Now, if I had the $$ i'd probably still go for the GTR (similar 6 cyl twin turbo from factory) but the supra's are considerably cheaper. You can find them with built motors and single turbo set-ups on Ebay for $50k. Stock GTR is still 80-ish.

This one is a bit much, but makes 550 whp on pump gas and is a gem. The guy is looking for $50k

There's others on there in mid 20's with BPU upgrades.
The Supra is an incon, and I like them, but the looks are only so/so to me. I think the 300ZX TT and the C5 corvette look better, from that time period, assuming 100% stock vehicles. Same for the NSX. Tires are too tiny looking for the wide body.
