Used Car of the Day: 1982 Toyota Celica Supra LE
Today we're going back in time with this 1982 Toyota Celica Supra LE.
This one has an automatic transmission and the LE trim is rare. It has a sunroof, leather interior, and electronic dash. There are a 157,000 miles on the clock and the seller says it's in good shape.
The engine is stock and appears to have been well-maintained, with a tune-up done recently and rebuilt brakes. The seller has owned the car since 1983 and has kept it in a garage.
This vehicle has not been wrecked and there is an aftermarket stereo. It sounds like perhaps any buyer might need to replace the tires soon.
There are some issues -- the A/C doesn't blow super cold, the sunroof sticks, the exhaust leaks, and the interior leather has some cracks.
The asking price for this Tennessee-based car is $8,500.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Ooo, my favorite generation of Supra.
Dog slow with the auto. Seats are done. Otherwise looks ok.
