This is a very clean 1997 Alpine Silver Supra T71 Turbo, Targa, Auto with black leather interior.  This supra has 58k miles and a clean carfax history.  This Supra has $42k in performance upgrades, with copies of the invoices and detailed list of upgrades summarized below.  Overall this supra is in outstanding condition as the pictures we've provided below demonstrate.

This Supra comes with an amazing sound system that includes DVD touch screen Navigation.  There is also a very nice Viper remote control alarm system with remote start function.   This Supra also has a switch to allowing easy change between AEM map settings for  pump gas or race gas, which is a nice feature.

This Supra  has all matching Vin Tags, which are pictured below:

              

              

This Supra was recently dyno tuned at Rrev Motorsports in Portland, OR and produced 520 wheel horsepower--we believe this was the pump gas tune.   A copy of the dyno graph can be viewed below (click on the image to see a large resolution version).

              

This Supra has recently received over $42K invested in performance upgrades, with a dyno tune that was completed by Rrev Motorsports in Portland, Oregon.  We called Tim @ Rrev before agreeing to take this Supra on trade.  Tim vouched for the cleanliness of this Supra as well as the quality of the performance upgrades.    Most of the invoices for the upgrades are included and with links to photos within the summary below:

Now for owner's commentary and the detailed review, including all the things that aren't visible  in the photos:  My personal opinion of this Supra is that it is very clean and a great value at $35,000 given the level of modifications that have been performed.  While there are a lot of nice upgrades on this Supra, there are a few (personal preference) things I would change including the Hurst Pistol-grip shifter and the Rear hatch area, which I would return to stock.   The way the stereo system is designed on a platform, it would be easy to pull everything out.  If anyone is interested in this Supra and feels the same about the rear hatch, we have and can provide all the stock parts necessary to return the rear hatch area to stock. 

Mechanically we are only aware of one issue, which was disclosed by the prior owner and outlined below.  We contacted Tim @ R-Rev and he vouched for this Supra having recently gone through the Supra and Tuning it.  The owner did disclose that they only mechanical issue he was aware of was a leak where the dip-stick mounts into the transmission.

Although the wheels aren't my favorite brand, the color matches well and they do look really good on this Supra and have no wear or curb scrapes.  The interior has wear consistent with the mileage and I would rate a 7 or 7.5 out of ten (just due to the wear on the front seats) as the rest of the interior, floor mats, rear seats, dash, etc. are all in excellent condition.  The engine bay is clean and all the modifications were done nicely with nothing sloppy. 

The exterior looks excellent--better than you'd expect for the mileage.   If you are as nit-picky as me you can always find the little stuff and below I've outlined everything I was able to find and have included a photo - most of this is very, very small/minor stuff:
