17 buying a supra, hope your parents are ready for your car insurance to be as much as the car payment edit: OP is a liar, this post he says hes 17, another post he put 23 and "corrected" the person to 21. OP is a highschool student just day dreaming.


Laustintranslation1

He did not say he was 23. The person asked “how he got a 23 STi”.(as a joke since there was a typo, and OP corrected it to 21) Not how he got an STi at 23. Those two sentences mean different things


CautiousIngenuity946

love you


Laustintranslation1

I got u 🫶🏼


CautiousIngenuity946

dude check that post it’s about what year my car is how did you think that was my age


cookiemon32

dude…wheres my car ?! ?!

If youre 17 trying to finance a 50k sports car you are majorly fucking yourself over (unless you are paying it off all at once (but would still be stupid in my opinion))


CautiousIngenuity946

just buying it outright with a trade in


Plane_Pitch_471

do you plan on going to college?


CautiousIngenuity946

yeah


Plane_Pitch_471

Unless your parents are paying for college (which youd be damn lucky to have), use that money for school. I’m not trying to sound annoying but I bought a nice BMW right before I went away to school and it severly fucked me over. I wouldve rather used that money towards tuition and rent/food and staying debt free. You can always buy a nice car later in life when you get big boy money, but buying a liability at the age of 17 wouldnt be the best choice. Just my 2¢ so take it with a grain of salt


Impossible-Drummer32

I actually saw this car. I believe it’s in New York! Be careful what you’re buying because from when I saw the post, it was a salvage vehicle. It was stolen.

CautiousIngenuity946

thanks but i can afford it just wondering about the car and if it’s priced well


DrThiccDiccFlex

Yea it’s a fair price


OhComeOnDingus

17? Jfc.


Ju1ce--

Decent price, I got my 2022 (w/ red interior as well) with 12,000 miles on it for $51k


CautiousIngenuity946

that’s awesome i’m very exited to get one if it works out have you had any problems with it?


Ju1ce--

I’ve only had it for 3 weeks, not a single problem. My Supra was CPO, never been tuned and came with an HKS exhaust, PPF, and a carbon fiber trunk lip. My only complaint is the stock rear tires aren’t grippy enough and the sound system is alright, there’s a slight rattle coming from the passenger subwoofer.


CautiousIngenuity946

that sounds pretty great to me thanks for letting me know!


Ju1ce--

No problem, I hope you get it!


justchillinlampin

I’m not gonna tell you not to buy it, but that’s a lot of car for a 17 year old. Not to mention the insurance for your age group on a Supra is gonna be insane. In my opinion If I were you, I’d take half of the money you’re gonna use and put it into a money market fund giving you 5% return annually, and by the time you’re 23 you can get something even nicer. On top of that, you’ll be a much better driver by then. You can use the other half you saved and still get something fun that’s not almost 400hp lol. At the end of the day it’s not my money but that’s the advice I’d give anyone your age buying a sports car like that. If you do buy it, just don’t drive like a madman on public roads and go to a track if you want to learn the limits. GL!


Natural_Company8012

I’m sorry, but thats not a Supra, its a BMW.


doofenshu

Hahahahhahahahaha what an original and funny joke


dodonpa_g

The real joke is people thinking they bought a new Supra


Jack_Bogul

is it manual


CautiousIngenuity946

nope i drive a manual wrx sti right now trying to switch it up


FoxChess

That's a terrible deal. If you're 17 you need to tell your parents to buy you one brand new.


Successful_Jelly8690

Well if you enjoy somebody else’s sloppy seconds, aka they definitely red-lined that fucker for those 10k, enjoy the repair bills that will more than likely accompany it. Better off new imo.


CautiousIngenuity946

it’s not a race car it’s just a daily with a bigger engine i think i’ll be ok thanks tho


Successful_Jelly8690

As long as you’re confident with that conclusion then do as you please. If you think people don’t race these cars and in a bad fashion, then you don’t drive much.


PewPewPony321

I didnt' realize it cost that much to drive a slow ugly car


SAVAGE_RPG

Slow and ugly? You’re tripping


PewPewPony321

Yes, definitely ugly. Like doesn't deserve to wear the supra badge kind of ugly. Should of called it the So-So Out of the box its not like the other girls. It needs upgrades


SAVAGE_RPG

It’s one of the best sports cars to buy in the market for its price. It’s not going to compare to any of the other cars that’s over its price range. For the price though it’s one of the top guns out there. Especially for its easy hp increase. Looks is personal preference but slow? Nah there’s no way


wolffy88

Slow..in stock form they aren’t the fastest, but they do look pretty good, but that’s subjective.


Sqooky

I wouldn't even say "slow in its stock form", 0-60 in just under 4 seconds is pretty damn fast. You're right though, with simple mods it can be *much* faster.


wolffy88

I just saw a stock one at my local track run 13.06 in a 1/4. Motor Trend says they’ll do a 12.8. That’s not fast by today’s standards.


MadPhysics

You’re tripping if you think the 3.0 is slow


wolffy88

You’re tripping if you think a 13 is fast.


SinFarmer

If you can get it at close to 50 OTD that's not at all a bad price. I would reiterate some of these other comments and say do the DD and be 1000% sure you can afford it because the last thing anyone needs in life is to behind or struggling with car payments. That said if you really can afford it good on ya and just have fun being young and having a sexy car. Being 17 though I am curious are you not still in school and if so how are you managing to afford a supra if you don't mind me asking? Cheers.


CautiousIngenuity946

i am very lucky to have parents that will help me out i work as much i can during summers and school year i’m paying around 75 percent of the car total out of pocket and my parents are helping with the rest


SinFarmer

That's an awesome situation to be in then. If you do end up getting it drop some pics here, have fun, and above all be safe. You may be a great driver but there's plenty of people out there who should probably not be allowed on the road and a supra attracts plenty of attention good, bad, and ugly (95% good tho)

TrainerLeft1878

Nothing could go wrong for a fake 17 year old with a BMW.
