Today's listing might be the shortest we've ever featured.

We don't care, since this 1985 Toyota Celica Supra P-Type looks so good.

All the owner tells us is that the car has 99,000 miles, it has never been driven in the winter and has no rust, and it's been well cared for.

We can also see that the seller is based near Detroit and asks $21,000 for the car.

Beyond that, you'll have to contact the seller yourself.

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.

I had a white 85 Supra with the blue interior! I just loved that car! If I had the money I’d buy one!

Redbat01 "Has High Price Derailed Your Sports Car Dreams?" People expect so much more of cars today. And so, they have to pay the price. How many of us would be content with a little two seater with a buzzy four-cylinder engine, solid axle rear suspension, rough ride and an ill-fitting convertible top? But that is what a sports car was back in the 1950s and '60s. (I still think Sunbeam Alpines - the ones with the big fins in the back - are the coolest of them all!)
EBFlex No....you can find plenty of used "fun" cars that are very reasonable with low miles.What does give me pause is the outrageous insurance and yearly registration fees. I shouldn't have to pay for a full year of road use when I can't use the car for half the year. Another factor is interest rates. The dolt that runs the fed is keeping them high for purely political reasons. They need to come down ASAP.
1995 SC I actually really like these. I love the Busso V6. And I will continue to admire them in someone else's driveway like all Alfas. I really want a 4c, but I don't quite hate myself enough
1995 SC I actually know a guy with one of these. Coolest Tercel ever. I don't mean anything derogatory by that.
1995 SC A Miata can be had for under 30. GTIs are still reasonable as is the Jetta GLI. GR86 is reasonable. Plenty of choices out there. If you look at things like the Mustang now versus even back in the 90s sure, it costs more, but it's performance envelope is also vastly higher.
