hehe cheers, yeah i had my eye on this for the last 4 weeks actually (before the vp was smashed) and regardless of the vp i probbly woulda still picked it up...

im gonna get me a auto v6 + LPG sometime in the next few months, the supra will never see peak hour traffic, i dont think i could drive it in that traffic,

i picked it up for $2500, well yeah clutch has to be worth tons :P it feels REALLY deep, hydraullic aswell, you'll see me with 1 tanked left leg and a skinny right leg from the clutch...lol
