Unhappy fs: 1997 Toyota Camry Turbo, $5k takes its all

I hate to do it, but i cant afford to keep two whips. and considering im not selling the GS4 that i just bought, the other one has to go. My daily diver was a Green 1997 Toyota Camry that i modded to my liking. It has 126k on the odo, and has about $10k in mods done to it. Im asking $5k obo for the car and the mods EXCEPT for the Kenwood head unit (can be left in for a price, but i want it, so not too sure...) Ive always changed the oil on my car every 2500 miles, and i bought the car new. only mobile one 10w-30 synthetic oil. I never raced the car, but im not gonna lie, ive put the pedal down once or twice. This is a great beater car for those of you that need a car for the winter.
the price of the car includes the following:

18 x 7.5 Giovanna Kobe (chrome) w/ yokohama AVS Sport Tires (225/40/18)
TRDNW Turbo kit- (Garrett T3 turbine, toyota MR2 turbo injectors, HKS racing type one BOV, Autometer boost and a/f gagues, autometer dual a-pillar gauge pod) only on the car about 20k
H&R Lowering Springs 1.5"
TRD Short Shifter
Come prewired for stereo setup in trunk (subs and amps sold)
Will come with diffrent aftermarket head unit or you have one that you want to put in the car, i can have it installed for free with the removal of my Kenwood unit.

Lots more accesories added to the car to make it look good. Cars never been in any accidents, its been my baby since it came off the truck. since i got the car from my dad, i have washed it and hand waxed it weekely, but moved to bi monthly with the new job that i got. Of couse the paint has its imperfections do to age and *******s in the publix parking lot, but not anymore than you would see on a car of this age.

here she is, in all her glory

Once again, asking $5K for all of it! (except the Kenwood Unit)



More Pictures here!

thanx folks!

No Rear end collision? The rear bumper is much lighter.

nope...the rear bumpers on about 95% of all camry's fade. the fade is caused by the material that they used to make the rear bumpers. The polyeurathane is diffrent than that which was used to make the fronts. so it has a tendency to fade. Actually in person, the rear bumper hasnt faded all that much. of course it has a little, but not to the extent that others have.

Car looks very clean... But he never stated anything about the current HP.. Also why would you want a Turbo as a winter beater ?? LOL sure its a Toyota Camry but still...

when the car first got the kit put on it, it was running at 10lbs for about maybe a few weeks and it was dynoed at 205hp. I have the documents somewhere around here, if i find them ill scan them. I dont run the car at 10, thats just not practical. I usaully run about 3 to 5lbs to get to and from work, conisdering im usually running in Vaccum anyway. Hey, you never know...some people that have 3 supras sitting in their garage need something to drive during the winter. I know alot of them want the performance...its worth a shot anyway!

Its a 5 speed...wouldnt dare do this to an auto.
