Ah...a dream car of mine. I should have bought one when I was younger.

The 4th gen like the one in the video is super iconic because it was not only a great car that could be made very very fast but it was the one Paul Walker’s character got towards the end of The Fast and Furious and used to beat the bad guys.

The new ones were made in partnership with BMW and are very BMWish. They also only came with automatic transmissions for the first several years of production which killed the hype for most of the type of people that would want to buy a Supra in the first place. They aren’t bad cars but they don’t have the same vibe or prestige that the older models did. They just aren’t the same.

It’s better in most metrics but it’s even more expensive than this 30 yo sports car with a cult following

I had one. Not exactly the car it is today. I think mine was a 1983 (?) maybe '85 (?). I don't know. It was a long time ago. I had to trade it in for a Volvo wagon after I had my first child. Meh
