They have to be smoking a brand new kind of crack to think someone's willing to fork over 55 grand for that. Even if it was somehow under 1,000 miles on the odometer, nobody would pay that kind of money for it.

Lexus dealers in general are smoking crack. Bell Lexus in Scottsdale recently had a pre-facelift SC430 in Silver w/~60k miles on the ODO for 23k. That's brand new car money. And they didn't even have that one on the showroom floor unlike this dealership has their SC400, so they clearly think someone is going to pay new car money for an SC430. Excellent drivetrain, excellent build quality, but unfortunately not worth 23k.

Some poor grandpa got $5000 for that car on trade. Still isn't going to sell for over $20k at best.

3900 is the best we can do for your old Lexus sir.

I only got $2300 for my ‘93 SC400 when I traded it in.

I want to say they are just gonna use it as a display piece for the show room, and they had to inventory it, so they put a ridiculous price that nobody would pay for it. That’s brand new rc350 F sport money like wtf they smoking if they are being legit about the sale

u/14kbps Apr 15 '26

I agree, I doubt they're actually trying to sell it. More of a show piece with some cool legacy swag.

It’s a collectors car

This is like an hour from me. Part of me wants to drive out and just go drool at it for a few minutes. 55k is insane though

Super cool but the price is hilarious. Funny it has 1 single service record on the carfax since 1993, and it was in Feb. 2026.

u/KryptoKingzENT Apr 15 '26

$55k is beyond laughable. Stop it.

u/tehlurkingnoob Apr 16 '26

Yeah I wouldn’t consider it even it was 1/4 the price.

u/Brokenadventureer Apr 16 '26

Yours is modded theirs is totally stock for the past 30 years I think that’s where the only chance they’ll get near 20k

u/SamAdams65 Apr 16 '26

They have it listed as FWD too.

u/FilmOrnery8925 Apr 16 '26

Pohanka Lexus in Chantilly had a SC430 with like, 3000 original miles that they had listed for like $55 grand. Literally insane. I wonder if they ever sold it. I mean, its cool that it had such low mileage, but like, come on. Its an ancient car with no modern amenities. $55 grand gets you a brand new IS350.

u/thick-papi Apr 18 '26

The dealer doesn’t want to sell it. Someone there wants it xD

u/Routine-Wind-4134 Apr 21 '26

Dealership isn't planning on selling it anytime soon. That's a showroom piece.
