing is leaking. either way its a good find. hope you have fun with it.

GTS with 11k of mods will be UNREAL! Are you kidding me? The Supra would spank a modded GTS even if it was stock. 4k of mods on a Supra would beat the living shit outta any GTS unless it had a rocket strapped to the back of it.

2k of mods on a supraTT will get you 450hp on pump gas. Ok, 460hp. http://www.suprastore.com/450hppackage.html
