I think some who own those cars get a little ahead of themselves as it is one of the few Japanese cars of the past 30 years to have any collectible potential at all. I agree with your statement, if I was looking for one of those it would be a turbo. How does the targa affect values?

Yeah Bennington is a great town but I was just passing thru on my way to meet some guys in Albany. It's more fun to take the back way than the boring Turnpike even if the Mass Pike is the only East-West Interstate North of CT.
I didn't have time to step at Hemmings.

That Alta - what a lovely car. I've seen several different Altas. but they were very rare, and although probably most survive, they are probably unheard of over the pond.

Today I saw an MG Magnette of the type Magnette owns. Can't be many of those on the road on this continent.

A friend of mine has a '58 Magnette.. He says he is in the process of restoring it.. No evidence, so far, though..
He also has a '62 MGA that he's driven back and forth to Key West, one and 3/4 times...

magnettes are tough to restore. No body or trim parts, and not much value when you're done. Too bad, I really like them.

I don't know if Targa wold affect values on the Supra. To me it doesn't make a difference.

Went to an Italian car show on the weekend. There was a bunch of newer Ferraris and Lambos, but I took photos of mostly the old stuff.
The show only had about 40 cars, but it was free and fun.
You can see the photos here: Italian Car Show
The first two photos with me in it are from a different show n shine 2 weeks ago.
Enjoy.
