Graham1984 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 From what I remember Jurgen saying a year or two ago, he expects NA manuals to fetch around 6k+ if in alright condition when the US are allowed to import them. If people have a 2000+ car that's a TT6 and in white they're laughing IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a stock white 2002 TT6 RZ for sale in japan last year with very low mileage for circa £35k (IIRC) before import charges etc. The problem is, although it is a drop dead gorgeous car, it would be criminal to start modifying such a rare car. It was only for sale for about a week too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham1984 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Looks nice. I personally and biastly think red is a great colour on a Supra if in good condition. Still think that needs some facelift indicators and the black liquid art badges though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juvett Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I cant find price for this beauty. How much is this? And that red tt auto is a beauty too. The car is in Japan - price on page is in Yen 2 390 000 as base price (~ 15k GBP). May be a stupid question but does anyone know what that thing on the rear bumper in photo 9 is - looks like a big nasty spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LasseV Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 The car is in Japan - price on page is in Yen 2 390 000 as base price (~ 15k GBP). Thanks mate! So import cost is like 7 thousand pounds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juvett Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Thanks mate! So import cost is like 7 thousand pounds? Sorry mate, I don't have clue about that but what they mention is that is the base price. Next to it is - final price but that is blank. I expect there might be some taxes or something on top. Look up Jurgen (JMimports - I think) on here and see if he can help with importing it if you're interested. I see you're in Finland but he might be able to at least give some advice if not more.

Couple of things about it that worry me though are the seats, as you pointed out, and it doesn't have the active spoiler. I thought all rz facelift models had the front spoilers and why on earth would you replace the recaros for those (nice as they are)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 No, the active spoiler was still optional One explanation if that perhaps the low mileage is an indication that the car did lots of small journeys, and the seat bolsters were knackered. I wouldn't let that put me off though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest knebworth01 Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Interesting thread this. People ought to check out howmanyleft.com. There are only about 350 (auto and manual combined) UK supras on the road in the UK, that makes them a bloody rare car. As people have already stated its all about supply and demand. The generation that grew up desiring these cars are now in the position that they can actually buy one. It is a repeat of what has been happening over the last 5 years with 80's motors.

monkey3 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 (edited) Interesting thread this. People ought to check out howmanyleft.com.

The generation that grew up desiring these cars are now in the position that they can actually buy one. It is a repeat of what has been happening over the last 5 years with 80's motors. That site is really interesting. From what I can tell, in q3 2015 there were 1590 Supras registered for tax in the UK (excl. NI) and that includes imports. Of those, apparently, 182 are turbos. And 143 of those are automatic leaving 39 manual turbo Supras registered for road use in the uk!!! Seems a little low to me. Also, in 2015, there were 42 cars imported (registered for the first time in UK). So there's certainly demand out there.

First time ive seen the advert and the reason for sale was the seller was moving to England not ill health ?

np89 Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Well I know Mark personally and the first time he decided to sell he was extremely unwell. His circumstances have changed which includes a move to England. In any case his reason for sale is irrelevant so keep your concerns to yourself.

Why should I keep my concern to myself ? he told me he was selling because he was relocating to the UK not because of ill health hence my comment after reading the advert. If what you say was the case then I have no concern, I didn't know this till you just posted !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
np89 Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Ok good. But having met Mark im sure you would have been assured he is a very genuine guy. Apologies but im very defensive of him. Hes a good friend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st3ven1 Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 No, the active spoiler was still optional All facelift RZ Supras should have an active spoiler, larger brakes, as well as the recaro seats. In the same way that pre-facelift GZ supras all had the active spoiler. So I'd say in this case the active spoiler either been removed or the car is an RZ-S that has had a carbon wheel and recaros fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
