Never been ripped off in 15+ trips the last three years. Taxi IST to GH is 40-50 lire, depending on traffic.
+1
inbound was 55 lire (heavy traffic) to airport was 45 lire

One bit of advice, allow extra time when you arrive at IST airport. You have to clear security in the very front lobby then proceed to check in. It took 30 minutes on the day I departed. It reminded me of leaving Beruit airport few years ago.
