Default Cost of an SC new?
Might be a dumb question. I just got my 97 SC300 a few weeks ago and love it. What did our cars cost brand new from the dealership? Almost feels like one of those cars that was ahead of its time.

I've got the window sticker for my 99 SC400. Base MSRP was $55,305. With the Nak system, sunroof (yeah, they were an option - ever seen an SC without one?), "winter package" (traction control, heated seats), chrome wheels and destination charge, total MSRP was $61,617.

And the carfax showed no lien on the first title, which means the person who bought it new paid cash...
