I bought a 2007 SC430 with 11K miles on last year with a clean title from Mike Love in mint condition for $30K. My wife gets a kick out of playing Endless Summer with the top down

$33K seems a little silly even if it was still brand new and untitled.

I'm so tempted to submit an offer of $5000, but I don't really care for red.

I wouldn't get near that with a ten foot pole. Barely used like that means cracked everything.

33K a little bit high. 20K more reasonable.

No kidding. Same topic came up this week in the LS400 forum, the poster regrets buying the low-mileage grandma special, since he had to replace everything to get it working 'right'...

Saw that! 33k would be reasonable for a 2k mile SC. It doesn't even have the desired black leather!

I bought my 97 SC4 with 99k miles. I think I'd much rather buy a higher mileage one that's had all the damn bushings and mounts already replaced. I've 125k miles on my car now and have had to replace the front suspension, motor and tranny mounts, and rack n pinion. It still ain't right yet.

i'd rather buy a stupid high mileage SC430 and either swap a 2jz or do the Tundra motor like Daigo Saito. Can someone say 1200HP?

eBay. Just search for highest price first.
