One of my friends just sold his 95 SC300 BLK/BLK 5sp with greyish wood a few days ago. Guess it was pretty rare after all.

Just change the year and you can see what colors were offered that year.

According to alot of stuff ive seen a classic green pearl 5 speed hardtop is likely more rare than an RSP considered classic green pearl was only produced for 1 year.... and rsp like 3-4 years?

There's a chance, but both color and tranny combos were only available in 1997, and RSP was a rarely ordered color. However there is no way to know for sure.

RSP was available in 1997-1998
Classic Green Pearl available in 1997
Manual Tranny available in 1992-1997

So as far as a 5 speed with either color is concerned there was really only one year that a buyer could get a 5 speed with either color.

I would say a white SC with a black interior would be the rarest. I've only ever seen two over the past five years.

The most rare sc I could possibly think of is a royal sapphire pearl 97 manual with black interior. Although the best SC that I would want is a 2000 black on black SC400 with perforated heated seats.

Come to think of it.... one of the sc300 prototypes that the yota executives got is probably pretty rare. I remember seeing one for sale in the midwest once. Although not a fan of how the front end was.

im sure someone will post some sc concept pics if they got em

Yup. I was doing a tentative search into these to buy as a toy, any RSP that's been listed on eBay or here has had a black interior except for one, all others were black and there's actually been quite a few RSP's up for grabs the last couple years.

The white on black, non-existent it seems.

I would have to agree with you on that one sir!!
except more like My 1995 Rennaisance Red 5 Speed SC300

My Fav is 1995 because it has a lot of the little updates and none of the odb2 nonsense. I'll install some 97 parts when I get around to it..

And 1JZ the First SC ever in the US was a SC400 in 1992, the sc3 was released a little later same year
