Rob B Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 I have always loved this car and have found one that I might make an offer on. What are you thought's on the asking price listed below? 1999 SC 400 Silver/Black Leather 67K Car looks to mint and is a two owner vehicle. Asking price $16,900 ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
option00002 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 When I first read your post my gut told me $12k is market on the car. I then peeked at KBB and it suggests $12k. Further, in my area I would argue SCs do behind book. When it all comes down to it though such things are a value judgement. If the seller is the second owner with maintenance records dating back to new one might step up and pay a premium. Good luck! It sounds like a fine example and is a great year for the model.

alexus93 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 That is definitely a good price. Be sure to note that with 67k you are around the corner on some work for the car. Another 15k miles and you will need a new timing belt (recommended at 90k). Check out if this SC suffers the chronic issues that plague the rest (they aren't anything drastic, but worth a look). These are listed here: http://www.intellexual.net/faq.html#06. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grnsc40095 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Rob B, KKB listed price: http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/PricingRep...QuizConditions= If you are able, go look at the car and test drive it and have a lexus dealership/mechanic look at the vehicle. Also mention to the seller what member alexus93 indicated in the post above. Good Luck with your decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
option00002 Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Apologies. I thought it was a 1997 even though you clearly indicated otherwise. I agree with the other posters as it appears to be a fair number. While I would encourage trying to knock off a grand or so it is not outrageous by any means.

SCRider Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 To tell you the truth I think it's way too much. If KBB says the car value is 12k then I think for it to be a better deal, the car should be around 10k. That's just my opinion, I know that this car is very rare but be more patient I'm sure you can find a better deal out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
