Default Finally bought my first SC!

I've searched in my free time for one over the past 8 years or so between cars, and finally found a deal on one.


1997 Sc400 with 126xxx miles. The interior has no rips or anything. The exterior does have some scratches on the front bumper, and some dings here and there. Overall pretty clean in my opinion. Just has alot of work to go... and here goes my wallet for the next couple years.

Nice. Atleast you didnt jump on a junk SC just because. Patience is a good thing, and looks like it paid off for you. Any plans?

I have a local machine shop I need to take the car to to look at the intake to make a manifold for a supercharger. cosmetics, wheels, drop, and eventually wanna do a manual swap, along with some other things... Just waiting to hear back from some rigs if they are gonna further the hiring process otherwise may be a little while till I'll really be able to start
