Default 97 RSP SC300, Single turbo, RSP/Black

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 very 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 21-28MPG City/Highway mix

If it doesn't sell i'll definetly hold on to it, it's already gonna be hard parting with it knowing i'll probably never see another RSP/Black interior car, and definetly not in this condition

Car is really in great shape, it runs and drives like a stock SC, just louder and faster, has no weird issues,idles, leaks or smoking... it's 100% reliable daily, the body in good shape, and the paint is still glossy and looks mint 5 ft away, the front bumper has alot of rockchips since it mostly has highway miles, and recently some bad news a few months ago my trash can blew over in a storm, i happen to have my car outside and the full trashcan hit the passanger side front fender and put two small dents on it which has prompted me to lower the asking price, they are not too noticeable on a daily basis, if i fix it before it's sold price will go up... there is nothing else wrong with the car at all.

Haha, I understand. I have an 88' Red with light grey (cloth) interior, 116K originial miles on body, 4,000 on motor, weisco pistons, Eagle rods, HKS 2.0mm HG, ARP head studs, 550cc injectors, Lexus AFM, FMIC, Work emotions, it isnt too bad. I love the car. I also have the 89+ front bumper, and the same Bomex lip that car has but it does have a 7M, but this one is done right, so im SO not worried about it blowing a head gasket. It was built by a guy named Brian who works as the master tech at toyota, and was watched build it by Erin at Carma performace (well known supra people here in Nashville)...but anyways back on topic, GLWS man!

I love MKIII, they get so much hate

Slightly off topic, but did your roommate buy that from a guy in DFW? That car looks incredibly familiar.

Very clean car. Good luck with selling it with that price though. Times are tough nowadays, especially selling a heavily modded car (I know this because I just sold my other car which is heavily modded).

It's not like it's a 92-94 red, green, or black SC with ragged out tan interior, even in this economy the starting price is pretty fair, if i wanted to sell it within 24hrs or something yeah it would be cheaper..

I Think it this is personally one of the better deals on CL for a clean modded SC..

some people prefer picking up a worn out SC for a couple G's and using the other money for mods, that's fine too.
Gluck
