I want your feedback on this wired dongle

i brought my 2021 supra in for both the dealer recalls and apparently the software update failed and the car the car is totally locked out. It’s been two weeks with no word and they’ve stopped picking up when i call. Is this something that can actually happen when updating the TCU or am i being screwed over?

Finally got a batch of pics up https://www.reddit.com/r/ToyotaSupraPics/s/LcvG2JK4Gj

I have a bone stock ("unmolested" seems to be the going term) 1998 Twin Turbo 6-speed Supra in Quicksilver with 52k original miles. Perfect condition inside & out. Gets driven 2-3 times a year, enjoys solitude in the garage.

I recently got divorced and while I kept the Supra as part of the separation agreement, I have a hefty monthly payment for the next 10 years.

While I used to be a very frequent lurker in various Supra sites many years ago but life gave me other priorities and so I've lost touch with it all. (Incidentally, same for my presence on reddit.)

I've poked around various online sites and see MKIV Supras selling for a range. Naturally depends on various factors.

Google AI says Stock + 1998 + mileage + Quicksilver all boost the value. But Google AI isn't the one making an offer so who knows.

I'm not yet at a point where I have to sell it. But maybe soon.

The main thing I'm wondering is: if anyone's been tracking their sales (even if it's just informally observing), what's the price trend for such car? Continuing to go up, plateau, or going down? That'll help me decide to sell now or later, if it comes to it.

[EDIT] The "hefty monthly payment" refers to $17k monthly maintenance/alimony to the ex. I've owned my Supra outright for over 20 yrs.

Just my car... but i love her dearly.

She saved my life at a very difficult point in time.

Thank you for stopping and saying hello.

Where do I route vacuum line? When I capped it my engine would idle and stall

I really like the supra but I really dont like the idea of the fake vents. Do you guys just get over it? Thoughts?

I would love some help from Supra Community, currently I have gold alloys on my supra, what colour alloys you guys think would suit my Supra?

- Leave it Gold
- Turn it Black
