Need Advice on buying an SC
Hi, I want to purchase 96 lexus sc300. I just want to know what is biggest weakspot? How is the engine and transmission in reliability? I know you have experience with these vehicles so it would be nice to hear it. How many miles can these engines take?
Also, if someone would be kind enough to tell me the name of this bodykit.

As far as tails...are you referring to tail lamps or rear spoilers?
There are 3 style of tail lamps: 92-94, 95-96, and 97-00...
And only 2 types of spoilers offered: TrunkLid Lip spoiler offered 92-96 and the raised style spoiler offered on the 97-00 models...
Of course, they can be mixed and matched however you like it...
