Default Baroque Red Metallic

I was checking out the SC400's on ebay and came across this 1998 in Florida.

I think the color is Baroque red metallic. I love this color and it seems to be
quite rare. If it had black interior I might be tempted to become a two SC400 home

I saw a SC400 in Calgary (98! I know!!) when I went to Lexus of Calgary in this color. I always loved it in photos, but in person, its pretty whatever, just looks purple. My red definitely looked better than it IMO.

Andora Beige Metallic, now that's a different story! many dimensions to that color

I've seen a few this color before. This one looks Super Clean! I would be tempted too since this one has VVTI and the 5-speed. Good everyday and then take out my 93 as a road car.

Another vvt-i in Canada!? I dunno man, that makes it what? 7!?!? haha..
It does look really clean though.
Well fyi, I'd consider selling my '99 for the right price. That way you don't have to go through the hassle of transporting it here and importing it.. lemme know!

A rare beast for sure!

Both myself and BCSC have VVT-i SC's, so it might be a tough sell!

The Canadians are cornering the market on these rare beasts.

I'm surprised it didn't sell. They lowered the BIN to $6990.
It looks like it would of been a great deal on a 98 for someone.

This color looks great in person. I saw one for the first time 2 days ago and wondered if it was a factory color or not.
