Too add, an auto touring was around 41k. Funny how those are the cheaper ones used. LOL

Oh yea a loaded Toyota Supra was around 50k. Damn!

My 93 R1 sticker says $36,015, but that includes a 2000 additional dealer markup, which I know the original owner didn't pay.
Base price was $32,500.
The R1 package was $1000.
The floor mats were $70.
Shipping was $350.

Oh and here's the kicker...the window sticker says the estimated annual fuel cost is $947.

In 1992, they where AU$73k here. An absolute rip-off......

I read in a USA press release in 1992 they where priced at US$33k but dealer charges & discounts could change that

My base model (midyear 94) was stickered at about $34,000, but the dealer discounted it to about $30,000. I got hosed on my trade-in, however - a 91 300ZX Twin Turbo.

I am a second owner, and the original owner (who is my neighbour) had an original price quotation sheet. 1994 PEP package was $ 49,000 CAD.

I beleive most were between $46,000 and $52,000.

...I found this invoice posted long time ago on a similar thread as this. Check it out below:

By the way, I think the demise of the early-mid 90's import turbo cars was mainly in the price and the introduction of the SUV's which later would be a huge success. Compared to yesteryear now, SUV's today cost as much as these import turbos back in the day...making more bang for buck. Apparently, this thought doesn't apply to Porsches and such.

I bought my '94 in '96 for around $22,000 with 13,611 miles on it. The only way you were getting an FD anywhere near $20k would have been a used one......

Bought my first Montego Blue one in 1998 w/ burned O-ring(s) and evidence of a well repaired minor front end collision...dude was asking 15.5 and I paid 13.2K. Not a bad deal at the time.
