* Do these cars handle well? Or would I have to perform a fair few suspension mods to bring it in line with the MX6?
* How much do you guys pay to insure one of these (I'm 26) and who through?
* What is the fuel usage like? How many km per litre? I get around 8.5km per litre around down, and 11-12km per litre on the freeway.
* How reliable are these cars? Expensive to fix also?
* And how much would I be looking at for a Grande with a 1JZ conversion done?
I'm hoping to just swap my MX6 for one, or at least with minimal price difference. This will be a daily driver so I don't want something that breaks all the time.
* How quick are they 'stock' with the 1JZ? 13.8?

* Stock they are a boat, but with some springs and shocks they aren't to bad. Set of JZX81 coilovers would be the bomb.
* Don't know, but modified turbo cars aren't cheap
* At a guess it would be a bit worse than that, but you don't buy a performance motor for the fuel economy now do we?
* Very reliable with a JZ motor in it, but when something goes wrong, its usually quite expensive.
* Pricewise about 8-12k, depending on options, wheels, engineered etc
* 13.8 sounds about right for good condition, probably a low 13 with some work.
