The Last Toyota Supra Will Come with a Hefty Price Tag

It will be more expensive than a fully loaded BMW M4 Competition xDrive

Toyota has several justifications for significantly increasing the price of the Supra A90 Final Edition. Beyond marking the end of the current-generation sports car, it boasts a notable power increase alongside various hardware upgrades. With production limited to just 300 units for Europe and Japan, its exclusivity is another key factor. Given Europe’s increasingly stringent emissions regulations, a car like this may never be produced again.

But is it worth nearly double the price of a standard six-cylinder model? In Germany, the Supra’s farewell edition is priced at €142,800. For comparison, the regular 3.0-liter version starts at €73,250, while the base 2.0-liter model costs €63,250. The Final Edition’s price isn’t a typo. In fact, it’s even more expensive in France, where it costs €144,000—buyers there must even enter a lottery for a chance to purchase one.

That kind of money could buy several high-performance alternatives. A fully loaded BMW M4 Competition xDrive still costs less than the Supra A90 Final Edition in Germany. The same goes for a Toyota V-6-powered Lotus Emira with all available options. Even a Porsche 911 Carrera T, which starts at €141,700, is more affordable. A quick search on Mobile.de reveals that for this price, one could also acquire a Ferrari 458 or an Audi R8 with its legendary naturally aspirated V-10.

Still, the fifth-generation Supra’s grand finale is a bargain—relatively speaking—compared to the Alpine A110 R Ultime. Renault’s performance division is asking an eye-watering €330,000, making it the most expensive new four-cylinder car ever.

Under the hood, the Supra A90 Final Edition doesn’t feature BMW’s more advanced S58 engine but instead an upgraded B58. Power jumps from 382 hp to 429 hp, while torque increases from 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) to 420 lb-ft (570 Nm). Interestingly, this makes it the most powerful B58-equipped car to date, even surpassing BMW’s own applications.

Toyota has also equipped the Final Edition with enhanced performance components, including larger Brembo front brakes, an Akrapovič titanium exhaust, and an adjustable KW suspension. The car rides on staggered Gazoo Racing-branded wheels—19 inches at the front and 20 inches at the rear—wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires that are 10% wider than standard.

Aerodynamic enhancements include a carbon fiber front spoiler, a swan-neck rear wing, and a removable hood duct for improved cooling on track days. Inside, the Final Edition features carbon fiber Recaro bucket seats with red seatbelts and an Alcantara-heavy interior. It is exclusively offered with a six-speed manual transmission and benefits from the Supra GT4’s aluminum rear subframe mount.

Toyota has yet to confirm a similar special edition for the U.S., but given the precedent, a high-priced farewell model seems inevitable.
