The best thing about this car is that it is built by Toyota. The next thing is that it is about the best looking since the XKE Jag. The next best thing is that it says Lexus.
COSTLY BUT BEAUTIFUL

I purchased the car in 1997. I have owned it for only 6 years and the repairs have become quite COSTLY. Both passanger and driver window motors had to be replaced ($700 each), alternator ($750), heating unit ($400), Compressor ($350). oil changes ($70), timing belt ($700). Other than the costly repairs, the car believe it or not is reliable. The ride is incredibly smooth and powerful enough to blow past truckers when needed. For a 1993 model this car can still compete with today's 2003 models. this car is destined to be a classic.

I love my 5 speed 300 like a child. I have treated it very gently, and it has been the finest car I've ever owned in return. I suspect I will have still own it beyond 150,000 miles and be equally happy. It's simply beautiful! Imagine paying $60M+ for the new model? It's not even well designed like the 300/400!

I purchesed my 93 SC300 via eBay sight unseen for well below retail. I have put about 15,000 miles to date and spent about $4000.00 in repairs and maintenance. The largest expense was a whole new a/c system costing $2300.00 a few months ago. I do not take the car to Lexus, they wanted $750.00 to repair the power tilt streering wheel that I went home a fixed myself. The car runs and drives beautifully. I have had a few high-milage issues as stated above, but for what i paid I still get tons of compliments and really enjoy driving it. My next car will be a new SC430. The warranty makes all the difference.
