'99 Millenium Silver/Black SC300
It's time for me to move on. Originally this was my project car/occasional daily driver. The car is 100% stock with the exception of 4300k H.I.D.'s and 25% tints all around. I currently have my spare wheels on, which are multi-spoke SC400 from a previous year.
STATS:
- Millenium Silver with Black perforated leather
- Gated shifter
- Has the premium sound system with DSP and 6-disk changer.
- 112k miles
- TITLE on hand!!!!
MODS:
- 25% Tints all around
- 4300k low beam H.I.D.'s
- cutout for clutch master cylinder
THE GOOD:
- Quite possibly the most reliable car I've owned. It is mechanically PERFECT. I just completed a 300 mile round trip recently with absolutely no problem.
- Lexus smooth and quiet; no creaks or squeaks.
- Gets the expected gas mileage. 20 mpg combined hwy/city. 26+ highway.
- Oil is changed at Lexus on time.
- The brake pads and rotors were changed 3000 miles ago.
- Electronically, EVERYTHING works perfectly. The sound system is surprisingly pretty damn good for not being Nakamichi.
THE BAD:
- The front bumper needs to be repainted. It is probably easier to replace and repaint with a new bumper.
- The area behind the rear driver side wheel has been backed into and dented as a result of a hit and run. I went to a Lexus recommended body shop and it is repairable with no replacement of body paneling.
- There are about 2 stone chips that I can find.
- The rear bumper has minor hairline fractures from a rear love tap. Not noticable unless you look close.
- The right half of the climate control light is out and is common with these cars. Either get it replaced or do an LED conversion.
RATINGS:
- Exterior: I would give the PAINT a 9/10 with the exception of the front bumper, dent, passenger side scratches and minor nicks. The paint really is in good condition. A part of the rear bumper needs a touch up and I would recommend a complete replacement/repaint of the front bumper.
- Interior: I would give this a 9.5/10. There is wear on the driver's seat as you will see in the pictures. The rear seats are rarely ever used. A part of the climate control light is burnt. There is a slight chip near the volume knob of the center console trim piece.
PRICE:
$9,999

Another even better example of an SC value car. For the cost of a few minor repairs one would have a great car with all of the benefits of the SC improvements up to '99.
