Not sure about how much to sell for, but I'd go for either a stock Supra TT or a stock Lexus IS300. Either way, you get an insanely awesome car. I wouldn't want one that's real modified, because then you know it's most likely been driven hard. wink.gif

I'm with coomer, i'd pick the IS300, don't know why I just love that car. I am not a big fan of Nissan, could be cause the dealer up here are crooks.

I personally am not a big fan of the G35...I mean, I really like the car, but given the chance at a twin turbo Supra or an IS300, I'd definitely go with the Toyota. I like the way they look more than the G35 and they're more rare, at least around here, and I just have heard nothing but good things about the IS300 and the Supra, though I've heard very few bad things about the G35 as well. I think it's more personal opinion than anything else. No matter what you do, I think you'll be very happy. wink.gif

check out the blue book vaule for you celica and ask for that..

and i would go for the IS300 because it's a newer car and every fun to drive from what i hear. But then again if you can find a supra in great shape go for that.. as for the G35 i don't know to much about that car.. all i know is that i got my ass handed to me by one on the highway this past weekend..

I would look at the final result of what you want out of your next car... you seem to be leaning towards the g35.. personally I dont like em but that just my opinion...

If you want to modify the car then figure out what a basic plan would be for each of the cars.. then calculate what it would cost to get your there.. keep in mind avaliblity of parts, how reliable mods are.. etc. I personally would take the supra out of those three.. not because of how it looks or how fast it is.. but because there are alot of parts out there for it and alot of people that have modified theirs and that equals alot of info for them.

but as always to each there own so diffently go with what you want wink.gif

I would pick the supra, then g35 and finally is300. I don't think the supra needs any explanation but the g35 is a sick car in my mind. plenty of power, rediculously good looks and its basically a skyline (!)

if you are looking to get something new from factory, nice warranty, all the good stuff that comes from buying off the lot, go for the G35 for sure. but if you wanna venture into the used car market again, go supra smile.gif

IMO you could would get 4ish for it if it didnt have a kit. maybe 4500 is reasonable with the kit (you dont get out how much you put in unfortunatly) probably 5000-5250 if you keep the system in it. the car looks incredable, but your milage is a killer, most people know that toyotas will last forever, but their resale value after hitting 120K miles suffers.

In response to the second part of your question,
I would get the Supra.
I have driven both a 2003 is300 5spd and a 1995 Supra single turbo 6spd.
The Supra gets way more looks, has performance that is almost unsurpassable, and it really is an overall gorgeous car.

Although the is300 pretty much has the same engine as the naturally aspired supra, it's still not very fast, i think 0-60 is 6.9 with the 5spd..

If you want practicality go for the lexus
If you want a sportscar go for the supra

the g-35 coupe is awesome, but its a bit too posch and prissy for my liking.
