The Toyota Supra you see here is the ‘stunt 1’ car, which was used for several external and internal shots during the filming of the franchise’s first and second instalment. In total, there were eight Supras, which were used for the filming of the movie and one of these examples was retailed back in 2015 propelled by a NA powertrain with a 5-speed gearbox. Moreover, many of you may know that Fast and Furious nine is all set to release in India, but due to the ongoing pandemic, we have no confirmation about its official release. The main reason behind the insane selling price of this Toyota Supra is because of its connections with actor Paul Walker who passed away in 2013 in a car accident.
