Pretty sure it needs a emissions test… It’s 86 and older that doesn’t need one. I thought the same with my 87 supra, but had to get one done… ---

Dunno if this will help with the sale, but I used to have a 98 GTI VR6 and with an intake and exhaust the fuckin thing used to keep up with 350zs and G35s, and the 98s weigh about 2700-2800. The MKII GTIs like this one for sale weight 2200. So basically you’re getting a little rocket with ONE of the best sounding engines ever made (beside many others, DONT HATE) for this price it’s a bargain. ---
