Needed new leather after 76,500 k's - who does he think he's kidding? Leather should be good for twice as many k's.

It's a lot for a '94, Katrina. It's the content of the description which is really over the top though :-)

I did not think the '94 SC300 came with leather seats? Therefore, he has put in aftermarket leather work and is selling at a loss. Either he has come in to a lot of money or his financial management needs some work.

The Buy-It-Now price is reasonable puffery given he will only get the auction price anyway. He says below that there is no reserve and that he will sell for $18K negotiable) which is also the price of an SC300 of the same age and claimed mileage on a dealer lot.

I am wondering about the "fuel pressure" readout on the instrument panel.

And it had the battery recharged. But it certainly is a nice looking thing!!

Yeah, the "battery recharged" ed me too. Robert's right about the seats, they look nice but I question the $5000 pricetag (not that I'm an expert in these things). He also lists something like traction control, is that feasible on the 3.0l?

Does look good nick, ill agree there. But there are inconsistancies with what the guy is selling.

He said he had the leather reupholstered right, 1400kms ago. He also bought the car 1100kms ago. ??

You would definately want to have a mechanic look at that car as well, im not saying he is trying to hide anything by cleaning it all and having everything made to look like new, but.. whats he hiding? (Sure he might just want it to look sweet... but.. whats he hiding? >.>)

Im sure the price tag is justifiable for someone though.

(Please excuse my crummy spelling)

Heh, thats over 3 times more than I paid for my JZZ31, quite a bit more than 3 times once you take into account the exchange rate... and mine is 2 years younger with similar milage.. OK, no leather in my one...

Now it is not even for sale any more! I think you are right Graham, he must be reading this.
