Looks clean, I've been looking at some of these 300's/400's recently down here.
The only thing is the price is kinda high to me, isn't the USD almost equal to the CAD right now? or is that a fair asking price. And its automatic... they're hard to find in stick. -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊
QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

CDN$=0.80US$ right now so 8800US$...not bad since car prices here are slightly high due to availability and transportation costs. these people specialize in imported US cars. it probably came from FLA or CALI. AUTO was on 80% plus of these models and STD are expensive if you can find them and VERY EXPENSIVE to maintain and service. peace r. -------------------- |

I think that is way to much for that. yea its a V8 but it was almost 200k miles. 8800 is alot of money for a stock 95 you can find better cheaper.
O just saw its in km not miles. that kind of changes things since idk how many miles it has. This post has been edited by ra65_22re: Feb 14, 2009 - 9:50 AM -------------------- |

You can probly find a better deal somewhere else. I've been looking at these (going back and forth between the 300, 400 and mr-2) and I've seen some as low as 5-6000.

Yeah, there are many SC400 selling for <$5000 with lower mileage here in the Bay Area. And do you really want the automatic V8 instead of the manual I6?

Foo, you can get one of those with less miles for $3.5k. I have seen them on Autotrader. The body styles appear to be all the same from 92-98 or whatever.

yeah man, i was looking at this car when i first started. one thing i can tell u is sc400's only come auto, unless u plan to do a 5spd swap later urself.
what ur paying is too much, believe me. i say luxury car with good power, but bad gas mileage. ur choice, if u plan to mod id say go VIP style with 2jz swap |

I found my friend a 1992 sc300 for $2000. It had 16x,xxx miles on it and was in decent shape. You can find them for around $3-4k. I honestly would rather have a 300 since they have a 2jz. HP numbers arent much different, gas mileage is better for the 300, and quarter mile times are very close to the same.
Other than that, there is more aftermarket for the 300 since like I said it has a 2j. It is your call though, and that one does look clean, I just couldnt see myself spending that kind of money on that car.. |

I'd say shop around for a better price.
Over here there is one for sale for $4000 obo, clean title, clean interior/exterior and the only thing the guy did was chrome the wheels. I'm thinkin of gettin it myself. And majority are automatic, a bummer, but a swap is just more fun for ya =) Good luck man. -------------------- Pandelica 2.0 in progress. |
