The reality is what can you really get at the 20K-25K price
range with the Toyota Reliability and a Convertible these days ?
You have a car that was originally sold for $62K in 2002 and
In today's dollar , that is close to 85-90K . 20 K could now buy
a Camry at most as opposed to you getting the Flagship from
Lexus in a SC 430

Now, I am thinking of not selling it. This is one reason why I would like to keep it; however, if I sell I might get a huge payment to my house mortgage. It would be nice to be debt free and retire young and spend all day with my young boys, 4 and 2 this year.

You can check the sold listings on EBay to see the real prices they have sold for. What we think they are worth and what they sell for are two different things. Most of us always feel our cars are worth more than they actually sell for. Remember SC owners love their cars. That is why we keep them so long.

I don't have any plan to sell my SC, but I do think about how much it still worth. Its a 04 PB with 93k miles & garage kept. I'm guessing it worth $13k~14k.
I recently drove my buddy's hard top convertible 335i and they are totally different. I guess Is till like the comfort & luxury ride of the SC over the firm & sporty European coupe.

Well, I bought mine (02)from an used car dealership in OC So.Cal. back in '15, I payed 15k, it had 76k miles, not perfect, it had a couple of dings on the body and waves on the hood, needed some cosmetic attention, tires (did not match), a new antena mast, headlights polished and an alignment, interior was mint. I figured it was an 02, for the year I could fix what it needed, I did a carfax (no red flags) and took it to a mechanic to get a safety check, checked out with a clean bill of health.
Got new tires and alignment, replaced antena mast the dents and wave I haven' fix yet, have done some costume stuff, aux. device for music and rear camera and different wheels.
Oh, once it got to 95k miles, I got the timing belt and stuff replaced. So now it's a keeper.
