Paul Walker's Fast and Furious Toyota Supra Fetches $185K
The famous orange Toyota Supra from the original Fast and the Furious movie has been sold for $185,000.
Sold at a recent Mecum Auctions, the Fast and Furious Toyota Supra is the same one that Paul Walker drove in the original movie that kicked off a franchise that has turned in billions of dollars at the box office.
The actual vehicle that was sold isn’t a 10-second car by any means; in fact it has a stock 3.0-liter inline-six engine under the hood mated to a five-speed manual. Sure it has the body kit and extremely rare Racing Hart wheels, large spoiler and graphics, but even the pair of Holley Performance nitrous oxide bottles aren’t hooked up to anything.

Needless to say, the car was likely purchased not because of its ability to perform on the streets or win car shows. It’s now a piece of history with the passing of Paul Walker and just how popular the Fast and Furious franchise has become.
