MK4 Toyota Supra

Only a few months away from MK4's being legal to bring from Japan to Canada.
I'm in a way very excited to see these out on our street's, although I'm guessing they will be pretty commonly seen after awhile.
Anyone know of someone getting one or getting one themselves?

know someone in calgary who is getting on.

How much is he going to have to drop to get one?

ummm i forget how much but hes getting the turboed one soo like 24,000?

Prices will range on who you buy from and the quality of the car. I expect to see a few kicking around but same token how many Fd's have been imported?

Anyway the supras will probably be a hotter commodity.

i highly doubt you will see any if not few imported ones in sask.
a shitty non turbo is going to cost you upwards of 15g
turbos are going for over 20+

There is alot of speculation on the RHD ban, is there anything for sure or is it all just back yard blabber?

There will be no RHD ban. There are many other cars around that are RHD and aren't Japanese or owned by young people. The only thing in question is the 15 year rule.

That is refreshing to hear, RHD or not when someoen get's behind the wheel and is going to drive like a nutjob there will be procusions. Wouldn't be fair that RHD cars are banned just cause in a few cases people were not using their brain and being safe.

that was wayyy over your head.

its the 15 year rule that theyre considering changing, not RHD bans..

roflawl

HAHA! K i guess i quickly read the two sentences and the 3rd not so much.

now go say that to one of my teachers, god he doesnt stop on why there wont be a ban. lol ive tried saying to him there wont be and he just goes on for bout 10-20 mins bout why he thinks there will be one.

who is your teacher?

Check out 15years.ca its probably your best bet to learn about the whole fiasco.

They have done a lot to in favor of the RHD/15 year issue.

mr mauffenbier or however you spell it.

Ah i see, then that mean's the vehicles that are already in Canada will be the last of the breed till they are legal to bring over 10 years from now? Wouldn't the market for the vehicles here already skyrocket seeing as all the sudden they are considered rare?

That is another loaded question.... That's IF they change it, and maybe a few would increase in value but some people still have stigmas about these cars.

Id just get a supra from the states

You got deep pockets?

You can still get a decent one for under 30g. Youre gonna pay at least 20 from japan anyway.

Sounds like deep pockets. lol.

10 Grand is still quite a bit of money.

haha yeah just cause you may have 20gs doesnt mean you have 10 more lying around.

yah you could use that 10 g's to pick up a sweet winter beater so you have a car to drive in the winter when you park the supra. Play your cards right and the 30 could almost get two sweet cars from the U.S instead of one for 30 G's ex: 350z and an S200.

I think the problem they are having with poeple in RHD cars is head on collisions on the highway... they have to peak out that much further when passing in a 2-lane and it's caused alot of headons.
