I've never seen documented information on the numbers by color. I've always heard the numbers for an RSP Supra and SC were crazy low like 53 of each or something like that.

That sure is a nice daily driver. Your car has 1,000 miles less than mine on it but yours looks so much better.

Been searching for while , either I am not searching well or maybe I am just blind .

Can someone point me to a verifiable production chart of SCs by colors (number of SCs per color as they came out of the factory).

I keep on wondering where the numbers are coming from like there are 53 RSP Lexus SCs on this thread . Even better if the production chart is broken into SC400 and SC300 plus if the SC300 has auto or manual trans ... all by color . That would be awesome !

May want to consider "making one of your own".....

I really like the RSP base color and ended up selecting that for the LS400 BBKs.....

There's a 97 SC400 RSP on black for sale in the facebook groups. It's on the east coast.
Search for the guy's name in any of the groups and his post should come up.

Copied and pasted:

97 RSP SC400
$8,500
Alexandria, VA Seriously considering selling my 97 RSP SC400. Looking to buy an OBD1 SC for a more serious performance build/swap. I've put a lot of time and money into this car and it shows. Gets compliments and attention wherever I go. Here is the detail and upgrade list:

1997 RSP SC400
120k miles
BFI
Brand new Supra front LCA's (PITFA)
Feal Suspension Coilovers (about 8k ago)
Relocated harness properly
Supra front and rear calipers painted RSP
SS brake lines
Supra front brake dust shields for OEM fit
Brand new OEM supra brake pads just done
New oem tranny mount
Rebuilt starter (it was a *****!)
New Battery beginning of the year
Fujin front lip
Brand new OEM headlights from lexus
Refinished fog lights
All rock chips repaired and refinished
Whole car has been PDR'd so no dents
Kamikaze ceramic coating
Xpel Ultimate self healing PPF bumper, hood, fenders ($1000)
SSR SP3 wheels 19x9.5f +15 19x10.5r +12
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires

Nardi Kallista steering wheel
NRG quick release hub
Minty Black interior (except driver window trim)
All accessories work

The cons:
Needs a front windshield
Differential bushings need replaced
Will need rear tires next spring
Typical cracked driver window trim
Needs 1 knock sensor pigtail replaced/repaired
That's about all it needs

I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting right now as far as things I've done to the car. This is a very tough decision so please keep the negative comments to yourselves. I really don't care if you don't like my asking price, it's just that...an asking price. Sure you can find em cheap, if you want those go buy them. The only reason I'm selling is so I can buy an obd 1 SC and and be exempt from emissions. I'm not desparate to sell so no low ballers. I'm asking $8,500 obo pretty firm. The wheels alone ran me $4500 (granted that was with new rubber). If you're serious PM me. If you're not even buying I don't need negativity. All positive comments and input welcome.
