Description
We all know that a car like this 1984 Toyota Celica Supra Mark II is entering a new era of valued classics. So to find one with such a good mix of preservation and investments makes for a great value at this price. Of course, the rear appeal here is a getting a fuel-injected, five-speed coupe from the era of great driver's cars.
This generation of the Supra was an instant hit the moment it first hit the scene in the 1980s. Flip-up headlights gave it plenty of legitimacy in an era when even the slant-nosed Porsche 911 offered the flat front end appearance. But the front air dam, full-length power bulge hood, and sleek hatchback design gave the Supra its own distinctive and very aggressive personality. Not only does that make it desirable, but this example also shows long-term care. These came from the factory with some aggressive angles and kit, but while many were altered to go wilder, they resisted additions to keep this example looking stock (and valued). The correct black paint was given a recent wet sand and polish to make sure it has an attractive gloss. Even the details are nice with clean signals, good rubber, and those factory alloys remaining crisp and distinctive.
The interior is clean, complete, and impressive. Supras came with nicely bolstered bucket seats that are both body conforming and all-day comfortable. It sets the tone right for this car, because a good Supra is a nice balance of performance and luxury. The dual-spoke factory steering wheel is on a tilt column, and it gives you a clear view to the full gauge package with large speedo and tach. You have all the best features, like power windows, power locks, power steering, cruise control, electric rear defogger, sunroof, and a premium AM/FM/cassette stereo with seven-band equalizer. The cold-blowing air conditioning is even part of an automatic climate control system. It all makes for the ideal driver for more than just the short trips.
The 2.8-liter DOHC inline six is truly a marvelous motor. This fuel-injected, multi-valve powerplant loves to rev, and it makes a wonderful growl at full throttle. You get to make the most out of all this by the total control of the five-speed manual transmission. In fact, the consignor states this has even has some recent investments for a great driver's classic, like new brakes, new exhaust from the cat back, and new BF Goodrich tires. The moment you feel like hitting the open road, the fully independent sports suspension and four-wheel power disc brakes remind you instantly how the nimble Supra has earned its legendary status.
Complete with owner's manual, the new class of vintage cars is all about a nostalgic feeling behind the wheel and offering all the modern comfort you could want. This correctly maintained Supra proves all of this at a very nice price. Call today!!!

About Toyota
Toyota, a name that has become synonymous with reliability and sensibility in the world of automobiles. Let's take a leisurely stroll through the history of this remarkable Japanese marque.Our story begins in the late 1930s when a modest textile machinery company, Toyota Industries, decided to dip its toes into the world of automobiles. It was a humble beginning, but little did they know that they were about to embark on a journey that would change the automotive landscape forever.
Fast forward to 1957, and we have the introduction of the Toyota Crown, a car that signaled Toyota's ambitions to compete on the global stage. It was sensible, well-built, and it set the tone for what Toyota would become known for - reliability.
But if we're talking about Toyota's foray into the world of high-performance sports cars, we can't ignore the Toyota 2000GT. Introduced in 1967, it was a thing of beauty. Sleek, low-slung, and powered by a silky-smooth inline-six engine. It was Japan's answer to the European sports car establishment, and it put Toyota on the map as a builder of more than just sensible family cars.
Then came the Toyota Celica in the 1970s, a sporty compact coupe that captured the hearts of many. It was affordable, fun to drive, and it helped establish Toyota's reputation for building cars that were both practical and enjoyable.
But if we're talking about Japanese sports cars that made a statement, the Toyota Supra deserves a special mention. First introduced in 1978, it became a legend in its own right. With its powerful inline-six engines and rear-wheel drive, it was a force to be reckoned with on both the street and the track. The Supra is a car that enthusiasts still drool over, even today.
And then, there's the Land Cruiser. It's not just an off-roader; it's an off-roader that can do anything a Land Rover used to do, only better. Introduced in the 1950s, it quickly gained a reputation for being virtually indestructible. Whether it's crossing deserts, jungles, or frozen tundras, the Land Cruiser can handle it with ease.
But perhaps Toyota's most significant achievement is its commitment to reliability and sensibility. They didn't just build cars; they built cars that people could depend on day in and day out. It's no surprise that you see Toyota's on the streets of every corner of the world, from Tokyo to Timbuktu.
So, there you have it, the history of Toyota, a company that started humbly but grew to become a global giant in the automotive industry. They've given us reliable, sensible cars, but they've also shown that they can build high-performance legends and off-roaders that conquer the toughest terrain. Toyota is a brand that proves you can have your sensible cake and eat it with a sprinkle of excitement on top.
