This car is in great shape. Nearly the entire service history, other than a few things over the years, was done at Lexus dealers..


If you are looking for a stock, well cared for MONSTER of an SC 400 that is a reliable, solid everyday driver that you can just get into and cruise, this is a great choice! If  my car  were a load of garbage i'd be selling it for $4000 or best off on the street in Orange County New York and would sell it in a 1/2 hour...  I know what i have here, and its worth the little bit of extra money.. if you want to come with cash and make an offer perhaps i'd be into that.. 

If you want an awesome car and you are on a budget this is a no brainer... Reasonable to maintain at Lexus dealers over the years, but if you want to save some money on the maintenance you can take it to any Toyota dealer as well... 

I have meticulously maintained this vehicle since i bought it from Palm Beach Lexus in 2002, it had about 40,000 miles on it. Some old guy traded it into the dealership towards a new SC 430. I was lucky enough to have been servicing my 1993 Lexus ES 300, 5 speed,  and met the guy trading it in who introduced me to the salesman and the rest is history. The ES  V6 with the manual 5 speed was ok, but i really needed a V8... Doesn't everyone!?!!?

 i have averaged about 300 miles per tank of gas give or take over the years, and am just driving it less and less these days, so its time to pass this gem on to someone who can handle her for the next 200,000+ miles. 

Although i have been lucky enough to not have had any major problems with this car over the years, i have had every service either mandatory or recommended, done without hesitation. Every thing from  ignition coil to the timing belt have been replaced as the mileage indicated it was time to do so along with all regular maintenance and all scheduled services.

Palm Beach Lexus completely replaced and updated/upgraded the AC system when i bought it, so its still blowing cold. they also re-painted the from bumper that started peeling about 1 year ago, lasted longer than i thought (see pictures). 
I had the sound system overhauled,  all in car speakers (unless i was ripped off, because i cant say 100% what is in there lol)  are JL audio & MB QUART, i replaced the 8 inch nakamichi sub with a  10 inch sub in the rear deck that is a JL also. The stock head-unit was changed to what was at the time a top of the line 6 disk Pioneer Double din unit that is still towards the top of the line today.. (see pictures)

Tires still have plenty of time on them, just need a rotation soon, i think the breaks are about 50%-60% or so, i usually have the breaks done when there is at about 15%-20% left... i have the tires rotated and oil changed regularly.. 

This car is in a different class than any one i have ever seen on ebay or on the road. I see these cars pushing 200,000+ miles and are usually just sorry looking sad sun damaged cars that already look broken down, but this car is solid, garage kept, drives strong and still  has the POWER!   Really!    No test drives without cash in hand. I have the title. 

This is one of the few SC 400's out there that if you wanted to you can just concentrate on correcting some of  the minor flaws in its condition,  most if not all is just normal wear and tare for a car its age, but you can see by the pics the white pearl paint still pops and the spots that need attention are small and pretty minor... As you can see from the pictures the carpets, seats and interior are all pretty clean and in good shape, better than most. i have been asked many times if i had a new interior and seats installed.... but i guess it could use a shampooing. The driver seat, arm rest, and steering wheel could use some leather conditioning...  The driver seat and the console have the most wear along with the steering wheel.  

What i would recommend is to buy this car, have the stock wheels chrome dipped and have the few spots that need paint professionally re-sprayed and lastly have a really good wash, wax, and a paint buffing/revitalization done... If you want to go the extra mile some of the suspension could be upgraded to more expensive high performance parts, but i really love the ride and how it drives... plenty of pull and corners and handles very well... 

