I am possibly about to pull the trigger on a 1997 sc300. 135000 miles. Originally priced at $8000, he is now down to $6500 before negotiation.
The car looks great. 1 scuff on the front bumper, a spot of rust on the trunk lid edge. Is rust there common? easily fixed?
I test drove it today. Unfortunately we also got our first snow today so I didnt get to put it through its paces. there were no unusual noises or anything though. I wish I had the VIN so I could beg for a Carfax... Maybe I'll ask the owner.
EDIT: Just got the VIN: JT8CD32Z5V1000817 That was fast!
I have a couple of questions:
Is the price fair?
What else should I look for on this?
Am I going to be happy if I buy this thing? ;)
Thanks. I'd bet you'll be hearing from me a lot if I go through with this.
