Want a Toyota that costs more than a C8 Corvette Z06? Meet the GR Supra A90 Final Edition
Toyota. The mere mention of the brand elicits images of sensible, indestructible vehicles. However, for devotees of performance, the name means one thing more so than anything else: the Supra. Unfortunately for the most faithful of Supra super enthusiasts, the A90 is coming to a close. But it won’t leave without a tribute model, the A90 Final Edition. That is unless you’re a buyer in America with a budget south of a Chevrolet Corvette Z06.
As Toyota bids farewell to the GR Supra, die-hard collectors can get the last one for $155,000. In France.
Aside from the onslaught of BMW jokes, the Toyota GR Supra accomplished quite a bit in its six model year-tenure. For starters, it brought back the legendary JDM name synonymous with one of car enthusiasts’ very favorite sports car models. It also challenged some of the quickest, sharpest sports cars on the market at the time, like the Ford Mustang Mach 1 and the reimagined Nissan Z.
Sorry, superfans. Things are winding down for the GR Supra, and Toyota will kill the growly sports car coupe after the 2025 model year. Before it does so, the automaking titan will sell a small number of its A90 GR Supra sports cars in a Final Edition. Before you think of slightly pricier models like Dodge’s sendoff for the Challenger and Charger with the Last Call models, the GR Supra A90 Final Edition cars are seriously expensive.
How expensive? Toyota says it will split the swan song editions between Japan and Europe. With just 300 models allocated for the two continental markets, the brand is set to charge a premium for the bow-out GR Supra. In Japan, the 429-horsepower GR Supra A90 Final Edition will demand 15 million yen, which shakes out to a little over $100,000.
However, the price gets dangerously close to €144,000 in some European markets. That’s an eye-watering $155,000 or so in American dollars. It’s also more than twice as much as the GR Supra 3.0 Premium and its 386-horsepower turbocharged 3.0L inline-six.
Never fear, the next-gen Supra is on the way
Okay, you can breathe now. We’re going to get a version of the curtains-drawn GR Supra. Car and Driver received word from a company spokesperson that a US-market version of the GR Supra Final Edition was in the works. However, we’ll have to be patient to get the details on that model.
In the meantime, die-hard Supra fans can rest easy knowing that the next-generation model is on the way. However, we may never see another inline-six-powered Supra.
