The rusty Supra with 622,000 kilometers on the odometer costs more than a new one

In Florida stands a rusty Toyota Supra, which has traveled around the world more than 15 times, with an absolutely insane price tag.

The first owner of this blue Toyota Supra owned it from 1993 until sometime in the mid-00s. Friday evening Danish time, it will be sold for more than the 30-year-younger soster costs new.

In the USA, you can get a brand new Toyota Supra for 46,440 dollars, equivalent to 321,000 kroner. The blue copy that we found on Bring A Trailer has already been bid up to $48,750.

This corresponds to DKK 337,000. And for that kind of money, the new owner gets a car that is well on its way to rotting away from rust.

And then there is the matter of the mileage. According to the seller, the car has already traveled around the world more than 15 times. Or the same as 622,000 kilometers.

Only immediate bonus? Okay, there are two. The 3-liter straight six out front and then a six-speed manual gearbox. We would probably recommend a serious service inspection. Or to run away screaming.

For the same money, you can't get a new Audi RS 6. Not even in the US. But one of the rarest versions of that particular car is now coming to Denmark. Read more about it here .
