Steve Posted August 23, 2003 Author Share Posted August 23, 2003 yep.. has velour seats.. this is popular in japan due to their climate.. i did want leather.. but to get all the things i wanted was hard remember.. this car is not made for the UK.. so we have to import the car over. first off she is a very rare 5 speed manual.. i chose this because of re-sale value later on She is a 2.5 Twin Turbo with the 1JZ-GTE engine... She has a holographic digital dash with onboard computer after reviewing this car from many owners then are getting some very good performance specs from this engine Book power output 280 BHP 363Nm (at 4800 rpm) Torque. 0 to 60 mph 5.8 seconds 0 to 100mph in Circa 14 seconds and top speed of 170 mph. This is specs for the auto box.. I find the manual box really nice!!!! I took her out on some windy country roads last night (in the uk we have some very small windy roads!!) aand she handled like a dream! the power was sooo sweet... i could not stop smiling! the price you ask.. well i paid £4895 which is about $7000 oh yeah.. 60,000 kilometers on the clock.. which is about 36,000 miles! and she is a 92 model.. yes you read correctly 92!

SPORTcoupe300 Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 I really wonder about those people that drive 36,000 miles in 11 years. Don't you people get out of the house!? EVER!!???
