In your hopes and dreams.

But honestly, it's going to be hard as hell to find one. Just keep looking. Craigslist, Club Lexus, post a WTB thread.

Trying to be apart of the 120 Club I see. There's probably a lot less than 120 now because some could have been scrapped. GL with your search!

As exclusive as they are, you can build the equivalent of one with the exception of the different dash/airbag and the instrument cluster. Not that doing a conversion (and partial restoration) is cheap but neither is buying a 97 SC 5-speed.

However, if what you honestly want is a real one it is going to be difficult though not impossible.
