A week ago there was a sc300 posted on craiglist in slc. There were no pictures and the guy said he was moving so he would take 900$ for his car. On the phone he made it sound like the interior was trashed. Stupid me did not take an hour out of my day to go and look at the car, so now i am hitting myself on the head.

The only reason I did not go look at the car is because i already have 2 sc's, wife's mazda, 4 runner, and my daily Ls400.

Here is the car now :

haha the cluster needles even work

 

That would of been a good deal, even has the cup holder, oh well live and learn.... everything happens for a reason who knows maybe another will pop up with black interior

 

Dang, if I knew it was in that good of shape, I would've flown out there and picked it up. It's hard to beat an SC under $1,000. If only I could get a MKIV Supra or Z32 300zx that cheap...

 

lolz you have a lot of cars.. its arrrite, we all miss out on a good deals left and right

 

He made it sound like the interior was trashed? WHy would he do that seeing how the interior is near mint! The exterior could use a little TLC but yeah that was totally worth 900 bucks!

 

how do you know its the same car? what did he say to make you think the interior was trashed?

 

I called him and he told me he sold it to that dealership because no one else would buy on short notice, keep in mind i live in salt lake city where there is no market for coupes comparatively speaking. He said the interior needed work and it showed signs of being 20 years old. I just did not think twice because a lot of "NON" Lexus fanatics interiors go to *****. oh well you live and learn. I am thinking about calling the dealership and telling them i will double what they bought it for. I am guessing they paid no more than 750.

 

You lose some and you win some. It all the balance of life.

 

yeah, u def missed out on that one..

 

Wow that interior looks like shi@t! That must've been real **** to say the interior is crap. Wish I found a deal like that!

 

In Miami we call that slippage

 

hmmm you sure the dealership didnt fix it up?

 

wow...but you had no way of knowing at the time. if that would of been me, I would of asked him to snap a quick few pics with his cell and send to me. but hey, it's water under the bridge now.

 

Ya there were no pics posted and he was moving that weekend so he said come look at it.

No way the dealer has done anything to it. first: the car was posted under dealers name the day after I spoke with him. Second: The carpets are not even shampooed, I do not think a dealer is going to go through all of that trouble with hard to find interior parts and not even pay there little shop guy 8$ an hour to shampoo the carpets.
