First of all, its an auto b/c my only criteria for the "right" supra was that it had to be turbo and targa, the transmission was of little car to me, it is true, however, that the auto holds boost pressure better between shifts than a manual can.
As for how I got the car... well I decided I wanted one more than 2 years ago and I researched and researched. I looked on auto trader and ebay at least once a week for Supras in the carolinas or at least the south east. I kept searching and searching and the right one came up for sale in NC. It was very rare for any to be sold in the carolinas so it was a bit more than NJ or CA Supras, but I got it anyway. I got it thanks to my dad, he gave both me and my sister a certain budget to use to get a car when were were 16-18. I know that it is not very respectable to get handouts like such, but everything is relative. Anyway, I'm not one of those teenage braggerts that is always saying they got their Supra when they were only 17. This car is not a very practical car for a teenager and/or college student with no job or income, believe me, but don't get me wrong, the Supra is sweet car and I'll never take it for granted. I chose this over many new cars and I'm still happy with my choice, I wouldn't have it any other way (unless I could get a BNR34 Skyline GT-R V-Spec II, hehe) and I plan to keep this as my daily driver through college.
