Browsing eBay and I see that unmolested 6 speed MkIV supras go for around 50k. 2009 GTRs can be had for 60k. So in a few more years they might be the same price.
I've always had a love for the 90's high performance Jap cars. 300ZX, RX7, 3000GT, NSX but IMO the Supra with dat 2JZ was supreme. Even till this day I'm still impressed at how over-engineered the car was whenever I read about them.
For whatever reason the GTR didn't float my boat when it first came out but over the years the aftermarket has EXPLODED on these cars. I love that you can have a 9 sec GTR on street tires that doesn't have any compromises (or so I'm led to believe). With supras, I feel like the really fast ones get a big laggy single turbo, TH400 tranny + high stall and worst of all that loud ass annoying anti lag system! All of that ruins the car for what it was supposed to be IMO.
So what do y'all think, which would you rather own?
