Default Finally! My own SC430

I have helped two people find and buy a SC. Just bought my first, a 2002 silver/black with 86K for $16,900. It will look great next to my 2005 LS430 silver/grey ! ! !

Welcome....I have a preference to the silver/black combo myself. Follow the link in my signature panel below... Did you do your due diligence with the maintenance history on the car? With 86k and nearly 12 years old hopefully the major issues were already taken care of.

Welcome! I bought my 2008 white one three weeks ago tomorrow. Already a Lexus Lover as I handed over my 2009 ES to my husband. Enjoy!

GregoryNP, congrats, did you buy it from a dealer (maybe a Lexus dealer?) The price seems acceptable for the mileage, but is firmly in the "retail" price range for a 2002. I recently saw a high mileage (considerably over 100,000 miles) 2006 model (with all the associated upgrades) in the 17-18K range.

Please do post pictures.

Good for you! Congrat's, I'm sure you will love this car as much as the rest of the gang here. Beware, the mod bug will be ready and waiting to bite you when you least expect it! lol
