But they were already becoming rare to begin with, since they had already been out of production (at least for the U.S. market) for three years by the time the movie came out. Additionally, at the time it wasn't a bunch of kids wanting Supras and actually getting them. Its lifespan was cut short but a lot of people knew how capable the motor was, so the demand would've been there even without the movie. The Supra Turbo was already my dream car when it came out in the early/mid 1990s.

Yay for my insurance going up...
But that's what the FR-S is for, and they'll say it was "practically the same car but less expensive" and think that BRZ owners wasted the money. Problem solved.
