Boston Lynn Way auto auction had sold two in the last 30 days or so....both 02, all one owner, blue with brown leather, clean title with 82k mile sold for $12.4 and the other also blue with blk interior, clean title with left fender replacement/painted at 112k mile for $10.8. these cars are very rare to come by. Those prices were reasonable!!!!
Monthly, at ADESA High Line Sales, toyota financial brings in their off lease, demo and left over vehicles so that dealers could buy them to retail. I keep my eyes very close to their SC430's. Black and white are received the highest bids and follow by silver ones. I have not seen them with high mile ones. They are from low 20k to mid 40k mile. They began to show up lately. As I am told, Lexus hides their Sc430 during the winter due to non marketable. Foreigners buy these cars to export them. Last spring, this Russian business man spent over $1.7 milion dollars during one day purchase.
Great example, an 02 sc430 does not matter how many mile, it will worth at least $60k+ in South Vietnam due to 180% import tax/tariff. We're here crying about why these cars cost $20k used
let live a little

Hi, I am looking at buying this for my wife as just a fun play car. It seems like a good deal, one owner, timing belt just serviced. I don't know much about Lexus cars. Should I look at this one or just keep looking. Thanks Jeremy

Why hasn't this guy replied? This is his one and only post. Made a week ago.
Is he the buyer ...or the seller?

I'm leasing an '03.
I picked it up 2 yrs ago w/20,000 miles on it.
Car now has 28,000 miles on it, one year left on the lease.
Buy out is $20K
you should be able to find lower mileage vehicles at a better price

Me too. I made on offer to a wholesale dealer on Ebay, sent him a cashier's check for $24K, received a bill of sale and flew from Los Angeles to Philadelphia for $158. and drove it back. The only very minor disappointment, was the trunk struts were bad and that was not mentioned in the auction. But, my deal was I could have my check back if I was not satisfied with the car after seeing it in person. Why kill a nice deal for a set of trunk stuts? In fact, I did not even mention that issue to him.
Philly to L.A. sounds like fun. My fiance and I drove down to ATL a few years ago and that was quite a trip. In fact she wanted to do it again this year. I'm trying to hold out until we get our GX.
