Lexus IS250 ;)

Guys, I am really struggling owning this car. I have "bit" off more than I can chew, and now, reality has stepped in. I can not afford to keep this car any more, as I have other plans. Im really regretting putting this up, but I have to set priorities straight.
1999 Lexus IS200, in Pearl White, 100,00kms on original Lexus motor, with log books, showing servic at every 10,000kms. new motor, has had about 100kms put on it! Its the Sports model, with 4 air bags (Seats, passenger and driver) Power windows, central locking, climtae control and premium sound system. The car is in immaculate condition, and has always been garaged, and well maintained. Petrol consumption is still great, netting 500km to the tank. You are getting style, luxury, and performance!
Here are the details/Pics
Mods Are:
Body:
TRD Carbon Fibre Grill
TRD Elegance Bodykit
Wheels/Tyres: (All been put on last week!)
18 x 7.5/8 Gram Lights 57 Pro
225/40/18 Front Falken FK451
245/40/18 Rear Falken FK451
Suspension:
Tein Flex Coilovers
Tein EDFC
TRD front and rear sway bars
TRD Bushes
JIC Front Strut bar
Cusco rear strut bar
Engine/Mechanical:
1JZGTE Conversion
Hybrid FMIC
Haltech E6X
3" Exhaust, from Turbos
XForce Muffler
W58 JZA80 5 Speed
Altezza JDM LSD
Interior:
Trust GREX Gearknob
Limited Edition Carbon Fibre Steering Wheel
SARD Boost Gauge
As you can see, i have spent a fortune on this car, and I have not yet been able to enjoy it, as I only got her back last week, and it has not yet been tuned. Next week, a set of steel wheel turbos, will be put on, and power is expected to be at 220rwkw plus.
Please, no joy riders, or time wasters, i have spent over 28k, on top of the purchace price! Offers to koffeeblack@gmail.com
Would also consider a swap, with cash adjustment, 1J soarer (old School) or JZA70 Supra preferbly!

Can't you sell something else?
Modding cars and selling is not the greatest idea financially either! You don't "need" steel wheel turbos, could pick up some cheapies and whack them on and then its done right?

It doesnt work like that mate with modifying MOST cars. Look this is an lexus is200 man. And if you saw the list of modifications this car has you can tell the modifications are brands which have the highest reputation. Why ruin it with cheapos as it could just blow. But thats in my opinion.

Hey guys, thanks for the comments, his right chris, i didnt want anything cheap on the car, all top shelf stuff, like RAYS, Tein TRD etc etc!
Ok guys, enough PM's!! LOL Im asking 50k, very negotiable, but im posting this early, car wont be available till about March, still needs to be tuned, air con hooked up, and little things here and there. So Still got to spend about 3k more! Like I said, I would consider a swap, something unique, like a JZA70, MZ20 Soarer (All 1J powered!) or an AE86, plus cash.
I have had sooo many PM's, I have probably forgot to PM people back, and so many phone calls, and offers. I really wanted it to be hard to sell lol!

this car justifies the 50k price,
i would just like to know where the HELL did you find a STOCK 1999 IS200 for 50K?
i would like to know so i could abuse the tool which will never sell his car.
that said, this car is no where near stock, and 50K is a good price considering the parts that have gone into it, i cant imagine it being anywhere near that price if you tried to replicate it.
