People that wanted a Porsche 928 but couldn't afford one.
Actually, I went with my dad to the dealer when he bought his 86 Celica ST, with a lot of "manual features". They had one of the first MKIII's on the showroom floor. It was a black N/A with grey leather. I hopped in while my dad was doing paperwork. I remember telling him he should get one of these instead. The Celica was $11,500 and the Supra was $19,800 at the time. I sat in the seat and adjusted to fit me and rowed through the gears imagining what it might feel like to drive this monster. I was 14 and wouldn't be getting my liscense for another two years. So I took a poster home, put it on my wall and started to dream. I ended up wrecking the Celica when I was 16, and bought my first Supra when I was 17 Back in 1989.
