Toyota has handed the keys to the very last fifth-generation GR Supra to Reach Out WorldWide, the disaster-relief charity Paul Walker founded before his death in 2013. The car will cross the block at Barrett-Jackson’s Scottsdale sale in January 2027, with every cent of the hammer price going to the organization.
VIN 99999. One-of-one Phantom Gray paint. Akio Toyoda’s signature scrawled under his racing alias, Morizo. This is not a symbolic gesture car sitting in a museum. It is a fully built, fully loaded Final Edition with the turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six making 382 horsepower, mated to the six-speed manual that purists begged Toyota to offer for years.
The parallels are deliberate. The very first global production MkV Supra sold at Barrett-Jackson in January 2019, also for charity, hammering at $2.1 million. Toyota is closing the book at the same podium where it opened it.
Whether this last car tops that 2019 figure is an open question. The first-ever example carried novelty and hype in a market that hadn’t yet driven the car. This one carries finality, and that is a different kind of currency among collectors. The Walker family connection adds emotional weight that tends to loosen wallets at charity auctions.
Toyota capped North American Final Edition production at 1,300 units, and the Magna Steyr assembly line in Graz, Austria, stopped building Supras in March 2026. That hard cutoff means no quiet extension, no “one more year” reprieve. The MkV is done.
What made the fifth-gen Supra polarizing from day one was the BMW bones underneath. The B58 engine, the ZF transmission, the shared platform with the Z4. Enthusiasts debated its legitimacy for six straight years.
Yet the car earned respect on track and tuner dyno sheets alike, and the late addition of the manual gearbox silenced a vocal chunk of critics. Time has a way of softening those arguments, and scarcity tends to finish the job.
Before its Scottsdale appearance, the car will be displayed at Barrett-Jackson’s 2026 Las Vegas auction as a preview. That kind of buildup is standard for high-profile charity lots, designed to generate buzz and stack up phone bidders months before the gavel drops.
Reach Out WorldWide deploys volunteers and supplies to communities hit by natural disasters. Walker founded the group in 2010 after the Haiti earthquake, and it has remained active in the years since his passing. The Barrett-Jackson partnership with the Walker family on charity vehicle sales is well established at this point, and it consistently delivers strong results.
Toyota is already looking ahead. The GR GT supercar, powered by a V8, has been confirmed for limited US allocation. The company clearly wants GR to remain a performance brand with real hardware, not just a badge on crossovers. Donating the last Supra rather than quietly delivering it to a dealer or an executive’s garage sends a specific message about how Toyota wants this era remembered.
The 2027 Scottsdale auction will tell us something about where MkV Supra values are headed. Six-figure result or seven, the number will set a ceiling that every other Final Edition owner will be watching closely.
