SOLD my 97 SC300 .............
Guys. My SC is gone now. Sold it the other day for some personal reason.
I will be getting a 99 or 00 SC soon though (that was a promise I made to myself when I decided to sell my SC). I looked around but the going prices for 99 or later SC models are in the $30k, which I can't justfy spending. So I will wait about 6 to 12 months before getting another SC.
Although I've only had my SC for a short period of time, let me tell you it is such a great car! Excellent built quality! Head-turning design! and so forth. Salute to the SC line up!
Of course I will still be visiting this forum from time to time.
I really miss my SC!!

That's too bad 
'99s and '00s are a rare breed. Any reason why you want those as opposed to a '98 model? The '99 only has DRLs, 3-spoke steering wheel, and bigger brakes added. Nothing that extrordinary from a '98, IMO... '00s only have a VRS, which I'd never use anyway.

Lex400SC.
No particular reason actually. I thought I'd buy the newest SC model I could afford, and keep it as long as possible.
By the way, I found a pair of parking light bulbs that matches factory HIDs perfectly.
They are called 'quad' head LED bulbs (can be found on ebay).
I purchased one pair for my SC but they didn't match the Sylvania Silverstar bulbs that I had on my SC, at all!
Instead I installed them on my LS400. And surprisingly they match the factory HID almost perfectly!
Pics coming up.

Obviously, this pic doesn't do it justice. my camera picked too much blue (in real life, they don't look this blue instead you can see a little bit of purple hue in them)

Those LED clusters are $12 from SUVLights. You'll have to email Jen directly for it though because they aren't posted on his site.
Before you buy any foglight bulbs, wait for me to get pics up of my Narva bulbs. They are going to be yellow, hopefully like the GS430/IS300 fogs.