This car has most of the little issues and quirks & things that all the SC's have, some moisture in the driver side headlight (even though they were just both replaced with brand new ones) there is some funny business with a few lights in the dash, like the check engine light is on for no good reason, the only way to get it to turn off is to have the O2 sensors replaced, which is not necessary and would run about $1000. There are a couple little dings, nothing major, couldnt even get them to show up on the pictures, the runner on the driver side (pictured) needs to be pulled, i just dont have time... also, i know the cars looks great in the pictures but i havn,t even had it washed or cleaned in a few months, so yea paint and everything looks great! 

email me if you want to see the car, of have any questions... i'll add to this description if i can think of anything else.. oh, yea, look at the pictures of the engine, i have never cleaned the engine, it is just in THAT GREAT OF SHAPE! 

i had 40 really awesome pictures but could only upload 24, so that's why there are only pictures of 3 of 4 tires/wheels, not because 1 is missing or grossly damaged. The car is perfect for a turbo or supercharger!!

Toyota adds 1.6m cars to Takata inflator recall list

Tue, May 24 2016

As part of the Takata airbag inflator recall expansion announced by NHTSA earlier this month, Toyota has listed an additional 1.6 million cars that will need to have inflators or airbag assemblies replaced. This brings the total of recalled Toyota, Scion, and Lexus vehicles to 4.73 million. Other automakers will announce their expanded recall lists this week as well. This round of recalls affects some but not all vehicles with the following model names and years: 2009–2011 Toyota Corolla and Matrix 2006–2011 Toyota Yaris 2010–2011 Toyota 4Runner 2011 Toyota Sienna 2008–2011 Scion xB 2007–2011 Lexus ES 2010–2011 Lexus GX 2006–2011 Lexus IS To see if your specific vehicle falls under recall, write down your VIN and go to toyota.com/recall; you can also check any recalls, Takata or otherwise, at safercar.gov/vin. Toyota will inform owners of affected vehicles by mail. Depending on the model, either the inflator or the entire airbag assembly will have to be replaced. Due to the number of vehicles that have already been recalled, it may take some time for the necessary parts to be available. A total of 11 deaths have been attributed to the faulty Takata inflators, and federal investigators now know why the parts are prone to failure. The state of Hawaii was the first to sue the auto supplier, with more states expected to follow. The 17 other automakers are required to announce their additions resulting from the May 4 expansion this week, so expect more of the 35 to 40 million vehicles to be listed soon.

Watch these Super Bowl car commercials [UPDATE]

Sat, Feb 2 2019

On Sunday, February 3, the New England Patriots take on the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl 53 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Some will watch because of the storyline of the old-school dynasty facing off against the new-school wunderkinds, but a large chunk of people will solely be watching for the commercials. Lucky for those who slot into the latter category, many of the manufacturers release their super bowl ads ahead of time, or have simply opted to release the commercials only online. Scroll down to see what car companies have already shown their cards. Audi Audi goes the comedic route in its clip for the Big Game. It starts with a grandpa showing his grandson a gorgeous Audi e-tron GT tucked away in a garage before he's shaken awake. Turns out he was just choking on a cashew in his cubicle at his boring job. Dodge Dodge does what it knows: create enough smoke to punch more holes in the ozone layer. Set to "The Devil Went Down to Georgia (the Super Bowl is in Atlanta, get it!?), a Challenger SRT Hellcat widebody, Charger SRT Hellcat, and Durango SRT are seen ripping through a city, leaving a trail of rubber crumbs in their wakes. Genesis Genesis has not yet released a commercial prior to the Super Bowl, but it is the official luxury vehicle of the NFL. Because of this, Genesis is hosting a fan experience for 10 days before the game. It will showcase the brand's cars, offer games, and have photos opportunities and autograph days. Hyundai Jason Bateman alert! Hyundai is one of the few companies to hook a major celebrity for its advertisement, and the casting is perfect. Bateman plays a doorman who takes people to various terrible events in life, including root canals, the middle seat, and shopping for a car. The ad centers around Hyundai's Shopper Assurance, which is Hyundai's new method for car shopping. Jeep An old 1963 Jeep Gladiator finds its strength in the crusher and transforms into a a new 2020 Gladiator, with a firm declaration that the nameplate is officially back. Kia Through Kia's commercial, a young boy wonders out loud what it'd be like if the millions spent on Super Bowl commercials were used to help others.
