I've been looking around for a SC and I came across this nice 99 in NJ w/ 51k miles and its in near mint condition. Its up for $12,750. Is that good or bad. New to the SC world. Check it out, tell me what you think.

if you buy it around 10k i say don't mod it at all and just take care of it. now it is was any other SC in average condition for like 3-4k i say go all out and mod.

^^^^agreed

this would be a great daily driver , would last forever.

Price is a bit too high id say because its a sc300 and not a 5 speed.

If it was an sc400 i would say jump on it.

good luck

Its a very clean car and you also have to keep in mind what you plan on doing to the car.

If I do get a SC I plan to lower it and put rims on it. Maybe exhaust and a intake. Mostly cosmetic stuff. I dont want to turbo it, thats what I have my GS for.

I would offer them a little less, and try to by it now option through them. Then do the above things you listed and drive it everyday.

I bought my 99 SC3 with 48k miles for $10,500. Everything is damn near perfect on it. Very much worth it. I would try to work him down to the $10k range but I wouldnt feel bad paying a little "more than it's worth" for something in such great shape. Enjoy your unmolested ride, and then mod the crap out of it after you've put some miles on it

wow so clean, nice find. you need a new grill though, seems like it's got something going on in there. Overall, very clean. If you're considering a daily and wanted to buy a 2009 or 2010 accord or camry, i would take this over those cars.

Nah, not a fan of either. I already have my X5 as a daily, I just want a SC.

All that car needs is a new grille insert. Get a new one from Lexus... not expensive and will make your car look fresh.
