Message	Hindsight is 20/20 but I could have gotten a Supra for what I paid for my Z back in 1994. After investing another $20K in performance upgrades in the car, it appears my Z is worth about $1.00, while the Supras in comparable condition/upgrades are worth $30,000.00 Just a word to those of you thinking of sinking big money into your Z's - in a word - don't do it....
