Additional Information
Original factory Black (202) paint.

Engine build capable of well over 1,000 hp.

Reliability & longevity prioritized in the build.

Always garage kept and enthusiast owned.

Adult Owned, Adult Driven, Never Raced

Conservatively tuned and never run above 17 lbs with the current engine / turbo setup.

Approximately $6,000 invested in 2008 in  OEM interior restoration components, including dashboard pieces, trim, carpet, seat belts, visors, door panels, and related Toyota parts. 

The Supra retains its original factory 202 Black paint and presents very well overall. As expected of a 29-year-old enthusiast-driven vehicle with approximately 211,000 miles, the finish is not showroom perfect and does display normal signs of use consistent with its age and mileage, including minor rock chips, light scratches, and other small cosmetic imperfections.
The paint continues to have an excellent overall appearance with deep gloss and reflects the care the car has received throughout its life.  It has always been garage kept and has never undergone a color change or restoration.
Between the vehicle itself, the professional engine build, premium aftermarket components, rare OEM/TRD parts, and years of meticulous ownership, replicating this Supra today would require a significant financial investment and countless hours of sourcing increasingly hard-to-find components.
I believe in full transparency. There is a small, localized area of surface rust beneath the passenger-side mirror caused by a previously leaking mirror seal. The battery-tray area also shows minor surface rust typical for these vehicles, with no rust-through or visible structural corrosion. Aside from these cosmetic areas and the normal wear expected of a well-cared-for driver, the exterior presents exceptionally well.

Located in Southern California. No trades. Clean California title in hand. Serious inquiries only. Additional photographs, videos, and walk-around/start-up footage are available upon request.
