This week Canyon State Classics brings to market a 1998 Lexus SC400 in Platinum Metallic over Black leather. This was Lexus' Flagship sports car of its day and is powered by a very healthy 290hp 4-cam 4.0L V8. This 3-owner SC comes to us recently out of long-term southern ownership and is the beneficiary of a new timing belt! The facelift SC400's really stand out with their upgraded exterior body panels and revamped Lexus V8 that increases power output 30hp over the previous years. Here is .....

The body on this SC is in very good condition overall. The car is finished in gorgeous ''Blueish'' Platinum Metallic which really makes this car stand apart from most other SC's. This Lexus just got a full professional buff and wax and really shines!! The sheet metal is all arrow straight and this car has never been hit and is Carfax certified. The car does have some expected rock chip touchups and a few scratches- notable imperfections are pictured above. The car is riding on factory Lexus alloys with fresh Hankook performance tires. The optional color-matched rear spoiler is a great compliment to the rest of the facelift body that only the final couple year SCs got. Overall condition of the exterior is a 9 out of 10!
The interior is in very good shape considering its age and the vehicle mileage. The interior is all in like new condition with exceptionally nice wood trim throughout. The beautiful black leather is perfect throughout the car. All interior accessories work perfect. A/C will freeze you out of the car. Power windows, roof, sound system, cruise, heated seats, and everything else work perfect. The car even has a automatic power adjusting steering column, talk about top of the line!
Mechanically, this Lexus runs GREAT! The car starts right up and shifts as smooth as silk. With the 4.0L engine the car really gets up and goes. The A/C blows ice cold and the car stays cool even in the 118 degree Arizona heat. Carfax notates some service and the timing belt was replaced in the last 250 miles! We put the car through our shop for an inspection and replaced the following: lof, wiper blades and filters. This car did not need much- a testament to how well it has been cared for over the years! This Lexus is ready to drop the top and start enjoying immediately!
The car will include 1 key, all original books and manuals as well as the full size spare and all tools and jack.
All in all, this is one heck of a nice car to drive on your daily commute or on that special date night with someone special. If you have been searching for a very capable sports car to work or play the search ends here. The car has a clean Arizona title. This car is also CARFAX and AutoCheck certified to have never been damaged!
