1997 Black/Tan SC300 5 speed super rare
Well, I hate to do it but it's time for a change. This is the car that got me hooked on the lexus brand! After owning this car I doubt I'll own anything else for my daily vehicle. Up for sale is my 1997 Black SC300 with a super rare 5 speed for this year. Here are the details.
The car:
1997 SC300 Black with Tan Leather Interior
5Speed Manual
Heated seats, memory
Keyless entry / alarm with 1 key fob and extra key
Premium sound system with 12CD cd changer in the trunk
Sunroof
Just under 119k miles, which are mostly highway
Car is 100% stock down to the air filter
Never used anything but Mobile 1 every 5000 miles
New tires all around 600 miles ago
Brakes pads done 5k miles ago
Back bumper and trunklid recently repainted because someone backed into my car while it was parked in the city, nothing major I just hated the scratches
Quite a few scratches on the car (most only seen up close) but paint is in VERY good condition, very shiny as you see in the pics (car is well above average condition for having 119k miles)
Interior is damn near flawless as you can see in the pics
What it needs and what I'm currently fixing:
Front bumper has a few scratches and could use a repaint or a good buffing if you're **** like me (I never bothered since I drive the car daily)
Asking 10,500 obo for the car, I know there aren't many out there like it. Makes a GREAT daily driver (100% reliable) or would be an awesome starting point for a turbo car.
Please don't hesitate to email me or post here with any questions at all.

I'm just gauging interest right now, I think its going to be hard to find the car I want (white/black GS430) and will probably take a while. The SC is a GREAT car, and I'm really in no rush to sell it. I live about 15 miles south of the city in Glen Mills, PA. I used to go to school in the city at Drexel. Where in Philly are you moving?Andrew

I can vouch for this carr all day. We do the normal maintenance on it for him, and the car is perfect shape. This car single handedly spawned my love for Sc's and my 700+whp NA-T Build on my own. VERY CLEAN and WELL-MAINTAINED.
Good Luck with the sale. Potential buyers may contact me for any mechanical inquiries concerning this car.

Well, it looks like the car is sold to a lucky buyer at this point The car is being held by a deposit right now and is gong to be picked up on Thursday. I'm sure going to miss her
