Willing to be that a decent cross section of said active members do not currently, nor never have owned a mk4 supra. LOLIt is quite comical to me how there are a few very active members of supraforums.com that spend a good amount of time commenting on every single MKV-related post on that website with value-adding comments like, "Not a Supra!" They spend a decent amount of their time to go out of their way to do this, and even occasionally come over to this neck of the woods to remind us how much they dislike this car. It is particularly humorous to me because most of these are folks who have never worked at / for / with Toyota, they don't speak Japanese, and yet they hold themselves up as being the gatekeepers of anything "Supra" and credit themselves with the success of the car. In reality, the MKIV was a commercial failure (due to poor marketing, an exchange rate where the yen was stronger than the dollar, people at that time being unwilling to spend the equivalent of $80k today on a Toyota, and a number of other reasons). The only situation in which I could ever see myself being that upset with a car is if I was forced to buy it at gunpoint despite really, really not liking it.

Considering the MKIV production stopped 20 years ago, how else would one buy it other than second or third hand. The damn car is 20-25 years old lmao.
