For some reason I feel like we can almost expect the A80 gen Toyota Supra to be overpriced. Put on a pedestal by JDM fantasies and a generation of Fast & Furious movies, I don’t think you can find one cheaper than 50k, and if it is it has high miles or something is wrong with it.

This example is a 1998 A80 Supra on sale at MDK International here in Southern California (Burbank. For some reason I feel like they are internationally known. I could be wrong). They have some exotics in their inventory, but this si the second most expensive car they have after a 2013 Rolls Ghost. It has the twin turbo I6 and a few HKS mods. From the dealer details:

Per the Carfax, it has a clean title and only 2 previous owners with 39,111 miles on the odo. Their asking price? $94,990 which I feel is out of line but at the same time I don’t but I could be wrong. You can only see the car by appointment only. And if you are thinking of coming in there to try and talk them down to $80k you’re sadly mistaken as they have the bullshit no haggle policy. Is this NP or CP? I vote CP.
