1998 Lexus Sc400 Base Coupe 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Pomona, California, United States
|
1998 Lexus SC400. 1998, 99, and 00 SC400's differ from earlier models in that they have variable valve timing, which gives 40 more horsepower, a five-speed automatic transmission, and different ground effects (body panels) to reduce drag and enhance styling. They are also more reliable as most of the electrical and component problems have been worked out. These are the premium years for this model and they are more valuable and collectible than earlier models.
This car is Renaissance (Arrest Me!) Red, and it is all original and complete. It is in excellent condition, and will continue to perform well for many more miles. It runs and drives excellent. Everything works. No leaks. No check engine light. No funny noises. All dash and climate control lights are working. Less than 10,000 miles on new Pirelli's. This car has the power of a big cruiser, and handles like a sports car. It has all the comforts you need for a cross-country trip, and is economical enough to be driven every day (I do). It has power everything, but just a few things that come to mind are: Power Windows, Power Seats, Memory Seats, Power Door Locks, Power Adjustable Steering Wheel, Climate Control, Power Mirrors, Cruise Control, and the list goes on. I bought the car in 2001, when it had 8000 miles. I am the second owner. It has been well cared for and has never caused me any problems. I had the major service (timing belt, water pump, etc.) done in 2007 when it had 117,000 miles. I had a 1992 SC400 before this one, and I drove it 215,000 miles before trading it in on this one. They are excellent and reliable cars. I am selling it because I just bought a Jaguar. |

Lexus regrets not doing 3-row CUV before RC coupe [UPDATE]
Tue, May 12 2015UPDATE: The source clarifies that rather than planning new small cars and crossovers, Lexus intends to rely on the ones it already has in its lineup. The text below has been revised accordingly. Automakers try to give its dealers (and by extension, their customers) the vehicles they're asking for. In Lexus' case, that's come down to a sport coupe and a three-row crossover. The Japanese luxury automaker ended up prioritizing the former with the launch of the RC coupe, but in retrospect, it feels it should have gone with the seven-seater instead. This according to Toyota's North American chief Jim Lentz in speaking to Automotive News at its provisional headquarters in Plano, TX. "In hindsight, if I was making this decision 10 years ago, seeing what I see today, the three-row [crossover] probably would have been the better play to come out first," Lentz to AN. "Strategically that's a more important vehicle to have than necessarily a lower volume, higher priced image product." Crossovers and SUVs represent big business for Lexus, whose five-seat RX (pictured above) is its biggest seller. The more compact NX is off to a solid start as well, but the brand's only three-row offerings are truck-based sport-utes like the GX and LX. Even without the three-row crossover, however, Lexus has been performing admirably. Rising sales have it trailing only BMW and Mercedes in the US market for luxury automobiles. Adding a three-row crossover to target the likes of the Audi Q7 and Mercedes GL will evidently be the next top priority for Lexus, but it's not the only plan the luxury brand has for the near future. Lentz indicated that the company plans to rely on its lineup of near-luxury and entry-level luxury sedans and crossovers moving forward, but isn't interested in going after the Mercedes CLA and Audi A3. "Luxury cars cost a certain dollar amount for a reason," said Lentz. "I don't want to cheapen my cars just to offer a lease that's $20 a month less."
Dubai Police conscript 467-hp Lexus RC F into high-performance stable
Sun, Feb 8 2015The Dubai Police Department has added yet another... um, let's call it unconventional, cop car to its ranks. But rather than an ultra-exotic, mid-engined masterpiece, it's the V8-powered Lexus RC F. Finished in the white-and-green color scheme typical of Dubai's fuzz, the RC F was purchased alongside another Toyota product, a utilitarian Toyota Land Cruiser. While the off-road-ready SUV's purpose seems clear, enforcing the emirate's laws in the areas outside the city, the 467-horsepower Lexus will likely follow in the lead of Dubai's other high-performance offerings, appearing more for publicity and public relations than actual law enforcement. Check out a couple shots of the new cop car up top.
Lexus talks LFA successor
Sat, 09 Aug 2014Did you just miss out on purchasing one of the 500 Lexus LFA supercars built between 2010 and 2012? "No big deal," you're probably thinking, "I'll just wait until the next time Lexus builds a supercar." Well, we're afraid that you'll be waiting quite a long time. And by long time, we mean about 30 years.
That's according to a report from Bloomberg, which indicates that yes, Lexus is looking at a follow-up to the V10-powered, carbon-fiber-bodied LFA.
"Akio [Toyoda] believes that every generation deserves to have a car like an LFA, so we're building an LFA for the generation we have today," Lexus Executive Vice President Mark Templin told Bloomberg. "At some point, there may be another special car for another generation."
