There is a SC 300 for sale here in the Twin Cities via Craigslist. Here's the 411:

"Here I have a 1992 Lexus SC300. the car runs and drives just fine. has 180,000 miles. just had car brought to tires plus and had an inspection done on it. motor and trans fine, tires good on 18" rims. I have BRAND NEW STILL IN BOX 22" rims for this car I can throw in for extra. 18's come with the car for free. the 22"s need rubbers. This Lexus has the Naturally aspirated toyota Supra motor!! 3.0 inline six. ALL fluids are good and mostly new. Car was previously broken in to so the speakers and radio have been ripped out... the dash looks ugly. this car needs fixing to LOOK pretty again. car need front bumper, driver fender, radio, speakers, exhaust because the car is loud, windsheild is cracked, rear-view-mirror fell off but is still in car. fully loaded with sunroof yes! DUAL heated seats that work! REAR-WHEEL-DRIVE."



The person is selling it due to bills and court fees. So what do you guys think? Is it worth $1700-$1800 and to fix it up? Let me know since I've been looking for a local SC. Thanks!

 

I wouldn't come near it to be honest....

 

Wheres the exhaust? That got stolen also?

Hoodrat wagon, next.

 

seriously? um, i would pass on this one. the 22s are mighty tempting tho

 

Pass on this one, looks like it was stolen and given a little joy ride...

 

I wouldn't touch it!

 

yeah its prolly the crappiest sc you've seen =P. but also i mentioned is it worth to "repair and fix"? or is it just plain bad cuz of high miles?

 

I would offer him 500 bucks for it and tell him keep the rims and throw the stockers back on

 

id offer him no more than 800$ front fenders are easily replaced if the rear quarters look good then go for it but not for 1800

 

Hmm

I'm from Perth west Australia... And one of our mayors' of our town once had his car stolen..

The thieves broke into his home.. Stole the keys. Used the key to enter his garage.. Stole paint stripper and a tin of red paint..

They stole the car ripping pieces of the interior out and chucked it out into the street .. They ran over a couple of animals too so the car had a couple dents and a bit of blood on it..

Then they drove it down a cliff and poured paint stripper on the paint work then tipped red paint all over it.. And used the window wipers to smear it across the glass. Then they sat back in the car.. And soiled themselves.

Laughing as they drove off.. They approached a homeless guy and invited him into the car.. They made him call all his homeless female friends out so that they could all partake in a "soup kitchen"

A soup kitchen is when you have an orgy consisting of homeless people.

... They had a soup kitchen in this blood covered.. Stripped interior having.. Wee filled.. Red paint soaked... Trashed dented stolen car



....... Honestly I would buy that stolen car before I bought that SC.

 

I dont think its worth $1k with the 22's...MHO, $250...

 

Depends if your up to the challenge of sourcing the parts and getting her to the beauty she once was, the miles are not that bad for a 1992 if it was taken cared for, if this ones maintenance was taken care of and have records to prove it, despite the outside and interior then i say yes but not for what he’s asking

What color is the interior? Auto or manual?

 

I agree with turbodremz, honestly i'd pay MAX $400. not a dime more. Hell I only paid $1k for my 92 SC300 in waaaayyyyyyyyyyy better condition.

 

I wudnt even buy it! Too much of a headace

 

Keep looking, my friend. You can definitely find a better deal and a better car.
