Nice to drive? Oh ya... nothing finer, for the money.
Perform well? If it's in good shape, it does ok... parts aren't cheap. Good tires and shocks go a long way toward making anything feel good...
Fuel Economy? Are you talking about a 3.0L 7M? Nothing particularly economical about it. Driven like a grandma, maybe but that's quite the challenge. I couldn't do it. Any Cressida or Supra is better suited as a highway car... not a city car.
Easy Parking? Compared to any small Toyota this car is a boat, a land yacht... it's big and heavy. Take for example parking in a parking lot (side by side). The supra has very long doors, you need space to open the door in order for you to easily maneuvre yourself in or out of the car... no man, in cramped quarters the Supra isn't desirable. Not unless you don't mind getting in and out Dukes of Hazzard style.
Don't know about your part of the world, but looking at used Supra's the interior is often rough looking - the shifter, the steering wheel. Rust in and around the body mouldings...
