Default Supra SZ

Ok I've decided to get the Supra SZ. Anything I should be checking when I go to buy except the obvious checks? ie mayonaize in the water, blue smoke, vin plates and aligning panels. Are there any known faults or problems I should be looking for? How many miles are the engines good for?
Thanks

Make sure its genuine, as when my brother was looking for his TT Supra, there where several which had I.D swaps!
Avoid dodgy import sellers like bird flu!

Adrian flux was OK for insurance on mine that I had before my Scoob. Cars are pretty bullet proof and sound very nice with a decent exhaust.

If I never had kids, I would get another supra, although probably the TT for the extra power.

Go onto mkivsupra, there is an insurance company called Sky that do deals for supra owners.

There are guys on that site who are only 20 / 21, that seem to have accquired reasonable rates / insurance for Mkiv tt.

Look and you will find my young friend :-).

the tt was cheap for me as it is a uk car, the imports are £300 more, but my budget won't stretch to a tt unfortunately
