I am looking at buying this supra and wondering what you guys think. Price ok? What should i look for before buying? Any known problems with this year? Heres a link http://kalamazoo.craigslist.org/cto/1464942364.html
For the mods listed, the mileage listed and the overall appearance (though pictures often look better than in person) it's pretty damn cheap.
It does not mention engine work, just a ton of bolt ons. Headgaskets are notorious if not tackled properly. Outside of that, general maintainence and upkeep are the keys to a good Supra. Ask about the records and whether the gasket has been replaced.
The brake kit, turbo and rims alone are worth more than the asking price, which makes me suspicious as to whether this may be a scam or not. If it is in driving distance, it's worth looking into if you're in the market for a supra. It might be a fire sale as someone is out of a job or something, it may be a scam, or they haven't mentioned that it may need to have the engine rebuilt. Check into it closely, and have a mechanic give it a good once over before paying for it.

They mentioned the engine was rebuilt and has less than 5000 miles on the rebuild.
Ask for any and all maintenance records and also if there is a warranty on the rebuild. Also ask if the rebuild included the turbo. Mosat importantly if you decide to buy it have a qualified mechanic check it out and get his/her opinion if this would be a good buy. Good luck
oh you know just the basic scum bag trying to make a dollar through scaming on craigslist. They just email you with a sad story and how they want to use ebay to do the deal. just some hacker trying to take advanage of the un informed
