Default Finally found a SC300

Couple weeks ago I posted about a couple cars I was looking at. Neither of the people would move to a price where I was comfortable with paying.
So this past Thursday I was riding with a buddy to go work on his integra. We both see a blue sc300 sitting at a little dealer so we turn around to look at it. Sales lady comes out asks if I want the keys to look at it and here it run. The interior is pretty rough but every SC I've looked at has been not the biggest deal for me. The kicker for me was its a stock motor so I know it hasn't been beat to death to bad and it only has 95700 miles on it. It also has vossen 084's on it. I think the rears are 19x11 they have 275/30/19 mildly stretched and the front I think are 19/9.5 they have 235/45/19. I'll post some pictures tomorrow.

its blue I haven't checked to see if the oem color. Its been painted but the jams and engine bay are the same color so if it was a color change it was done right. I know the interior is a expensive fix. the only clean interior'd sc in The greater C/S area was 7200. Seat covers will work for now while I decide if I want to do racing seats or stock

If I'm correct this was a factory color. I've seen this color before. Been a while but I have seen this in the past.

Not sure about the color, it is close to the oem RSP which was only for 1997 I think. Anyway it looks to be in good condition and have a nice set of wheels already. Good luck with the car.

I haven't taken the time to look up the paint code. When its was painted it was jammed so it doesn't look dumb when I open the doors.. The only thing that's really wrong with it is the interior. Eventually I'll either have it reupholstered or get different seats. The rims are nice but I'm contemplating selling/trading them I'm not the huge fan of silver/chrome wheels.

that doesn't look like an OEM color. RSP was 97+ which that isn't. here's all the paints the car came in
