Default 1997 Blk/Blk 5sp SC300 SoCal

Edit No longer for sale on CL. Mods please close this thread. Seems like the only people inquiring on this thread are people interested in trying to drag the car down. I'm having much better luck in supraforums. BTW, the factory spark plugs are missing because I've replaced them. It must not be the original engine. :-)


85,000 Miles, always garaged kept, not daily driven. Mobil 1 every 2 months, which is less than 2500 miles usually. I run a shop so it is meticulously maintained, mechanically.

Cosmetically, outside, its in great shape, there are about 3 or so small dings/dents. No big scratches, key marks, or anything like that. Its not a show car but its clean and looks good. Carbon fiber trunk. Paint always has tons of wax protecting it. Axis 19's (ready for some new rear tires). LS BBK. 6 puck clutch and new f/w. New diff fluid, trans fluid, coolant, brake fluid.

Inside, painted the wood silver w/ clearcoat. I'll get pics soon. Otherwise black interior missing front floormats. Stock deck. Some no-name lightweight seats.

Everything works inside and out other than the trunk release (have to use the clicker). Pics before the 4" greddy exhaust. I'm not sure what is fair to ask for the price. I figure KBB is around 12ish? I'm open to offers, but you've got to see the car to make sure its what you want before we talk price.

KBB in good is $9,425. Excellent is $10,120 but less than 5% of all used vehicles fall into this category.

+1 also why is it missing those stock parts when you obviously maintain the car so well?

Its on there now. I needed new clips. I put in the seats to drop weight... the stock seats were black and one of my friends really wanted them. Its not "missing stock parts".

If you are not interested in this car you can excuse yourself from the thread. Thanks!

Here's a recent picture in front of my shop with the sideskirt. The car mechanically is in very good shape. Cosmetically, its good, but not perfect, and I never claimed that it was. I'm a go guy, not a show guy.

its a nice SC and thats a good picture i like it- but they are asking serious questions that an interested party might not notice- Like the missing side skirt(That i didnt even notice) If your interested in saleing your SC you might want to take updated pictures before you list the add then you dont have to worry about people asking you about missing side skirts when you post pictures of the vehicle for sale missing one. But you are free to post an add however you like but expect questions, Thats part of the game- Nice SC btw-

Thanks for the input dude. But I don't like games and I especially don't want anyone here to think I'm playing games. I'll sell locally to someone who can see the car and appreciate it for what it is. Its really not a big deal, I never overstate the quality of the car or use words like "mint", even though my car probably runs better than 99.9% of the Lexus' on this forum.
