Default Fs: 97 rsp sc300

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 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, It's definetly not that i don't want the car, but i'd really like to get a Z06 and if i don't sell this car then i'm going to have to keep modding it because it's an addiction, so my best bet is to try and part ways with it now




the car runs like a champ, was daily driven by my roomate, it was his only means of transporation and he took every precaution to make sure it would be reliable, it runs and drives just like a stock SC, of course until you get into boost but the car has zero mechanical issues, still averages 22-26mpg it's really in excellent shape. It's been Boosted since about August of last year, hasn't had any issues at all.

Beautiful car. I can't believe it's for sale again. I'm sure this is probably posted somewhere, how many miles are on the turbo kit?

around 4k i think, my roomate who put the car together has a build thread i believe, his screename is "INEEDANSC3"

the turbo manifold and turbo where bought used, 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, and it's a Precision turbo, no ebay junk.




I actually haven't even registered it in my name yet, i've been driving around with my roomates Tag on still, trying to make the call if i want to keep it or sell it, it's the SC i've always wanted, I'm sure i'll probably end up keeping it for awhile, I just know i'll want to start spending money on mods of course, and would rather just save that money for a Z06 right now. If it doesn't sell soon then i'll just keep it and try my best not to mod it, then sell it when i have more vette money saved up.

lol i know guys i'm crazy as h3LL lol I planned on doing v160 and all that to this car, cranking up the boost and all that good stuff, let's face it V160's are crazy expensive and if i can go ahead and sell the car before i get too attached then i'll go ahead with it.

I was really looking forward to doing this car up, I couple hours driving my friends z06 around made me realize i want to try something else for once. in 06 i bought my first lexus and i've had 5 of them since then, awesome cars but 4 JZ motors later maybe i lost a little enthusiasim

Erik...you're crazy. You don't need a Z06, you need a 5spd SC400.

So both you and Rob want Vettes, eh?
