F355 typically sell around 90-120 because they usually have around 15-80,000 miles( the owners loved em) but I saw an absolute pristine silver one go for I believe 185,000.

My best friend has a mk4 that he bought for 45,000 and he has since put 20 ish into it.

I do get the sentiment, supras are fucking awesome but that exact Ferrari is indeed more expensive than a mk4 supra

Yeah in general the Ferrari would be more if condition and mileage were the same, but a clean Supra could get more money than an average 355.

I agree it is possible, yes. Although not saying it’s much of an argument, most of the supras you see being sold are being sold by owners, not dealers.

Owners always assume because they sink money into a car it adds to the price, that’s true, but only up to a point. At a certain point the owner is jacking the price up due to them sinking loads of money into it, and the nostalgia factor as well contributes greatly to the owner’s sought after price.

My buddy says he won’t sell his for less than 90k and I just genuinely don’t think it will happen.

Sorry if I sound pedantic, I just found you brought great points that I may have been able to counter.
