The roots of the Supra are more pedestrian.
I know, a friend had one in high school. But the only reason anyone gives a damn about the Supra, and why Toyota is dusting off the name, is the ‘90s twin turbo monsters. Not coincidentally at a time when prices for the ‘90s turbo cars are soaring and when teens of the ‘90s are hitting their peak earning years.

This reminds me of Acura and the new NSX. They put the name on a car that really doesn’t have anything in common with the spirit of the original and nobody is buying them.
