steve.m Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Hey folks. First off, I’m not selling the car... yet! If I had my way I would keep it forever. This is just an exercise. What I am after from you kind people is general honest opinions on what the car is worth. Now I know it’s only worth what someone will pay and not at all what it should be worth but I’m just after some views on its sale value. Please bear in mind the car has quite a few bespoke, desirable and discontinued parts. Full Current spec: 1995 Toyota Supra RZ 3.1 Litre Big Twin Turbo 6 Speed Manual Originally Built by Front Row Japan as their top speed demo car.

It was converted at 72'000 Km (45'000 Miles) and now reads 73'439 so it's only covered 1500 miles since being converted. The car also has some Japanese paperwork history if you can read Japanese. Now, in the cars current condition it could do with a little paint work to make it perfect, this includes a small ding and scratch on the bonnet, rear quarter panels marked from spat removal and the spoiler needs a repaint due to a couple of marks. With me being a bit of a perfectionist, there is a couple of other little marks but nothing major. This is all next on my list to do when funds allow. Other than the above, the car is in superb condition and very well looked after. Most of you know the car but for those that don't, its history has been fully documented since it came over from Japan here: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthr...e-Wangan-Supra Here is a few current pics but there are loads of pics in my thread linked above and in my garage.

JamieP Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 The best supra in the club at present IMO, with the paint work sorted start at £25k I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 £20k I'd say. Cars just aren't selling for £'s anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 As much as I hate to say it, you wouldn't get what it's worth. If this was to go, I fear it would have to join the Black Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 id say 28K. At the end of the day, if someone really wants that car theyll pay you what you want for it.. its not like theres loads of them out there, its 1 of a kind and thats why it will bring decent money if you ask me.

If this was to go, I fear it would have to join the Black Beast History has shown that unless you find the right buyer and quickly, breaking is the only option if you want your money back. It brings tears to my eyes when I think of some of the cars that have been broken. I would say about £20K but that is probably an insult to the quality of the car IMO. H.

mplavery Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 25k-28k IMO Stunning Supra mate ... Keep it ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supra Gaz Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Best car here, 25k I think, minimum of 22 for a quick sale. Please don't do it, I would want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littler Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 As a lot have said above it's what someone will pay, with the paint work done I'd say it's worth between £25-£28k Now weather you get that is the difficult question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I would buy it for £25k without a doubt, such an awesome car and a real credit to the club. I would keep it forever if it was mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I would say £22k to sell it, £25k asking price... Lots of people will comment and say they would pay £xxx amount all day long, but they dont have that amount of disposable money to buy a car, and I bet they wouldn't buy it if they were actually in a position to afford it. As said in previous threads there must be a handfull of people in the country with £25k+ that are actually looking for a top end Supra, most will be attracted by other marques.

steve.m Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks for your opinions and kind comments about the car guys. I hear what your saying about breaking but I don't know if I could bring myself to do it, It's also a lot of hassle. The parts section has been flooded with cars breaking in previous months and even some parts are struggling to sell. I was also of the opinion of £25k-£30k but would be prepared to wait for a sale. Less for a quicker sale. Nobody ever expects to get their money back when modifying cars and I certainly wont, I've spent a bloody fortune on this car.

I hope you don't sell as once the paint is done it will be perfect, it has a mental amount of power but because of it being delivered progressively makes it a much better/usable drive, I think you sold it to me when we were talking at Abbey as it goes so well and is setup just right lol!

tooquicktostop Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Its a great car with a fortune spent in getting it to what is a very desirable and to some degree a "vanilla" stock looking car, by that I mean no lairy kit, crazy undrivable clutch etc, its a proper Supra I would have thought it would be worth 25K as a start price and get it advertised in Eurpoe as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thetrashcanman Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 OMG, I must find the money to buy this car! Shame I don't have it at the moment. Would agree 25-28k for such an awesome car mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) 28K easy. I would put mine up for the same when its fully complete Edited March 24, 2013 by Rob_Mitchell (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
