I just bought a 1997 sc400 and figured I would join the board and learn more about my new car. I drove a friends and was so impressed that I picked one up. I will get better pics but here is one for now. I think my first mod is going to be to get some new wheels.

 

Welcome, the car looks like its in great shape.

 

Nice

 

Thanks. The car is really clean. The only flaw I could find was one of the heated seat switches was bad. Other then that... not a rip, stain, leak or scratch anywhere.

 

nice pickup, looks clean. how many miles on odo and how much out the door?

 

105k on odometer and paid 8 out the door. Probably paid to much but I dont care. Iam happy with the car.

 

niceeee..great color

 

That is a good price. A lot of people here buy a 93-95 for around 3600-6000 and then end up spending close to 2k converting the lights, body style to a 97+ anyway. Not to mention spending money restoring the beat up interior too. Nice find. Where in VA are you? Im in fairfax.

 

I paid 9400 for a 98 sc300 with 125k miles, so I don't think you overpaid. Your car looks clean very clean though.

 

looks awsome

 

I think I saw this one on ebay or autotrader when I was looking. Looks nice, but I wanted something closer and with black leather. My 96 with a few more miles didn't cost me much less, but again I wanted black leather. I say "good deal" and nice car.

 

Im in Norfolk. I will be driving up to fairfax this weekend though. My first road trip in the new car.

I didnt really think I got a bad deal, just thought I could have found it a little cheaper if I had looked around some more... maybe not. I ran across alot that were in much worse shape though, so I jumped on it and Im glad I did.

Thanks man

I dont know if it was on ebay but it was definetly in autotrader. I found a few that were a little cheaper but were also far away. It appears a got a pretty dedent deal and didnt have to go to far. Im happy with the car and the deal.
