Question Camry TRD to Mk V Supra 3.0L
Hey everyone, I'm a longtime Camry owner (04 XLE, 15 XSE, 22 TRD) and I'm strongly considering trading in my Camry TRD for a 3.0L Supra.
I love my TRD and its 2GR V6, but I've become addicted to chasing horsepower and the extremely limited performance mod options has caused me to hit a roadblock. Having a "sports" sedan has been great but the hunger for a true sports car has been gnawing at me for months now, and I figured now would be the time to make the jump, being single in my 30s with no kids and whatnot.
I rarely have more than one passenger in my car and I don't travel, so the reduction in seats and cargo capacity won't change much. My monthly payment will nearly double of course, but I've been comfortably making extra large payments on my Camry loan since I got it early last year so I think I could swing it without issue. I owe $23k on my Camry and KBB says I could conceivably get $25k for it (albeit that's optimistic). I also have thousands of dollars worth of performance and cosmetic shit (D3 tuner, CAI, carbon fiber hood, headlights, taillights, etc.) I could sell to use as a down payment.
Basically, I had two questions:
1) Has anyone else made the same V6 Camry-to-3.0L Supra jump, and do you regret/miss anything?
2) I found a used 2021 Supra 3.0 Premium for $52k with 32k miles. Autotrader says it's a "great" price but I wanted the opinion of folks with expertise. Is it worth pursuing?
