Default Hello Lexus community

Hi. I'm new to this website. Just got a 1995 SC400. A good friend bought it new and kept it all this time. She didn't drive it anymore but didn't want to sell it to a stranger.
She nearly gave it to me knowing I'd enjoy it and take good care of it. Bone stone stock right now but I'd like to do wheels and exhaust as soon as I find the best choices.

Nice website. Very good info.



Here's some pics.

Hello everyone!

My name is Alisha, I`m 20, from Latvia and I own a beautiful, black 1995 Lexus SC400!

As in Latvia there are not more than 10 cars of SC400 model, I`ve been searching for a place, where to get some advices, some information about my car and where to meet some people that love Lexus cars as much as I do!

So, here is my boy:




As I`ve bought it 2 months ago, I haven`t made any big modifications yet. But there are big plans for him


Greetings to all the SC owners and have a nice day!

Thank you!

My big plans are about a nice bodykit, under-car neon kit (white),there is already interior neon lights, recolouring (I haven`t decide about the colors yet, but there will definately be black ). And also - the interior change - at this moment it`s all white/beige, but I want to combinate white with black (I already found some ideas in the galleries ).
Those are the ''biggest'' things, but there are also a lot of small things that I`m planning to do.

Yes, THANK YOU for the DIY`s - I already found how to change the instrument cluster`s lightning and other stuff that was very helpful

Thank you and have a nice day!

Hello, my name is Brian. I live in a suburb of Kansas City. I just bought a 92 SC400 with $63,000 miles on it. It is in really good shape, a few nicks and dings. Auto, trac control, the works. Runs and drives great. I just put 93 octane in and WOW.
The only item not working is the 12 CD changer. I cannot even get the cartridge out of the changer. I have tried everything. Any ideas?

Hello there!

I had the same problem with my first SC`s CD changer (1993). - I couldn`t figure out how to get the cartridge out of the changer, but then I found out - I don`t remember exactly how the changer looked, because now I own 1995 SC400 without a changer, but there is a button ''Eject'' or something on the changer, you have to push the button and then wait a little and it will ''come up'''. As I remember the player has to be turned off to do that.

And welcome!

Hi all, I'm new to this forum via DallasImports.net. I just bought my Diamond White Pearl '96 SC400 last night. The only mod the previous owner had done was a drop-in K&N filter. The guy is an aircraft mechanic and used to be in the marines so the car was very low miles and extremely well taken care of. My future plans for the car are pretty simple - HID retrofit, swap in an aftermarket radio and fix the only tear in my interior (the passenger seat).
