Iam not a stranger to luxury cars..I own a 2006 CL 600 Benz V12 TT miles with 32k as well as a 1994 Acura Legend LS 6spd with 130k miles. I have always a deep passion for the SC400. Iam also looking for feedback or what to look ..pros and cons! All feedback is much appreciate. I look forward to learning tons of information.

I agree with the fake wood being removed on arrival to me. If everything checks out a JM Lexus Dealership in Pompano Fla. it will be in the garage this weekend. For piece of mind while the car is at the Dealership Iam going to have all the fluids changed, transmission serviced, and depending on what the diagnostic report states have the 90k service done. Any seals or anything of the nature that I should have done while its at the dealership can anyone think of? I look forward to becoming an active member on this forum.
