1995 Lexus SC400 review from North America
"Love at first sight!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. I had to replace a crack tail light that the dealer reimbursed me after I found a new on on Ebay.
I also discovered that the 12 disk CD changer was missing so I found another one on Ebay for under 200 bucks. I also replaced the stereo head with a new one for under 50 bucks.
General comments?
The seats were practically brand new when I got the car and the interior was mint clean. Only one owner was discovered after I ran a search on the car.
This car was a garage car and probably was used as a second car.
I also own a Acura Legend coupe LS. My legend has a much aggressive take off than the sc400 but for the smooth ride, SC400 is hands down the better ride. Having the honor to house both cars in my garage because they were, and still are, true classics, in my opinion, and what is being built now just doesn't cut it for me.
I'll be holding on to these fine classics from Japan for as long as I can drive them.
Peace-
