Exciting news! I received an email about an hour ago saying that they can now order my Supra! I signed the purchase agreement which clearly states that the vehicle will be sold as MSRP.
Only downside is they asked for 2 color choices and there is only one white Supra that I want.
Anyway...
I hope you are right, but is there any indication as to production numbers of the Non-Launch versions?
Scarcity creates demand, which drives appreciation. If these are readily available at every lot at MSRP (talking about the non-launch of course), I don’t see a situation where the pre-owned...
Regarding the above comments ^
All of us are speculating, but that is part of the fun. If anyone is taking a second mortgage or even stretching their budget too thin in hopes that the car will skyrocket, that is prolly a terrible decision....but to each their own.
I typically never buy new...
Spoke to another dealership today out in the sticks of North Dakota. They aren’t taking deposits, but said I was the first person who called regarding on it.
Anyway, they said with Toyota they never know what cars they are getting, even if it is a Camry. He said, “We can request a certain...

My buddy holds a high level position at a dealership, they were told they were getting “...One, possibly two Supras...”
However, that is all he knew...no VINs, no colors, options, and actually...
Did they happen to echo the same info that Gearbanging (post #155) was told regarding allocations later this month and vehicles arriving at the dealership in May??
I haven’t heard a peep from my dealership....was just curious if this info was given to all dealerships or if Gearbanging just...
I was told the same thing buy the salesman at my dealership, he said it was roughly a $10,000 investment per dealer, that wants to sell the Supra.
I don’t think that is much of anything for a dealership to spend in order to sell and service a car for many years....
To be honest, I don’t know...
Dealers aren’t yet aware of the colors/options that they are getting for their launch cars?
Some dealers, mine included, asked for my preference, but it sounds like they won’t have a choice in what car(s) they get at launch.
Unless you are waiting for a non-launch car that will be ordered...
Are there numbers out for production of the non-launch edition?
My dealership couldn’t guarantee a launch version, but said that I will get the one they are receiving.
Just wondering if the non-launch models will depreciate like every new car? Or if they are going to keep production #s lower...
Hi all,
New to the Supra thread, not new to cars. Typically I bought older cars as I love to work on them: H1, S2000, M5, 650i, FBO 335i, a few Land Cruisers, etc...and they have already depreciated.
A buddy of mine, who works at a dealership, let me know he could get me a Supra if I wanted...
Put down a deposit yesterday. Dealer said I am 1 of 1 on their list and they will not be taking additional orders.
A friend of mine holds a high position at the dealership, he said that the Toyota execs just had a meeting and they were allocated 2 cars.
With that being said, the dealership...
