Default looking at buying a 93 sc400 question

I used to be on this forum with a 95 sc400. I sold it and am looking at buying a 93 sc400 with 135,000 miles on it. Is there anything about the 93 that would be worse than a 95. Thanks

According to Edmunds .com the 93 weighs 80lbs. more than a 95. I cant see why they look like the same car to me.

Pretty much the same car. Same problems as the 95. Just do the maintenance or have the owner show proof of it in the past history.

Do you really want to have plastic high beams instead of glass ones? stick with a '95.
