no a chance in HE11 I would do that!
MAYBE if it was straight across, but not for $3K more!

I owned a Supra and would only own another one if it was not my Daily Driver. With that being said, I also wouldn't want an N/A and I wouldn't trade my Evo + cash for anything other than a 6 Speed TT. You are in a different climate than I am and I don't know about your lifestyle. At the end of the day its your decision, but I'd probably stick with the 8.

Just my opinion but the supra isnt THAT good of a car! It's a good car but not worth a newer evo and more cash. All it has going for it is the COOL factor!

lmao... i know this would've gotten a lil tense... Supra has always been my dream car... ofcoarse not the NA but the 2JZ equipped ones... if it was a straight trade it wouldve been done already... but because it's 3k more on my end im on the fence about it... the supra is worth 14,000 on KBB in good condition as apposed to my evo worth 9,300... I was even more surprised to find out that the 95 2JZ models are still worth 24,000 dollars... so u would see why i would have to throw in the extra cash if the trade were to go through...

I agree with if it was a 2JZTT Supra then you would have to come up with some $$$, but with it being just a normal supra then I stand but my previous post "all it has going for it is the cool factor". but if it's your dream car then your the only one who can say if it's worth it or not. as for me I would say no and I think you will be very disappointed in the non-TT model.

Wouldn't trade for a N/A...maybe 6sp TT, but definitely not the N/A

Don't do it. don't settle for a trade + cash unless its really your dream car and model. seems as though you'd prefer the TT, then wait for it.

lol... my best friend just traded his rsx for a s2k (his dream car/straight trade)... when i asked him about the trade he was all about it until he found out that i had to drop the 3k on top... so it seems that no one agree's that it would be smart to trade for a NA Supra plus money... He also stated that i could put the money into my evo and bump up the power a bit... So i just might do that...

One of my good friends traded his 07 rsx-s for an ap1 s2k. and crashed it a week later in the rain. Then he got another one. He always said he wishs he kept the rsx.

To OP keep your car man, this is really ultimately an impulse decision.
