Ok, about to buy another sc300. It's a '94. All keys are missing but the car itself is perfect... what do i do? Is there an easy way to replace the key that won't bust my bank? I am new to the site and thought this was the best place to ask my question. If not i apologize. Just looking for some answers

Reason: spelling
Most decent locksmiths can cut you a new key.. but best bet is to have it done at a dealer, because you are going to need a new transponder installed in the key, and a new chip installed in the computer... no real cheap way out.
The key serves as your very important stuff to run the car.There's a special form entitled with a specific car so if it's lost,nothing to do but to spend money again.
screw the damn dealer. i got quoted $1600 for new keys and flasheding the ecu.
flashing the ecu is a must if you don't have a key. anyhow, you find yourself a Locksmith in your area and see how much they'll charge you. it's going to be around $400 flashed with key. also make sure they are certified.
