How ya'll doing, I signed up on this here club because my buddy who works for the Lexus dealer in Charlotte, suggested this would be a good place to sell my Lexus. However after reading the rules I am wondering what kind of jackass came up with you need to post 100 times to sell something, or 500 times to sell something over 500 bucks.
I have a very low mileage car that is all original with all recepits from day one. It has brand new tires, new Toyota battery and fresh oil change at the dealer. It only has 78 K miles on it. I would think you guys would want a shot at my car. But the rules won't let me post it WTF is that about? Are the moderators like 16 or something?
so ya like to list the cars you own ok hope you can keep up with me.
09 Camry LE
97 T-100 Ex Cab SR5 308k miles
94 SC 300 Teal/grey 148k miles *
93 SC 400 Blk/ Tan 78 K miles *
99 MB CLK320 convertible *
67 Caddy Deville Convertible *
66 Mustang BLK/Red IL6 3spd manual
62 Chevy Impala Sports 4 dr. Sedan 283/auto no post
62 Chevy Impala 4 dr with post, No motor/350 turbo tranny*
61 Chevy Belair 4 dr, 283/auto*
07 Harley Electra Glide, looks like a street glide, blue pearl

I believe that is everything own that has wheels on it. Everything with a * behind it is for sale. No I am not a car dealer. I have a sickness. It's call I like it I buy it..

Just got a 99 SC300 after my RSX-S got totaled(RIP baby). This thing has 80k miles, all major services done (ATF is overfilled from dealer, need to siphon that ASAP). I thought I wouldnt like this car coming from a light weight, high-rev coupe, but something about the way it drives and its style is just freaking awsome. They really dont build cars like they use to.
Im a big DIYer so I have a lot to learn...if anyone can link to the service manual thatd be great, I cant find any

![Question](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi There Sc users. Happy to join the club.
I Just turned 18 last December and got my license along with a Used 1993 Sc400. Im so happy that my first car is so Sexy that was until I got inside. This car has racked up an amazing 288k miles. The dashboard light is faded. The stereo is gone and the thing holding the stereo is falling apart. The left door panel is torn up and the passenger one is missing the handle. The flooring is coming apart and nasty. I don't know if the car has A/c or Heater. All this time I have been using it for school. It still is running strong though and I just love that V8 Sound. Im am now a college student and working at Taco Bell. So the question is should I fix her up. I do not want to let her go. Her beauty is too much. So I would like to hear what you Sc lover would have to say. If it cost to much to fix than I'll just ride it till it gives out and get a new car but I don't want that to happen.
Thank you for reading.

Fixing up the interior will cost a lot more than you might expect. Make sure the major engine and suspension parts are in decent working order first.
Overall SCs are not cheap to keep..... (but to many of us worth it).
Your idea of driving this one as far as it can go while saving for another one (in much better shape than this one) has merit. You may even want to acquire another SC and take what you can from this one and put into the next one and part out the remainder....

The thing you have going for you is the fact that it's tan. Tan interior parts are the most plentiful. If you are not in a hurry, you can find a cleaner junkyard interior and buy the parts you need. I would also experiment with SEM paint if you want to keep some of the parts you have in the car and get off cheap. I have seen some people paint the interior plastic and make it look great!

It insures that people join for the right reasons.
And I would refrain from calling people you don't know JackAsses.
Good Luck

Hi Everyone the names Bryan I recently purchased a 96 SC400. This forum has been very helpful with solving some of the issues the car has. The car only has 113k on it and was a one owner car I have a copy of the original title from when it was bought new in 96. The car was sitting for quite sometime and the power steering pump was bad and leaked onto the alternator so I had to replace both. I currently have the car running just need to replace the rear tires and put a tag on it. I will put some better pictures on here once I get the car on the road. I'm happy there is such an informative forum with a strong user community, I hope to become a valued member as I am planning on keeping this car for many years as the Lexus SC400 was always one of my favorite cars!

Well Just wanted to say hello from michigan
My name is Ryan McGriff. Ive been on this forum many times for information on the several sc300's i have owned and my friends have. I switched to the e36 m3 for a while then grew up and bought my G8 gt. Wel recently on craigslist i found a rare 1992 Sc300 5 speed from the factory. Car was and is still in shambles on the out side. Paid 300$ towed it home put a new alt on and bam runs perfectly. In till yesterday the clutch peddle got stuck on the floor. I lifted it with my foot and that car was fine after that. I have receipts on the clutch being done recently. Well drove home parked it. Next morning it started fine drove to school but after class it would not start. As if the clutch wasnt engaging. So after a while it some how started drove home fine. Same story this morning, started and stalled it on accident since it shocked me that it started, well it wouldnt start after that, cars dash and everything lights up no battery issues. I even tried pressing on the safety pin under the clutch peddle. So i hope to find more answers and be a valuable member to this community.
