Guys I need help, opinions, yes or no's

Alright heres whats up,
I am in the process of buying a N/A 5 speed Supra. The car is a 96 with just under 90k miles about 89k and some change. Its clean title is clear, its a one owner and the car looks like it had a good home its whole life and just had a fresh new paint job. (professional one not a 300$ job). Now I already know a ton about Supras, I own a TT 6 speed but suprisingly havnt really driven a N/A around ever...Im sure its still just as amazing as its bigger brother. The car is 15k. Its not really a matter of why or what to expect or the need to know the specs on the car, its just a matter of yes or no magic 8 ball tally up all the answers and go for it.
Ive asked every friend of mine and its always 'dooder its a supra of course' dont ask why I want it I just do.

Just a Yes or no guys plz help.

(sorry to post this here, I just need other outside answers rather than this black magic 8 ball sitting here)

If you can afford it do it. By afford I mean the money you pay on it falls off if you like water and no loans are taken out.

Then you could rebuild the motor and turn it into a TT and sell it for mad bank and you could keep it as a project supra you turn into a tire shredding fire breathing monster.


Or you could take that money stick it into an investment fund and let is sit for 35 years......

LOL The logical thing to do would be to invest but idk its just one of those things where you cant resist. Im looking to do small things here and there for fun and thats why I want it. Decisons decisions. Daveh at boostwerx told me he could set me up with a nice Turbo kit for 4k and I know where I could find a JDM 2jzgte for 2k.
Maybe Ill take your advice and put it on hold and be smart.

Going with NA-T vs GTE is a toughie... but if you're buying it to look for a good resale value down the road, then i would go with the GTE, unfortunately you'd also have to go with the 6speed which also costs a fortune!
coming for a previous IS owner so

Just buy it for what it is. You already have (or had) a turbo. The NA is a great all purpose everyday driver and the price is good.

Decided to slide on the purchase, have to be careful when buying on impulse especially with a car!
LOL thanks guys I feel supraless but also relieved of spending more money!
