Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Just thought i would let you know that supra prices are rising in japan and now we are struggling to find cars for reasonable money.. I cant see TT 6 speeds going for less than £8500 any time soon facelift cars and vvti cars are commanding a good premium now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Might have to wait a while for na values to increase though you have a facelift NA ? more desirable (these also expensive in JP now).. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Maybe Supra prices are on the rise again... Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Seems to be the case everywhere except here in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jurgen-Jm-Imports Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Seems to be the case everywhere except here in the UK. am sure it will change as we have 4-5 customers looking for supras now on our books - all UK guys willing to buy top cars for good money..

JamieP Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 The desirable ones are going up, 5 years ago I bought the the Black beast, 100% stock TT6 with 32,000 miles on the clock for £6750, and I had the choice of a few, try and find a car like that now for under £12k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Good to know I thought that mine was a good price for the spec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Surely as a collective we could push the prices up ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikedjack Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Nice to know, especially for those of us with low milage late spec TT6 VVTi's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Budz86 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Out of interest Jurgen, what sort of cars are you seeing up for sale in JPN? Are they stock, lightly modded or just straight crazy! Which ones seem more popular? I've noticed here that there aren't many stock TT6's about, they all seem to be modified in some way, but most buyers seem to be looking for stock.

Jamesy Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Good to know and so they should be going up. Not much else you can buy for the same money that will compare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Facelift VVTi seem very thin on the ground now. Had a couple of silly offers via pm for ours but I doubt I would let her go, even if I was making money on what I spent three years ago.

Samurai 20V Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I think the numbers are dwindling in JPN now.. When I was there, 3 years ago, the auction used to have 4 pages of cars, about 1.5 years ago that was down to 1 page... I had some friends there about 5 years ago, you could get a single turboed car for about 30% more than a stock car.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rider Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Supras are getting even more rare shame but it's a fact Could possibly be because they aren't making them any more [GRIN][/GRIN] I paid £20k for my '96 import TT6, I think it'll take a while to get back anywhere near to that price again.

How long have you had it, almost every car will go full circle at some point its just a matter of time when ! Do you have any children?

Tayfun.tugra Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Would I be near in saying a tt auto non facelift would be the last tt to find a price rise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 How long have you had it, almost every car will go full circle at some point its just a matter of time when ! Do you have any children? I've owned it since 1998. Thinking of bequeathing it to my grandson rather than my daughters, its more a boys toy after all. So that's going to give me another 20 years, imagine that, 70 and thrashing around in a Supra. By then 70 will be the new 40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
