The special-edition model, which starts at $65,470 and comes in orange or white, will be built in 900 units for the US market.
Toyota’s current Supra generation went on sale for the 2020 model year, just missing the 40th anniversary of the first-generation Celica Supra, which debuted in 1979. However, it is now celebrating the Supra’s 45th birthday with a new Anniversary Edition for 2024.
The special-edition model is available in white or orange paint, with the latter being known as Mikan Blast (“mikan” means orange in Japanese). The most noticeable change is a manually adjustable rear wing that can be switched between different angles. The visual changes include matte-black 19-inch wheels, a black graphic on the side, orange strut tower braces, and GR logos on the brake calipers. Toyota claims it is intended to resemble the Mk IV Supra of “big screen fame,” clearly referring to the Supra from The Fast and the Furious.
The 382-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine and either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission are standard on the 45th Anniversary Edition. Only 900 units will be made, half of which will be white and half will be orange. Thestandard Supra 3.0 and 2.0 models, the latter of which has a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four, will continue on for the new model year without changes. Pricing for the 2.0 starts at $46,635 and the 3.0 starts at $55,595.
