So after sellling the silvia i decided i was pretty much done with 4 cylinders for awhile. I wanted something a bit more comfortable.

I picked up this SC300 from a dealer out in Alpharetta. I didnt get a SMOKING deal but i got a good deal.

1992 Lexus SC300
1 Owner (im the second) Car from Florida
Previous owner worked at Lexus and did all maintanence
111K miles (super low for a 92)

Yes i know it needs a drop, i will be ordering some Tein suspension in the next few days. The wheels are temporary, might remember them off my Silvia.

Plans are to repaint it, fix some of the interior (has all the typical SC problems like the needles being burned out on the cluster) put a system in it, lower it, 97 conversion with new wheels.

thats it.

not a fan of the color of the pin stripe, but it breaks up the all black a little bit...

The 97 headlight and taillight conversions make a world of difference.

You should switch out to the black interior as well.

Vteckidd

yeah black interior is already being purchased. i got the door panels on the way.

Im looking for a dash as we speak.

I saw one on Supraforums that had 2 tone black an tan, **** was FIRE

I think you should switch out trunk lids for one with a spoiler as well.

Stripe only looks bad b/c of the color of the wheels... trust me. The right drop/wheels and that stripe will be fine, especially if you have tan interior. I don't work in vehicle design for Lexus, but I did stay at a cheap hotel in Okinawa once.

Bolt it up - throw on the wheels/suspention and a 100 shot and call it a day w/ the subs blasting.
