Message : A friend of mine just bought a '94 Supra Turbo for $27K...had adjustable boost and fuel controllers, downpipe, test pipe, and muffler. Nice wheels, new tires, original paint and interior. A nice car, overall, with just under 100K miles.
: He paid $27K.
: I found a '91 TTZ with 60K miles, 60K service already done, beautiful original paint and interior, asking price was $14.5K.
: What gives? I like the TTZ better myself...
: Jeff

It's the Fast and the Furious baby!

Damn kids see the car in the movies and it goes up in value. Well, that's not the only reason. They just didn't produce that many late generation Supras compared to the huge amounts of Z32s. The T-Top NA Z32 is becoming a New Jersey standard issue like the 1980's Camaro now. Hehehe, maybe not... You just don't see that many last gen Supras on the road. I can think of one NA Supra that lives by me. I see one once in awhile on the road. I like them, I think they look cool.

Remember that Toyota put out the Supra after the 300ZX in the early 90's. It was a response to the huge success of the Z. They used a inline 6 (like the Skyline) with bigger injectors (555CC) on the TT. The car is a fuggin' beast. Bolt on upgrades are numerous and the car is very easy and cheap to mod to 500HP.
