I bought my SC400 for 2800 with 187810 miles. It needs some work mostly cosmetics and stuff that I can live with not being replaced for now.

I started to do some repairs on it
I removed and dead bulbs in the cluster and added new ones, Replace broken wheel studs, changed the motor for the steering tilt, I also added some 17s.

Some Issues I still have are:
the back seats are torn, the driver panel is broken and climate contol LCD isnt working.

Car runs great, transmission moves smoothly.

I resently posted it on craigslist saying I want $3800 for it. I dont think I am being unreasonable but I have been getting some rediculous offers, so I am no longer selling it.

People need to realize these cars arent for cheapskates, they are for Ballers.

I added some pics below.

Mine was $4,700. I bought it back in July of 2009 with 91,180 miles. I just hit 103,000 miles since it was my only car for a good portion of last year. It was in mint condition too!

I might be getting another SC in a few weeks.

Just bought mine last week for $1200
92 SC400 body in great shape, needs rear bumper repainted, 18" akita wheels, still has the factory front lip.
175K miles runs and drives great
Has a few issues, front control arm bushings shot, front crank seal leaking, drivers seat ripped, steering wheel leather half missing, then the typical blacked climate control lcd and missing gauge needle lights.

No pics yet, hope to get some soon

Paid too much, around 4gs for mine. But I wanted one real bad and it's turned out well so I don't care.

Bought my 1992 three years ago this July, had 133K with ALL the documentation since new, inlcuding the window sticker. Now shows 177K. Paid 2K for it. Needed brakes and A/C charged, tires had little tread. In good shape overall.
