You would enjoy that car much more than that slow Celica

The supercharger is loud if there is an aftermarket intake on the car. It really wakes up the sound.

You also may want to look at the dash on the passenger side. If it's a real Intimidator edition, there should be a small plate on the dash saying Intimidator.

Is it just the RPM guage thats jumping? Or is the engine actually doing it too?

Coolant leak is probably the intake manifold gasket. When I was looking to buy my 2004 Dale Jr, I could smell coolant and after looking closely, I could see some on top of the intake. I got a little lower price by pointing it out to the owner. I had it repaired after buying the car and by looking at the original gaskets, you could see where it had been leaking. Good luck on your decision.
