How often do you see other MKVs in the wild?

[decodeddiesel]

I daily drive my car ~60 miles a day and I've only seen 3x other Supras (outside of the track) on the roads in my area in the 3.5 years it's been out in the US. I see far more Porsches, Lamborghinis, and Ferraris than I do Supras in CT.

Is it the same in your area?

Only Mk5s I've seen around me are @GhostSZN and a yellow car owned by an older woman who didn't even acknowledge me sitting at the light next to her ?

I probably see 10 C8 vettes for every Mk5. Maybe more.

I see a good amount of them in the Dallas area. I saw two yellow's and a white one on the way home from work yesterday LOL

Here in kitchener, Ontario (Canada) just one that's parked mostly and that's it. Did see a red one once but never again after and a phantom one. So I've seen about 3 in total in the last 3 years spamming from the greater Toronto area.

Seen about 9 c8s (here and on the highway)

I'm in the middle of no where canada and somehow have seen quite a few. There's about 3-4 black ones, a turbulence grey, a white, a red, and a phantom grey one. This is my city alone. I know my dealer isn't getting this many in. Usually it's the high end used car dealer that keeps bringing them in.

Other than car meets, I think I've seen 3 on the road since I bought my car 2 years ago

I was curious about how popular the Supra is in Colorado. I lived there for almost 20 years.

In Dallas, I probably see one once a month. Rare enough that I have to park next to 'em in a parking lot for a laugh. Much rarer than Vets and Porches of which you see various ages and models daily. But much much more common than the aggregate of lambos, ferrari's, maseratis, and any other exotic (which is saying something because I'm literally down the street from Boardwalk Ferrari and Maserati).

I've only seen a handful since 2020.

Around where I live I have only seen 2 actually driving around 1 of them was out of state driver. The other 2 were sitting in used dealerships.

Man! Everyone here in Dallas! I’ve seen a few in the wild around my area (Preston Hollow) - yellow, red, crazy blue wrap, silver, and then the ones I’ve up with. Much rarer vs Porsches, Bentleys, McClarens. More common than Ferrari or Lambos.

Outside of our weekly hangs? Maybe one or two a week. Atlanta has a decent supra amount, but the community is dogwater. Thankfully I've gathered a few likeminded owners to have weekly drives / dinners with.

Same, but that makes sense since last time I checked, there are at least 6 C8s sold for every Supra. One of the things I love about the Supra is the general exclusivity compared to the mentioned high end cars.

Outside of car meets, they are rare enough around me for me to recognize the same Supras when I see them.

East of England I'd say, to average it out roughly, 1 or 2 a month.

Interesting. That's far more than I see in New England lol. Glad to see the British Sports Car culture is still alive and well.

I regularly see a phantom gray Supra coming the other direction from me on Fridays when I go to get gas.

Every now and then I see another yellow Supra parked at a strip mall, I think the owner works in either a hair salon or a restaurant there.

Outside of those two Supras I do not regularly see ANY Supras around my neck of the woods. I have seen one or two a single time around town over the years, but I never saw them again.
