This is it. This is the Supra I've always dreamt of owning.

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1998-toyota-supra-21/

Twin turbo.

Six speed manual.

Imperial Jade Mica.

Beige leather seats.

Targa top.

Factory polished rims.

All those other bits.

I don't even want to begin to hazard a guess at how much this Toyota is going to sell for.

[smobgirl]

$50k.

[ZHP Sparky - the 5th]

Wow, within just the past 45 mins the bids have gone up from $19k to $60k...and there's 7 days left. Beautiful car...is that hood scoop some kind of euro option that existed, or by "euro style" is that just something they made up to make it sound classier than it actually is??? Beautiful car regardless.

Edit...correction, it's at $70k now

[Highlander]

@frinesi2 I’m guessing $150-200k and good for them, I guess.

[sony1492]

@frinesi2 You can still pick up a solid sc300-400 and live adjacent to the dream.

[frinesi2]

Man, if only I could convert my desire for this car in to cold hard CASH ...

... who am I kidding I still couldn't keep up with these rich-ass jabronies -_-

[BaconSandwich]

@frinesi2 Unrelated: your profile picture - is that a recumbent trike?

[frinesi2]

@baconsandwich Sort of. Bit of a write-up in the comments here:

I should probably write a proper article.

[ClassicDatsunDebate]

@frinesi2 $109,499, Bob. Make that $139,499

[VincentMalamute]

That's a JC Whitney hood scoop attached with double sided tape, right?

[frinesi2]

@vincentmalamute Toyota was slap-happy with the port-added stick-ons in the late 90s.

[MM54]

I have about half a pint of imperial jade mica paint left from replacing the bumper on my 4runner if you need to touch it up after buying this one

[VincentMalamute]

@frinesi2 That's stock?! I don't remember those. I thought Toyota usually had more taste.

I guess they put hood scoops on some of their pickups but this one looks stuck on.

[frinesi2]

@mm54 I wonder how that would look on a Kawasaki Bayou 250 ...

I could polish the rims and reupholster the seat with some beige marine grade vinyl ...

[CivicWagonEngineer]

Looks great. Green is always the best choice

[ClassicDatsunDebate]

Obligatory.....

[BaconSandwich]

@frinesi2 Yes please!

I've been thinking about making my own recumbent trike.

More than you can afford, pal.

[spacekraken]

I wonder if this one clears 200K. After the 30K element (that had plenty of miles on it) I'm convinced BAT is crazy.

[Nauraushaun]

@zhp-sparky-the-5th I thought the scoops were only on US cars

[ibRAD]

@spacekraken So what is the secret and why aren't we all selling our rides on bat?

[TexturedSoyProtein]

One of my neighbors has an identical car.

[Chariotoflove]

@frinesi2 Oh, I quite like that.

But being as it’s on BAT, it will go for far too much.

I love those cars, and they tend to have the correct transmission instead.

Wait. WHAT?
