My Brother & I Just purchased this 89 Comp TS6M with 427 hours on it. Boat was meticulously maintained and we searched for a long time to find the right one!
We grew up on an 88 Comp and we decided while searching for a boat, a comp is truly what we wanted! The sleek euro late 80's design is so classic looking, with it's low stance & sports car feel... ready to drift around any hair-pin...
Anyway...check out a few pics. Found the boat on onlyinboards.com. Im located in downtown Madison wi (born & raised in Brainerd, MN) and the boat was in Salisbury, MO about an 8 hour drive..and after i spoke with the owner, we decided this was the one. When we arrived, we were a little leary, just from the setting, but the owner was just as he sounded, a 3o yr old, down to earth skier who absoutley was in love w/ his Supra and had to sell it due to a recent committment (wife) and an addition to the familty (child)...he bought an 04 Malibu.. didn't seemed too thrilled...?
As we drove away and started on our 8 hr journey back to MadTown, with no trailer lights and a beautiful supra connected to the Clade, all the seller could do was is wave goodbye to his sweetheart, with nothing to show for the 10 yrs of absolute Religous CARE except a 4" by 10" inch certified bank check...WoW did we make it out good on this Deal!!!
We put 5 hours on the boat this weekend!!! cant imagine how this guy managed to keep such low hours on this thing when we have 5 hours before april fools day....
