Supra considered a collectable or classic

As long as you only want to drive on sunday, less then 1000 miles a year, ect.....ok, other then that, whats the point to drawing more attention to your car? And if the cop wants to be a prick he can because you broke the law unless you follow ALL the rules.

4 more years! I wish i could have registered it as a classic, damn emissions forced me to go out of county for inspection. oh well at least they can forward the registration from "my" other house 
Here in Iceland every car over 25 years of age is considered classic, then you don´t have to pay any fess and the insurance be comes next to nothing, and you can drive it as you like.
That´s why I´m in no hurry to get my ´87 running, I just waiting for it to become a classic. :naughty:

I'm getting Hobbyest plates for mine when I get another car. You have to have another car registered.
Hobbiest? I've never heard of that. Do you have nay details besides you have to have another car registered? It sounds interesting altough I don't think we have it here.
I have veteran plates on mine. You don't pay reg fees. Or for the plate. Insurance is slightly cheaper.
Under my states rules I wouldn't get antique plates for the reasons previously stated. They only allow you to drive a limited amount....and by limited I mean LIMITED. That to me is not worth the benifit of no more emissions or inspections.

Most have been butchered so badly they're worth little and never will be.

I think we are screwed regastration wise here in ca, but I can register it as a classic with the insurance company after 20 years, premium goes down and coverage goes way up.

As the owner of a first generation Z (S30) it is much easier to get parts for my Z than it is to get parts for the Supra. I'm not sure if the Supra will ever attain the status of the Z simply because the Z was such a landmark car. Just my opinion though.
