AutoHunter Spotlight: 1985 Toyota Celica Supra

Not just any Celica

-

Featured on AutoHunter, the online auction platform driven by ClassicCars.com, is this 1985 Toyota Celica Supra “P-Type,” which is the more performance-oriented of the two Supras available that year. It gets its power from a 2.8-liter inline-six paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. Equipment includes a color-keyed body kit, dual rear spoilers, air conditioning, modern touchscreen sound system, power disc brakes, and BFGoodrich tires. Finished in red over two-tone gray cloth interior, this Celica Supra is offered with a clear title.

This Toyota has been California-owned until 2021. Sometime during prior ownership, the red exterior was resprayed. As a Performance-type Celica Supra, this vehicle features fiberglass fender flares, though the aero kit is a period aftermarket item. Other features include black pinstriping, body side moldings, upper and lower hatch-mounted spoilers, and twin exhaust tips.

Aluminum 14-inch split-spoke wheels are wrapped in 225/60 BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.

The cabin is furnished with two-tone gray cloth interior with high-back bucket seats up front and two-tone gray cloth two-passenger seating in the rear. Features include power windows, power steering with leather-wrapped steering wheel, cruise control, air conditioning, and touchscreen audio system with back-up camera.

Instrumentation includes a 130-mph speedometer, 8,000-rpm tachometer, and gauges for the coolant temperature, oil pressure, fuel level, and voltage. The six-digit mechanical odometer reads 117,779 miles, which is in line with the CARFAX report.

The 5M-GE 2.8-liter DOHC inline-six was rated at 161 horsepower and 169 lb-ft of torque. Power is channeled to the rear wheels via a console-shifted four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.

Braking is handled by power-assisted four-wheel discs.

The auction for this 1985 Toyota Celica Supra “P-type” ends Thursday, February 22, 2024 at 12:00 p.m. (MST)

Lead Writer Diego Rosenberg is a native of Wilmington, Delaware and Princeton, New Jersey, giving him plenty of exposure to the charms of Carlisle and Englishtown. Though his first love is Citroen, he fell for muscle cars after being seduced by 1950s finned flyers—in fact, he’s written two books on American muscle. But please don’t think there is a strong American bias because foreign weirdness is never far from his heart. With a penchant for underground music from the 1960-70s, Diego and his family reside in the Southwest.
