Default FS: RARE Turbo RSP/blk SC300

I cant believe im actually doing this...... but i have for sale my super rare RSP/blk SC300. What makes this car rare? well the color is called "Royal sapphire pearl" or RSP for short, it was only available in 1997 and 1998 and also only available on the Toyota Supra and Lexus SC300/400. There were 56 RSP SC300's made in 1997, out of those most had black and tan interior and only a select few had all black like mine does. This car is believed to be one of only 15 RSP/Black SC300's produced (according to lexus corporate headquarters)

This car is super clean for its age, tastefully modded and well maintained, its adult owned and never beat on or abused its my daily driver so it is 100% reliable and i wouldn't hesitate to get into it and drive it anywhere, in fact if i stay out of boost it still gets 25-28MPG on the highway Current milage is around 170k

The car is still running on low boost of around 4-5psi because it hasnt been tuned yet i should be getting around to this soon but i havent been in a hurry cause it runs great and i dont beat on it, it should be running around 9psi tuned which will be close to maxing out the stock injectors somewhere around 325rwhp. The turbo kit has only been on for around 2000 miles and the turbo was rebuilt when it was installed to make sure there would be no reliability issues so there is NO SHAFT PLAY whatsoever and everything is good high quality parts and done right..... no cheap junk.
Everything on the car works as it should, all windows,locks,heated seats,cluster,climate,ice cold A/C.... EVERYTHING!!!! I did a lot of research before i boosted this car and the car runs and drives as good as stock (except its faster and louder LOL) and several people on here can vouch for that.

I am not desperate to sell it so dont bother to lowball me, if i dont get what i want for it im just gonna keep it. Also if you dont like the price please keep it to yourself. Having said that the price is $12,000 OBO

Thanks for all the compliments guys......... Its gonna be hard to let it go, i know ill never find another this clean again.

I just wanted to ad that even though its not mentioned above the car has had regular maintenance done, plugs were just changed when boost was added and as long as ive owned it its always had 93 octane ran through it and the oil still looks golden when it gets changed. Ive also recently replaced a lot of old/worn items like the e-brake boot, serpentine belt etc... It also has good tread on all the tires and had a laser front end alignment about a month ago.
