If you look on ebay or autotrader.com there are some Supras going for as high as 100k, but then there are others that aren't even fetching for 20k, again all depends on the condition, and originality, model, year etc. I just wasn't trying to dog on the GT-R because it's also going to happen to those who paid over the 100k MSRP on a ZR1. true Supras are also somewhat holding their value much better in respect to other cars.
