Maybe the price for a smashed up RHD itr with 200k and a shredded interior the way things are as of late.

nevertheless this gsr is pretty clean so I'll give it that.

I believe that Supra runs a old T72 turbo. I really doubt it can produce anywhere close to 1kwhp.
With that aside, the price is quite good if that's the kind of car you are looking for.

Don't think RG built it. It was purchased from States already built, RG re-tuned it I believe.

It definately needs some up keep on the exterior side: full detail for one is a must. I can tell you that the hood I don't believe is a authentic top secret, given from the fitment that I saw is was a seibon replica. The only other thing that I saw is the targa top couldn't be removed as one of the targa nuts inside the top was broken, they were trying to find ways to fix it though at the time which I think he was considering buying a new targa top.
Only other thing I would agree with Supraz666 the old t72 is capable of putting out big numbers but don't think it would be reaching them anymore. For the price right now I would say it's a good buy given a little work he does fluctuate the price a lot I have seen it go from 88,000 down to 48,000 at points.

That means he's really only asking 20k for a one owner no accident e46 m3. Maybe not the best price, but certainly market value right now.
Tempting

I think honestly it's a great price. Our dollar isn't worth shit and it's a nice rare(ish) car. No one will find a better one for cheaper, unless they are VERY lucky.

I think patience is key. The USD has been dropping in the past month and NASDAQ just dropped 2% yesterday. It might be worth waiting a few months before buying your next toy.

Yup, that's me!
Nothing has depressed me more than the rising of the US dollar right at the time I'm ready to pull the trigger on something spectacular. Paying a $10k+ premium due to currency fluctuation makes my balls hurt . You can really tell that locals(dealer and private alike) selling higher end cars are upping their price due to the exchange.
Take this for example: 2007 Porsche Turbo 997
Would have been closer to $80 back in the summer.

I guess I can't complain since full price would've been $2100 right now.

I sold my 4 year old car for a 14 year old car and it was the best decision I have ever made besides marrying my hot young wife.
