Still remember watching Barret Jackson and the hosts saying Japanese cars are never really going to go up in value. Boy where they wrong.

wonder why LHD RX-7 and NSX hasn't seen the astronomical prices as much as the Mk IV Supra is enjoying

i mean RX-7 is not known to be ultra-reliable, and i guess NSX didn't really see the Fast and the Furious screen time?

The f&f screen time definitely helped, as well as youtube.

Not that someone buying a low mileage collector car plans on building it into a monster but the supra has become a legend that very few cars ever become.

Only my opinion, but the new "supra" is such a cluster fuck of a fail the value on the mk4 is just gonna inflate even more for years to come, with the lower mileage unmolested examples seeing the biggest rise.

I dont know any other car from the 90's that can still roll into a 1/2 mile event or something and make the UGR gallardo and alpha GTR guys extremely nervous.
The R34 GTR had the potential but since it never made it to north america it never got the same amount of after market support the supra got.
Japanese tuning companies were one thing, but the Americans went crazy with these cars when they got their hands on them, power house racing, titan motorsports, boost logic etc etc.
The TX2K events were actually supra only events until UGR started pumping out TT gallardos and the like to keep up, the event became alot more popular and opened up to every platform.

Ive had multiple mk4's since 2004 and ive personally noticed the car gets alot more attention today than when I had my first one in 2004, nobody unless they were a car guy really knew what it was back then. Now adays it seems like everyone, every age and every demographic knows what it is.

Its never a dull day when i take her out lol.

MK IV Supra has a relative timeless design. The curvy lines flow really well.

Add some modern aftermarket headlights (plenty to choose from, or even just retrofitting OEM ones) and a nice set of wheels, it still looks great.

And if you have the dough to add some body kits (quite a few really sick ones out there) and it's on par if not better looking than modern sport cars. Not to mention the infinite potential on power mods. With a few grands invested, you can have 500+ HP and smoke 99.9% of cars out there.

All this bring us to the question... WTF was Toyota thinking with current gen Supra?!? :fuckthatshit:

even if they kept it looking exactly the same, they could have done a 3jz with direct injecroom and call it a day... but even then some could argue that’s what the n55 is anyways

JSS im surprised your reflection didnt show your shit eating grin

Not even remotely grinning. The attention was fun when i was 19, im 32 now... I don't like getting trapped in a 20 minute conversation and getting asked to open the hood when I'm trying to go about my day so I was waiting inside for those guys to leave. Just thought it made for a funny picture.

What were yah doing at key west? Ordering something fun?
