Front bumper has the normal chips and wear expected with the mileage
Few nicks, chips, extremely minor dings, etc..
Background:
I picked this Supra (my 4th) up last summer to use as a nice weather daily driver. The history on the car is several years ago it used to be stock twin BPU until the original twins died. I’m not sure of the exact mileage when this occurred, but I believe around the 85-90k miles mark. Instead of replacing the twins the owner had MSP install a Boost Logic T67 kit in their place and run on low boost (15psi); that’s how the car was when I bought it. My original plan was to do a built auto/high stall, etc.. but I later decided to focus my efforts toward my Hardtop 6sp build, so I swapped literally ALL of the stock twins components from my 44k mile Hardtop (only BPU for 2-3k miles) to this one, so the car has an absolutely fresh set of twins. It is MUCH more enjoyable to drive now with the instant response of the turbos in sequential mode.
Clean/clear title in-hand for an easy deal. All VIN tags in place. Clean Carfax/Autocheck; no accidents that I am aware of; however the front bumper and hood were repainted at some point many years ago. I had the driver side front fender re-shot as a result of a crease and chipped paint on the wheel arch that could not be PDR’d out. No mechanical issues, no leaks, no CEL, etc.. Car is dead reliable and I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it cross-country. Absolutely no smoke whatsoever at any time – cold start, decel, etc… not sure if the VSS have ever been replaced but either the way they are healthy.
Runs VERY strong -- took it to the track last weekend and ran 12.0 @ 122MPH on an unprepped lane (since I was on radials) with traction issues. Going back this Saturday on the CCW Drag Pack and expecting 11.7 - 11.8 or so. The trap speed put it around 430-440WHP.
Would like to see what TRADE offers are out there. Trade value of $24,500. I can do cash up or down depending on what you've got, but would prefer an even or cash on your end deal. I'm primarily looking for a clean C5 Z06 stock or built, or a clean, built low mile C5 coupe. HIGHLY interested in forced induction! Not really interested in a 'vert but will consider all options. Other trades considered as well -- I like fast and I like clean!

This Supra traps very well for a bpu automatic. Strong car.
I had one like this and just added a 67mm turbo and meth
injection(stock fuel system otherwise) and a stall convertor
and the car ran 10.5's at over 130mph. Very fun on the street.
Abe is a good seller and has had some nice cars. In fact we have
owned several of the same cars over the years. You need a stout
FI Hardtop Vette to go with your single turbo hardtop supra.

^Thanks, fellas! Wayne can attest to my car ADD.. 
I've been asked if I'm willing to sell outright and I am. I started with a trade offer to see what I might find out there, but I'm certainly not opposed to selling outright. I'm in no hurry to move this car and I know the market is a little soft right now, so we'll see...!

Sorry -- should have updated this thread. I'm in the process of locking up a trade deal; should be completed this week. If it falls through I will let everyone know.
