Personally, I'm all about the black on black. With tints, they look amazing. Prlwhite, where did you find the lex at? Private seller? I work at Lexus of Bellevue and the prices they charge for used trade ins are absolutely ridiculous. 00 4Runner for $27K??? Yeah, stay away from the Stealership (did I just say that? )

I looked up the value for this SC4 and came up with $9,200.
I think you could bring it down to around $8,000. Some people
mentioned like $6,000, I'd like to know where their shopping!

I bought my '93 SC400 last year with 152,000 K and the window
sticker was $9,999. I got it down to $8,000 and consider that a
good deal (Massachusetts).

Well, if this is how this dealership treats their customers...wonder how it treats their EMPLOYEES?
And besides, customers don't have to pay these inflated prices. If the dealership can't move them on their terms, they will have to lower their asking prices, period.

Lexus of Bellevue is actually really great to their customers and employees, (Christmas parties, bonuses, good benefits, nice employee areas etc) but like is common to pretty much all dealerships, the prices are jacked up. Buy from a private person if you can. That's all.

PrlWhite, I work in the detail center, in the same area as the technicians. I don't know if I remember seeing your car. It might have come in on one of my days off or got sent to the service center. What'd you apply for?
