Message The market drives prices, and the market wants Supras. The Supra is every bit as good as the Z, but it's more powerful stock, and can be modded much easier and to higher power levels.

It's the same perception issue I get with my 96TT; even if you put aside the stupid myth of the "20 hp loss," nobody would want it because it's "hard" to modify (which isn't even true, BTW). Consequently, I'd be LUCKY to get $20k for my pristine 10k mile TT from anyone on this web site. Consider: if people on this forum--Z enthusiasts--don't even think their cars are worth anything special, why should the general public? And so, the Supra wins and we lose.

I think it'll be a LONG time before Z32 prices ever go up, if at all. Maybe the occasional example might, but definitely not the car as a whole.
