Default WTS SC430 03' Midnight Green. Light Mods.

Sigh, I never thought I would ever do this but I am I have owned by SC since late of 2003. I am the first and only owner; seriously...I'm in tears right now just thinking about letting her go. She's taking me everywhere and never failed me mechanically. I beg that the next owner will treat her as well as much as I have. I know for sure she will find a new home and a great owner who will love and shed as much of blood as I have. I will miss her dearly as much as I will miss many of those who I've come to close to on CL. Don't worry, I'll be around even though I currently wont own a Lexus . Please see below for details and pictures of my car.

Details:

VIN: JTHFN48Y230047093
Year: 2003
Make: Lexus
Model: SC430
Exterior: Midnight Pine Pearl (color code: 6S6)
Interior: Ivory (ECRU), Yellow wood trim
A/C
Retractable Roof
ML factory Speakers
Navi
Radio FM/AM, 6 CD changer
Engine: 4.3L V8
Mileage: 88,226 as of 9/07/11

Title: CLEAN
Location: Torrance, CA

AutoCheck Vehicle History Report: I listed my car on ebay local. If you look here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CLEAN...item1e67268807, you will find my car history.

NEW PRICE!!!!: "AS IS" $20,000 OBO. I've decided to sell the car whole. I spend over 10K in MODS and I'm only expecting to get back less than half of what i spent. I will advise later if I will part out. Ideally, I want to sell to someone local. However, if you are out of state and really interested in purchasing this car, I'm in the shipping industry so I can arrange the car to be shipped to you.

Mods Currently ON:


Blitz Exhaust
Tom Eyelids
Tom's Roof Spoiler

Full Wald Style Kit
Iforged Astra 20" Front. 8.5 and Rear 10 (with 18mm custom hubcentric spacers). Sorry I am not sure what the offsets are but I can find out if necessary. Tires sizes are 245/30/20 in front and 275/30/20 in the rear. About 80% thread life on tires.
Megan Testpipes (no longer installed due to smog check but still have in hand)
Tinted windows, quarter windshield, headlights and taillights (all vinyled)
Tinted sidemarkers front and rear (painted)
Tinted reverse light lens and yellow fogs (vinyled)
Blitz Throttle Control
Blitz grill
Tom's Tower Bar

Ebay metal pedals (interior)
Ivory Kuda (interior)
6000k headlight bulbs
3000k HID fogs
LED lights for exterior and interior

R1 concepts drill/slotted rotors (factory fitment) and painted factory calibers (black)
Tein CST Coils
REAR RCAS

Additional info:

Title in hand. Last oil change service was done on 8/26/11 at Lexus of Westminister. Timing belt service was done at 74060 miles on 8/03/10. All major services (such as timing belt replacement) were done at a Lexus dealership. Minor services (such as oil change) were done at dealership or elsewhere. I have receipts of all services.

THE Good:

1) AC blows cold
2) Radio/CD player works perfectly
3) Navi works great
4) Speakers are still functioning well. However, 1 of the passenger door speaker is about gone but I bought a new factory one and plan to replace it if I have the time. You can do it yourself also, it shouldn't be too hard.
5) Retractable roof still works great
6) Interior is about 8.5/10. You will find normal crack wear on leather seats; no tears however.
7) Exterior is about 8.5/10. Some minor dents and rock chips (I think there's like 3 of them but hardly noticeable)


THE Bad:

1) There's a scrape mark on the rear driver-side fender that's not too noticeable but you may have to repaint it (if it bothers you). See pic below:


2) CEL lights are on because I have MEGAN Test Pipes installed. At the time of installation, I only installed one O2 Simulator but I just bought another one from Megan so they should prevent the CEL lights coming on. I also have the factory catalytic converter if you want to put back the stocks back on. YOU WILL NOT PASS SMOG. UPDATE AS OF 9/27/11, I put back the stock cats, there is no more CEL and will be getting the car smog due to Registration Renewal for 2012.

3) There some knicks here and there on the wheels. I've had the wheels since 2008 but I took really good care of them. There is some fender rash on the rear driver-side wheel since I'm sitting pretty low. Easy to fix though. No bents! and I never curb rash the wheels.

4) There is a crack on the bottom of the front lip. You can't see it unless you go under. Easy to fix however.

Spacer pic on the rears:



Pic of fender rash:




Open to serious offers only. Low-ballers will be ignored. Take this beauty and enjoy her for many years to come. I encourage those who are very interested in this car to swing by and check it out and I'll let you test drive it. Feel free to ask me any questions.

See Recent Pix below:







New pictures as of 9/07/11

Here's a video I made just to show that the car is working condition:

I think that sums it up. I'll keep updating if I forget anything. If you need additional pix or info, feel free to request.

Bump price dropped! 20 K OBO. On a side note, I put my stock cats so there will be no CEL and will be getting smog check soon since renewal registration for 2012 has been paid.
