ive come across a black automatic1998 sc300 that my dads boss owns, he's looking to get rid of it. Its got 100 thousand miles, but he's the original owner and its always been serviced at the lexus dealership. also the interior is in excellent condition, he's looking to get 6500 for it, is that a pretty good deal?

Sounds like a good deal.

newyorksc

sc.Fred

southernsc

Some people pay that much for nice 92's with that many miles. And you're getting VVTI with that car! GET IT!

I have to concur with my fellow colleagues. I would snap that up fast before someone else does. Helluva deal!

alright, it looks like i'll be buying a lexus.
i made a mistake when typing that, i guess its actually a 1997, i dont know how much that would affect the value.

anyone have any suggestions for mods? i'll have about 2grand to work with as soon as i buy it.
after a few months when the weather gets nicer i plan on getting some black rims for it too.

Off the top of my head I would say take it to the closest lexus dealer and have them check it out. Get anything that needs replaced, replaced and make sure its in tip top shape. After that its up to you... 2 grand could go a few different places. New rims and tires...HID's ( or if you want to go bulb replacement, get the silvania silverstars )... Suspension parts....Coilovers....Exhaust....

But if your looking for top of the line parts, 2k isnt going to get you all of it. Id probably start with a nice set of coilovers. I made the mistake of getting wheels and stereo equipment...now I wish I would have done it different. Oh well.

Congrats on the car, They are great. Keep it taken care of and its got alot of life left in it. Blacks a nice color too

thats a really good price for the car specially a 98

It's still a good price for a 97 SC300. As far as the mods go, do some reading and some thinking. But before you do any mods, do as LuCiA said and make sure it's in tip top shape first. After that, let the mods begin!!! I've always felt that wheels make the biggest difference on a car. Just MO.

Just be sure to post pics of your new ride!!! CL peeps love pics!

Even as a 97 thats a good deal. What part of KS you from?

I've got a black 98 Auto as well, with just over 100k miles. There were some interior updates to the 98+, and the 98+ cars have the variable valve timed engine as well. 97+ has the revised exterior. As far as an overall value, buy it :-) Definitely a steal. NADA on my car is 16k, and I picked it up for 12k. That was a steal. Yours is just flat out incredible.
