Simply Great

I bought a 1992 in 1995 with 100K Miles on it. Let me tell you, there is not a more solid sports car out there. Since then, I have owned a 2nd and 3rd gen GS, and two w221 S-classes. My dad had a 1st and 3rd gen LS. Both the SC and the 2nd gen GS were wonderful cars, solid, very little probs (I drive 9-11K per year). The SC is in a league of its own as far as looks are concerned. The only car that holds a candle to this in the "regular" segment is the original Jag XK. I haven't seen that many SCs lately, but seeing them for sale, brings it all back. Wonderful power (even in the 250 hp version), great driving dynamics. For a coupe, this is one of the best produced. I upgraded the stereo as I didn't have the Nak system and upgraded to the 5-spoke chromes (a must!). I would spend the extra to get a 1998+ as you get a better engine and trans.

I really don't see myself selling it. Did I mentions the interior, LOVE IT all.

OF ALL THE CARS I HAVE OWNED, THIS SC400 IS THE BEST VALUE,QUALITY, FIT AND FINISH, AND TIMELESS DESIGN. I REALLY ENJOY DRIVING HIGH LINE CARS (1987 BMW 325,1990 CORVETTE CPE,1990 300ZX,1994&1988 JAGUAR XJ6). LEXUS SERVICE IS THE BEST I HAVE EXPERIENCED FOR REGULAR MAINTENENCE. I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THIS FINE LEXUS SC 400. I HAVE NO PROBLEM RECOMMENDING THIS CAR TO ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR STYLISH DEPENDABILITY.

I bought my mother's Lexus 400SC with only 55,000 miles on it. Paid top dollar only to find it will not hold a charge. This is my third battery in two years. Its been in the shop three times. No one can find the drain on the battery. I love driving it, but it's been the most unreliable car I've ever owned. Sorry I bought it.

Incredible Car

This has to be one of the best cars that I have ever driven, I would recommened this car to anyone intrested in a high-end luxury sports compact. This car would go great in the sports compact scene as a racer and has a massive power and style advantage over its competition.
