What A Ride!

I was very lucky to have a fast-talking Canadian talk me into buying a '95 SC 400 that, when I first saw it, was on blocks in his shop and being cannibalized for parts. "Buy it," he told me. "You won't regret it. I'll thrown in a timing chain." With the usual replacement of belts and brakes, and a heftier mod with electric fan and alternator, I have a car that is quiet in traffic, smooth as silk in acceleration, and a joy to ride. Let me give a shout-out to Rising Sun Japanese Auto on S. Lamar in Austin for their attention to detail and for helping me keep a really special ride in great shape. Best of fortunes to all you gear-heads reading.... I'm gonna go straighten me out some asphalt!

Great Car

I purchased mine from an individual who takes excellent car of cars just like I do. My SC has been a wonderful car. You can't beat Lexus quality. The 'swinging' cup holder is pretty useless but there is little else with this vehicle that I don't like.

Loved my Lexus

I loved this car. I had it for four years - never a day passed that I did not think how fortunate I was to own it. I spun out in the rain on the freeway and crashed the rear off side into the central concrete barrier. The wheel was torn off and the wing crumpled, but apart from that no other damage to the car and hardly any to me so I think its body strength is great. I am thankful for it. My only complaints are a too small rear seat, and miniature trunk. As for looks, well, it is beautiful and as, I saw someone else describe, a piece of rolling sculpture.
