1985 Toyota Celica Supra

Pros: 1985 Supra: Possibly the top favorite of about seventy cars I have owned.

Cons: They are getting old and hard to find.

The Bottom Line: If you love the sound of a great, great engine, and love to drive, an 85 Supra screamer is very hard to beat, all time. Testosterone required.

Review: I have owned a number of Supras from 1979 up to 1988. The '79 was a great, great, fun car for its time. The 1988 Turbo (A/T) was just a speeding ticket waiting to happen. I could not keep it under 90 on the highway -- if you blink in that car you are ...

Pros: cheap, reliable, fun.

Cons: rust.

The Bottom Line: I would recommend the celica to anyone looking for cheap transportation with some fun, and as a second car or project car as well.

Review: This review is for the 1985 Toyota Celica GT. It has a 22r-e 2.4L 4 cylinder compared to a 5m-ge 2.8L 6 cylinder in the Celica supra, and a solid rear axle, instead of IRS in the Celica supra. Otherwise, the cars are similar. Toyota introduced the ...

Pros: Economical, reliable, fast, fun, luxurious, best car you can find for the price.

Cons: lack of aftermarket parts, prone to rust if not taken care of

The Bottom Line: Simply an amazing car. Very reliable, economical (about 26mpg), fun, sporty and luxurious. In my opinion no car of the 80's is as well rounded as the Supra.

Review: Well when I turned 16 I wanted to find me an affordable car that was sporty and have some guts to it ...

Pros: - reliable - comfortable - 8 way adjustable bucket seats -

Cons: - sun roof leak - oil leaks - one thing fixed...another breaks

The Bottom Line: its a great car to drive. Its rare to find these cars out there and insurance is cheap. Gas is pretty friendly too.

Review: I always loved the look and feel of the MKII supra. I drove my cousins MKII celicasupra and fell in love with it instantly. The handling was designed by lotus with both IFS and IRS giving you great stability through corners. Rack and pinion steering, ...

Pros: Fast, Easy to modify, It looks great even after 24 odd years.

Cons: Some parts difficult to find, Rust on coastal cars,

The Bottom Line: Great car never goes wrong and when it does it really simple to fix. Quick looks great even after 24 odd years.

Review: I Don't know what car the last guy who reviewed drove but it was not a celica supra. I have just purchased a 1983 L-type thats Luxury for those who dont know. it has the standard 5M-GE motor and it is a British to South Africa import and i can tell ...

Pros: Cheap, reliable, comfortable, loads of electric toys. Lots of net based info and help

Cons: RUSTY BACKENDS, TAILGATES and SUNROOFS, no aftermarket panels, lack of tuning parts. Limited tyre choice.

Review: This is a great car from Toyota, far ahead of it's time. I mean what 1980's car can you buy with Air Con and Cruise as standard features? The engines and transmission are silky smooth and eat the miles without a glitch. Auto's are a real pleasure to ...

Pros: Reliability, looks, comfort, performance.

Cons: Rust, abuse from previous owners, lack of upgrading potential.

The Bottom Line: If you can find a rust free specimen, I highly recommend this mild mannered sporty coupe.

Overview

I’ll always have a soft spot in my heart for this car as it was my first...

Pros: A girl told me the car was sexy

Cons: EVERYTHING!

The Bottom Line: Worst car I've ever had. I wouldn't let my worst enemy drive this pile of junk.

Review: Where do I start. First, I bought the car from a dealership for $500. I got taken. It leaked every f ...
