6MT?! Awesome! Too bad its $28k for a 1994, I wouldnt even pay that much for a Supra in that condition.

If the Supra only had 6,500 miles I would buy it for that much, but not a Legend. The Legend does look really clean.

Someone will eventually buy it, but @ $28K, it's gonna take awhile to find the right buyer.

If it was $18K, I'm sure they would find buyer alot easier...

Heck, I bought my CLS 6spd for 29K w/ 35 miles on it

You couldn't afford a supra in that condition. A supra like that would be big $$$$, way more than this Legend. Your talking about a technically brand new car. I doubt it was even registered, since it was used for shows.

F an Impala. That is what my garage is going to have in it when I get old and want a classic.

Absolutely gorgeous!!

BTW. If I was in the market for a new car, I'd be the crazy one to buy that baby. And drive it all the way to Texas.

One of the problems I read about concerning "garage queens" is that you might run into probably with gaskets, seals, etc. since the car has been sitting a long time. Cars like to be driven, they don't like to sit. Rubber parts will age even if the car isn't used. You'll see this alot with older low mileage porsches for example.

If you're going to keep the car as a museum peice, fine, but if you're going to drive it, you better have some money budgeted to deal with issues resulting from long term storage.

Guys, this car was actually sold on Ebay last summer. I don't think the asking price was too unreasonable given this was a 42k car back in 1994. I'm not sure what the reserve was, but it was met.

I thought about that too, but hey, if your paying 30k, let the dealer replace any rotten parts before you buy it.

The only problem is that the rotten parts tend to go only after the car has been properly "exercised" for a bit...

Usually it's not a big deal tho', and if you're spending 30K on a 10 year old car, you usually have the bankroll to deal with it.

This car keeps showing up in my brower for some weird reason

Mileage is a little bit better, so the car has been used, but not used as a daily driver. I like cars that have some mileage, and have been driven as opposed to a garage queen.

a supra in that condition would easily run you 45-50K these days




Legends hold their value awesome, but this is a little rediculous. I could see this car for going for maybe 20K. This was a rare one

The Legend's had two different engines, a TypeI and TypeII. The TypeI is basically the same engine that the first gen TL has, 200 horsepower 3.2L. The TypeII has 230HP 3.2L. I forget which years had which engine...I think the 94 and 95 sedan had TypeII and the 93-95 had the TypeII, but I could be wrong.

Also, that car for sale is really old...like almost a year old. That car was a dream for some of the Legend owners back last spring when the ad went up..

Yeah, I remember this car last summer over on A-TL because someone posted it out of shock. Very nice car, I don't think I would bother spending $28k on a '94 by any means, especially if it's been sitting around for a while. Too much maintenance is probably needed at this point.

That car is a classic, it never gets old, you would be one of the very few with a car that low with miles, and put some mods on it, and man, you would be one of a kind

Would those seats bolt up in a 1st Gen CL? Theyre a little more bolstered than the ones we have. That legend is sick, if I was a collector, I would snatch that thing up.

Thats something I would buy if I had deep pockets and just wanted a nice sunday driver that you never see.

Still not for 28k, I would give maybe around 20k for it though.

Give it time and it will sell for sure
