They did, but I think it is super rare. There are only a few people on here with OEM RSP paint, and that's counting SC400 and 300, auto and manual. I think I remember seeing one guy on here with a OEM 97 5 speed RSP. If you search you may find his thread. His car is really sweet. It has a nice drop and some sweet gunmetal painted Blitz wheels.

Does anyone know exactly how many of each color combo they made on the 97 5 speeds? I have the platinum silver with black which I know is pretty rare. I've only seen other ones on this forum.

Woah, just read one of your posts from 6 years ago. (Had that SC since '00 i see) How much did you get it for back then, and how many miles were on it when you bought it? Thanks!

It's not a right hand drive, the picture was just reversed. This is my Pop's manual 97 SC300. Not sure how many miles he has on it.

I voted for RSP due to the impending 5 speed conversion that's going to come with the new motor!!

That. Is. BEAUTIFUL! I had to wallpaper it...
What is the paint code for it?

Edit: nm, I found it - 3H3. It says its for a 1989-1990 cressida though...
