Every time I look at my SC300 I think to myself: What a beautiful machine. Exterior and interior look fantastic. I only paid $15,000 in 12/2002 for a SC300 with 75K miles having a $50,000+ sticker price. Looks and drives like new.

I bought the '96 SC 300 in August of '99 as a certified pre-owned car from the dealership. I saved a bundle from what I would pay for a brand new SC, but paid a little more than what I would have off the street from an individual. Still, as a package, it is the best car value I have ever had. I will not likely buy any other car again. Its performance, handling, reliability, comfort and value are second to none. I have had friends and co-workers who have owned BMWs and Mercedes, and they complained often of problems with reliability and value. Not with my Lexus certified pre-owned. What a car!!

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.
Great, reliable, and unique car.

I've owned my 1997 SC300 for a year now, and I do not regret buying this car one bit! Starts right up every time! I haven't had one issue besides wear and tear. Wear and tear: blinker light and a seized caliper, so even for a 19 year old car, its very well put together. I do regular maintenance and baby it. I recommend buying a SC with low miles or well taken care of, it will be worth it. Update 1/08/17** 88k had the check engine light come on and was only a O2 sensor so it was a easy fix. Still going strong
