Default 1999 Sc 300; New to me

Here is my first Lexus... I have been looking for a while and finally got a hold of a nice one. I would prefer manual, but I couldn't pass it up.

105k miles and treated real nicely












More pictures on the way

Arlington Lexus of Palatine? Very nice. How much did they bargain on the price?

You wouldn't haves tough time finding a manual anyways.
98+ up were all autos, only a handful of 97s unless a private party had done a swap

Clean! Can't beat DWP. $10K seems a bit high with 105K on the clock, but not bad! Enjoy it man, they're definitely great cars! Get a new grille too! haha

I'll give you $10k for the blue one

And for $10k, they should have fixed the front grill.

Fact is, these cars seem to be worth more than they should be just based on the fact that they are hard to find in good shape. For a buyer who has been looking for a while, they are usually willing to pay a little more, especially if it is local to them. I have autocheck/carfax for a month. You would not believe the crap that is out there.

Great car cheap even in australia they ask around 15 for a 99 and we pay double car prices in general.
