Despite this, it&#8217;s a killer car, and the fact that people are removing the BMW engine and putting in the 2jZ straight-six engine is amazing and hilarious. It&#8217;s a clear indicator of how important the Supra has become, and we want to be a part of that rich legacy if only peripherally. <strong>$500 is yours for the taking.
