Default Wtf!!!
Well, last week I paid off my SC300 and got the title in the mail today and it turns out my car is a 99 and not a 98 according to the VIN # and what the title represents. I am actually really happy about that, but I can't believe I am such an idiot to miss such a thing. I know the dealer (Lexus Store of Lexington), represented the car as a 98 and I guess I owe them a thanks for hooking me up!! I will probably kick myself in the a$$ for a few days, but oh well, could be worse.

For a double check - is your steering wheel 3-spoke or 4-spoke?

You got 99 for sure - you are very lucky. They only made 3-spoke in 99 and 00. It was the last real change to the SC.
