Strong and Good looking. Only problem
is electrical stuff. Things get tricky
when wires get old and dirty.

1992 Lexus SC 300 2dr Coupe
I bought this car with 125,000 miles on it and I have had it about 2 years and it now has about 131,000 miles on it. Never had a SINGLE issue/problem with this car and it drives like a dream. However, there is a minor oil leak or transmission fluid leak that I have just recently noticed so I will need to have that fixed, otherwise for being a 13 year old vehicle I cannot believe the … exceptional reliablity this car has given me!

Awesome Car!

1992 Lexus SC 300 2dr Coupe
This has been the most maintenance free
car I have ever owned. I have over 140k
on it now, and I wouldn't hesitate to
take this car across the country
tomorrow. It's super reliable, comfy,
quiet, smooth, and has lots of style.
There's got to be a reason that Lexus
didn't change it for 10 years. The only
thing I might do different if I were to
buy another one, would be to get … the
SC400 to get a little more HP, and a
little smoother ride. There's little
difference in weight and economy between
the two...

My SC300

I bought mine new in 1992 and it remains my favorite car. Have an 07 ES350, nice car, just not SC300 nice. The SC is still rock solid and sexy looking and sounding. This car is a modern day classic.
