The SC400 back then didn't cost that much. When the LS was first introduced in the States, I remember watching its commercial listing the car for just $38k.
I had the original sticker on my SC400 laying somewhere and it was in the neighborhood of high $30ks. Even if you opted for Nakamichi stereo, heated seats and traction control, it was still in the low $40ks.
The post 94' models got more and more expensive due to the high tariffs, which partially had to do with the demise of cars such as the RX-7 and 300ZX in the U.S.
My SC4 has just clocked in at around 238,260 miles or so.
