    I also realize there are lots of original owners out there that are not in our group/not much on the internet. I will update this post, PM me. I've also got a database of Supras under 100K-miles, still formatting.

    I do not feel this is general chat as it is Supra related (doesn't fit into any of the categories except maybe introduce yourself). Please PM me with updates (mileage desired too)

    Matt, look again (you are in the list, look at the end - you are in the family section). David, you are new here but I thought I had you listed, oops. I posted since we had so many under 100K in the past week. I decided to separate out the original owners. Every time I post something like this I get a few new folks.

    Next up my under 150Kms list (100 k Miles)

    Very nice idea Rich! A mod should sticky this.

    On the SDR, it's actually back in my parents name to escape emission testing.

    I purchased my Dark Blue Metallic P-type 5-speed new off the lot (Garden Grove Toyota, CA) in July of '85 (for ~$17.5K) after we'd just won a big contract - didn't test drive it. It's been mine since - except for a couple months in the junkyard while I was haggling the settlement after my son totalled it after his PROM (no injuries & he was alone) - I'm hard-pressed to see evidence of repair and it's still clean and runs great so I'm very glad I salvaged it and won't sell it. Keep it OEM, except for window tint, amsoil air filter, tighter shifter, plus suspension mods (OEM springs w/ struts/shocks, sway & strut bars).
