It's 1993 and you have $40,000 to spend on a sports car: Will it be the new Toyota Supra Turbo, Chevy Corvette LT1, Mazda RX-7, Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4, Nissan 300ZX Turbo, or the Porsche 968?

It was down to the C5, Supra and Z for me...I eliminated the Z because it only has 5-speed. Both the C5 and Supra have a 6-speed manual gearbox but I've already owned 2 Supras by that time so I chose the C5..Stock photos of the two Supra gens I've owned in the 80s:
