yup, most of them are pics from when the owner sold the car and they steal the pics and wait a little while and then post it for sale. alot of times they steal someones entire autotrader write up too. And on the supra forums most of the people who own the cars that are getting scammed have no idea there pics are stolen .

There is a black one that has everything done to it I remeber it has a carbon lip and that one is always up for sale at prices ranging from $5500-$23000 and at $23000 it migh SEEM lagit untill you research and see that the car was really sold for almost $60,000 on the supraforums.

well I know people actually send these guys moneyt all the time and end up with nothing. I takes younger people mostly who dont know much about the car other than YESSS ITS A SUPRAAAA. but in reality any 97-98 supra stock or modded that is a 6 spd with under 100k will sell for about $30-40k if they are blue green or charcaol color normal price is high $40s

Same thing if is a 93.5-96 with heavy mods and low miles or if it is a hardtop no targa top. no matter what you wont get one for less that $15 most of the time. There is a auto with 180k on it going to $15,500 right now and a 1998 6spd with 201k on it going for $23k even a crashed one on there tons of mods but it is damaged all ove it got sandwictched he is looking for $15k

Ebay is on top of it the ones you posted are down already autotrader never notices I dont think though
