I know 1997 was the last year in America.
Well it is still raced in same racing series in Japan, so I guess they still sell it there at least?

Like two months ago I saw a perfectly new black Supra. It had no scratchs, like not even dust on it :shock: What an amazing car :!:

Lol, you mean 98? :lol: I think they stopped production all together. People in the U.S. would own one if they still made them.

They stop producing it in 1998. Toyota was planning to release it again in 2003 only to Japan (LM), the only difference from the '98 model is that the new one has only one turbo, producing 280hp. But i'm not sure if they released it.

You sure about the turbo thing????
and the Supra always had "280" hp over there, the law says you can't say anything over 280 hp...at least it did....stupid huh...

Actually the Toyota Supra was sold in America until 1998 only 37 units were produced. The Supra was produced in the Mk. IV body style until last year when Japanese emissions were changed and the Skyline as well as the Japanese produced Rx7(yes they still sold them in Japan) became extinct because of the new laws.
