I've only heard of one other trans that went belly up. I thought these trans lasted to 600K+ miles?

I've got 291K miles on mine now.
I got the car with a boat load of mechanical problems. Every time i fixed one thing something new would pop up. A new motor and trans leaves me headach free.

Lexus of Cerritos, CA has an early model LS with 450k miles on display. The owner traded it in for another used Lexus.

Your washer fluid light is on. You better take care of that, and do it soon before it becomes a BIG problem. :-)

1992 SC300
Purchased with 198k
Current Mileage 244k boosted for over 10k
Original motor died at 239k.......Replaced
Original W58 died at 244k.........Replaced
The car is driven every day averaging about 22k a year since owning it.

Aside from some control arm bushings and some odds and ends here and there it drives awesome.

Default 1992 lexus sc400 w/ 292,091 miles!! still running stong!
1992 SC400 still runs strong.. some overheating issue, but im 98% sure its a leak in the radiator, not big but after a few months it overheats again.. doesn't get up and go like it used to, probabaly from wear and tear.. still great car. everyday driver!

also cluster is goin out.. sucks..

You wouldn't happen to have more pics of that headunit installed in your car would you? I'm thinking about getting that same model or this year's version next month or so.
