What is the average age of the MKIII driver?

We're 54. We bought the 1990 when we were 37.

As bikers, skiiers and other speed freak hobbies, we love the thrill our car gives us on the open road with the turbo howling. 190 kph was the fastest she'd let me take her - lucky thing too, a cop was turning onto the hwy about a mile up the road. I hit the brakes, downshifted, put on the R signal and turned into where he was turning out.

He either gave us a break or was none the wiser.

The Supra is indifferent to the age of it's owner

Bought my 1988 in Nov. 1987. I was 29 at the time.
Just turned 70k miles a few months back.
Stock until about 1 year ago. Now slowly adding mods for road racing but keeping as much original and look as possible.
Tein flex, turbo upgrade, intake and exhaust, boost controller, fuel cut defencer, 550cc injectors, TOYO RA1's...maybe a few other things?
Still want more speed, just need more time and money.

23, I bought my first supra when I was 21. I had a 1987 Toyota Supra N/A. Now I just bought this month a 1988 Toyota Supra Turbo Targa with TEMS.
This new supra is awesome but you can never replace that feeling of driving your first supra for the first time.
