Yeah but what a investment! Buy the thing in 93 for 45k and sell it in 05 for 250k And people say cars only go down in value

that'd be hard to have a supra lying around and not driving it for 13 years

I see alot of things wrong here:

$250,000 = Maybe it should have been $25k
Yellow 2-door Coupe = the MKIV Supra never came in Yellow from the factory.
20 miles = 13 year old car and only 20 miles. That's 13 year old fuel in the tank?
3.0L V6. = 2JZ-GE or GTE 3.0L I-6 re-incarnated into a V6, insane!

Wow so thats what happened to one of a few PPG Pace Cars that Toyota had for the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach CART races...and other Toyota events. Here's a pic from Mike Kilty's collection from the Toyota Vintage Museum back in 2001 after the 1st ever Carson Meet. This is a genuine PPG Paint job on that car being sold. And yes it was gutted out in the interior with a rollcage and all the safety equipment i.e. Whelen strobes, fuel cell and etc.

Well now the 250g tag makes some more sense. This is a true collector's item

Wow, that's amazing... That is a true collector's item. On eBay last year I saw a 93 RX-7 turbo with 13 miles on it go for $50k+... all original, never titled
