The Fast & Furious Supra Will Sell For More Than You Can Afford, Pal
The Fast & Furious Supra Will Sell For More Than You Can Afford, Pal-April 2024

Now that the film franchise has gone from that movie that made you do burnouts in the parking lot with your ‘97 Civic EX, to a full-fledged international juggernaut, car collectors will be looking to get a piece of the action. Now is your chance to own the “10 second” Supra that started it all.

The 1993 Toyota Supra stunt-car was custom made for the film and built by Eddie Paul at the The Shark Shop in California. It will be up for bid at the , with an estimate between $150,000 - $200,000.

Like most movie cars, the performance is more impressive on screen than in real life. This Supra has a naturally aspirated (!!!) 2JZ-GE 3.0-liter inline-six motor with 220hp, paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. So if you are looking for the orange monster that could “decimate all” at Race Wars and allow you to shift thirty-seven times, it is going to be a bit of a let down.

What you will get is an iconic car with a lot of show, and not much go. It does have a set of NOS bottles that are not connected to the motor, and comes complete with a body kit, wing, and stickers galore that you would expect from a 90’s tuner car.

Of course you could probably buy a handful of 355 Spyders for the same price, but all this Supra would need is some overnight parts from Japan to transform it into the on-screen legend that had us all get subscriptions to Sport Compact Car magazine.

Update: I'm Still Burning Money
When I I’d just picked it up from having Subaru BRZ/Toyota 86 front and rear subframes grafted into its crumbling body. When the car came back to me in May, the clock started ticking. I had until mid-September to get the engine and transmission mounted in the car, clean...

This Restomod 1956 Hyster Forklift Is Certified Fresh
It’s one thing for you to be forklift certified, but it’s quite another thing for your forklift to be certified badass. Most of the forklifts I’ve used at jobs have been unreliable, smelly monstrosities that have been repaired by . This restomod Hyster is definitely not like that. What’s...

I Ordered A Carbon-Fiber Roof For My Porsche 996 Turbo And I Might Throw Up A Little
I bought maybe the cheapest Porsche 996 Turbo—that’s right, —on the market a year ago, and I’ve mostly been happily stacking miles on the odometer since then. I have been working on making the car my own with a period-correct set of wheels, some extra carbon trim, and a...
