The Appeal
The Supra's reputation is a reputation well-earned. While it was never quite a high-octane rocket, what the Supra did well was providing just about everything else. A tight-handling yet surprisingly leisurely grand tourer, with top-notch Japanese mechanics and, of course, vapourwave styling that commanded attention. Who could ignore that sort of combination?
The movie industry certainly couldn't. But you probably already knew that.
The A70 Supra Turbo was a superb progression, and this 1990 example is a great ambassador for that inimitable era. With a mere 27,293 miles on the clock - proven by its service history - this car has been meticulously maintained and dry stored by both the previous and the current keeper. As interest in Japanese classics continues to rise, this Supra offers a simply superb opportunity to take on one of the most treasured Japanese classics out there.
