How Expensive Can They Get?

Car people love to argue about value. So when man deemed a 2026 Toyota GR Supra “the most expensive Supra ever built,” the comments filled with Corvette comparisons, Porsche alternatives, and a whole lot of skepticism.

Auto reviewer Omar (@omardrives) isn’t shy about his feelings on the price point and other details on the Toyota GR Supra MkV Final Edition. The MkV Final Edition starts at $68,550. Omar says the one he features cost $72,000.

Omar says, “Under the hood, it’s still rocking the BMW turbocharged inline-six, making 382 horsepower. Zero to 60 comes in 3.9 seconds, and a limited 1,300 units can be had in matte black or this matte white.”

When Omar walks around the car in the TikTok video, he points out red seatbelts, GR logos stitched into the headrests, wind-buffeting deflectors, and subtle aero bits. He teases that the horn “still has a horn sound that’ll scare absolutely no one,” a humorous lowlight after the visual show.

He then revs the exhaust, praises its tone, and mentions upgraded brake and styling options tied to a GT4-inspired pack. The video has garnered more than 57,000 views, largely because it combines enthusiast-level detail with social media snark.

The claim that this is the “most expensive Supra ever built” is provocative. Toyota has rolled out numerous special-edition Supras over the years, but the Final Edition is arguably the most visibly distinct and limited incarnation so far. That said, “most expensive” is relative, depending on optional packages, regional pricing, and aftermarket valuations.

While Omar highlights features in the video, a deeper dive reveals just how much of this car is cosmetic, limited-run polish, and underlying engineering tweaks. According to Autoweek’s early review, key upgrades include larger front brake rotors (14.7-inch Brembo discs), stiffer suspension tuning, revised chassis bracing, and aerodynamic enhancements (carbon-fiber ducktail, arch flaps, spats) to better balance downforce.

Toyota’s feature pages confirm the standard GR Supra 3.0 (non–Final Edition) carries 382 hp from a 3.0L twin-scroll turbo inline-six, and offers the same 0–60 mph time of 3.9 seconds (automatic).

Visually and materially, the Final Edition leans into exclusivity: red-accented shifter rings, braided GR cupholder covers, red seatbelts, gloss carbon mirror caps, and bespoke wheels. The matte black/white color choices further emphasize its limited-run nature. Toyota hasn’t publicly broken down the exact cost to add all of these, but they clearly contribute to the premium over a base Supra.

Toyota intends to cap global output at 1,300 units, further underscoring that this isn’t just a trim option, but a sendoff edition.

Performance & the BMW Question

Omar is blunt: the engine and powertrain remain BMW-derived. That’s a sticking point among many Supra purists. In the comments, one viewer shoots back: “72k for a [BMW] B58. I could do better.” Another: “Still BMW.” A counterpoint emerges in other replies: “I have one and love the fact that it’s a BMW.”

This duality has defined the MkV Supra era. The B58 3.0L turbo-six continues to produce 368 lb-ft of torque, and the unchanged power figure of 382 hp mirrors that of earlier GR Supra 3.0 models. A manual version is rated to hit 0–60 in 4.2 seconds, while the automatic remains pegged at 3.9 seconds. In other words, you’re not paying for extra speed so much as for exclusivity, trim, and collectibility.

Omar and others also speculate that the MkVI Supra might move to all-Toyota or in-house architecture, a change that would alter the narrative entirely. The potential departure from BMW components has become a frequent topic of discussion among fans, especially in comment threads like those associated with the video.

BEST FULL EXHAUST for the MK5 Toyota Supra!

Is $72,000 Justified?

The pricing is where the room for debate opens wide. To many viewers, $72K for a Supra that doesn’t improve performance over its standard sibling is steep. One user quipped, “Somebody wasted 72k lol.” Another referenced nostalgia: “I found an R34 for $80K. So I’ll pass.”

In context, $72,000 puts this Supra in rarefied territory. You could spend a similar amount on a base Porsche 718 Cayman, a lightly used C8 Corvette, or even a BMW M2, all of which offer unique performance or brand cachet.

In forums, critics argue the premium is too steep; in one write-up, a commenter argued that even at $70K the car “isn’t worth” that much. Others caution about depreciation: “It will be 55K on used lots … I did this mistake on my A91 edition.” One user from Australia noted that, because orders have already ended Down Under, prices on the Final Edition are rising.

That said, for a subset of buyers, the Final Edition might check a box they value: exclusivity, sendoff appeal, and badge-bragging rights. Toyota’s announcement that this is the final MkV helps lean into that emotional narrative.

As the last hurrah for the MkV Supra, the Final Edition is a bittersweet sendoff. The MkV launched in 2019, reviving the Supra name after a long hiatus, and its production is set to end mid-2026. Its legacy has always been controversial because it straddles Toyota heritage and BMW collaboration.

The TikTok clip doesn’t shy from that tension. Omar enjoys pointing out styling flourishes while also poking fun at the weak horn. The comment section follows in kind: skepticism, hope, criticism, and defense all swirl together. It’s not uncommon for simply showing a car to become a meta commentary on what enthusiasts care about.

Whether the Final Edition secures the MkV’s place in the Supra pantheon is still up for debate. But one thing is certain: at $72,000, Toyota is selling a story, a moment, and a collector gamble. For some, that’s worth every dollar. For others, the horn joke says all you need to know.
