In this video I’ll be talking about the beautiful Lexus SC 300 (1992-00). I'll dive into the common specs, common quirks/things to look out for and how to test drive it.

Most of the stuff I discuss will also apply to the SC 400/Toyota Soarer as there are no major differences between the two chassis other than the engine/transmission.
