Doesn't matter if they did because mods don't really increase the value of a car. Someone was trying to sell a '92 SC300 in the same area a couple years back for $13,000 because he listed off all the mods he had and added it to the KBB value. Don't even consider this car, man. Buy and build yourself for less.

i'd rather get kaotiqs old car at that price (the blue JIC greddy T78 1jzgte in the for sale forums). Also if you can't find a SC you like in your area don't be afraid of shipping. It isn't as big of a deal as most people make it out to be especially if you really find that car you fall in love with. Or even driving out somewhere and driving it back

I'm not going to do anything. Just wanted some insight on this particular one. You don't see to many hooked up SCs around this area. He got it posted in the dealer section but it's being sold by an auto detail shop.

Try telling that to the Honda community. K swapped 92-95 civic goes for $12,000 all day long around Tacoma.
