God help me, I WANT THIS CAR

[Rabbit16v@attbi.com (Rabbit16v)]

So what year is it then?  I know they didn't come with manual transmissions
on the early Supras, I mean I KNOW they didn't!!!  But I also realize that
they changed that fairly quickly because with the Auto, they weren't all
that fast, even the twin turbo version.  Again, I know this because I worked
at the dealership when they first came out AND test drove all of the new
cars that came to the dealership (PDI tech).  They might have had manual
transmissions in other states (doubtful) but they didn't here in the NW and
we have very liberal state governments here!!
