The Fast & Furious franchise has enough cars that could fit an entire exposition. Some of them were sold and now it’s time for the Paul Walker’s Toyota Supra to find its new owner. The Toyota was starring along with the actor in the first movie in the early-2000s tuner scene.

The famous Barrett-Jackson auction house already listed the bright orange 1994 Supra. This powerful beastie can be seen in the 2001’s “The Fast and the Furious” and 2003’s “2 Fast 2 Furious”, and typical for the auction house, the lot has comprehensive documentation that includes a certificate of authenticity.

Movie cars that are used for both exterior and interior shots, will demand to have everything up to the notch. So, expect a pretty interior in its prettiest shape. According to its general description, the car features its aftermarket gauges, steering wheel, seats, and head unit a little in-your-face when looked at on their own, but when compared to the exterior, they’re actually quite restrained.

Featuring the Candy Orange Pearl finish paint from a Lamborghini Diablo and the sides are contrasting the iconic “Nuclear Gladiator” graphics. To make sure of its visually striking impact, the upgrades also include a Bomex body kit, TRD-style hood, APR aluminum rear wing, and 19-inch Dazz Motorsport Racing Hart M5 wheels.

The car also has its stock performance ranks so don’t expect more than the renowned 2JZ-GTE turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six standard engine. This little beast sends its power to the rear wheels through a 4-speed automatic transmission. According to their official site, the auction is scheduled between June 17-19.  Get ready for a heavy price, because it’s worth it more for its history than for its performances.
