For Sale By Owner. Location: Columbus, Ohio
Are you ready to own a piece of luxury? This 2002 Lexus SC 430 is in excellent condition and offers a perfect blend of performance, style, and comfort. The owner has invested over $6,500 in pre-sale preparation, including maintenance, repairs, and refurbishment, to ensure the vehicle is in excellent condition and ready for sale.
For those of us who are long-time owners of classic cars and drive them on beautiful, sunny days, we are aware of the expense over the years of keeping them structurally sound and mechanically reliable. The owner has replaced almost every mechanical part prone to wear and failure and has had the vehicle inspected by the Lexus dealership. So, what is unique about this magnificently presented example is the knowledge that the work to keep it mechanically reliable has already been completed, giving the buyer peace of mind.
To most of us, the most important aspect of owning a classic car is confidence in reliability. It would appear that the expense invested in this car will go a very long way towards building that confidence.
Why Choose This Lexus SC 430?
Key Features and Options:
Location: Columbus, Ohio
A Desirable and Collectible Classic: This 2002 Lexus SC 430 is the first model year of this iconic luxury convertible, making it highly desirable and collectible. It features distinctive disk-style center caps, adding a unique touch to its elegant design.
Lexus Inspection: This SC 430 underwent a comprehensive multi-point inspection by Germain Lexus of Columbus, Ohio. All necessary repairs and maintenance were completed, and all inspection items were rated as "OK," with no further repairs or maintenance required. The inspection report is available, confirming that the car is in excellent mechanical condition. Buyers can rest assured that this vehicle has been thoroughly reconditioned, refurbished, repaired, and inspected by a certified Lexus dealership.
All regular maintenance, as well as required and anticipated repairs, have been completed:
Why This SC 430 Stands Out: Unlike many other SC 430s on the market, this SC has undergone extensive reconditioning, including maintenance, repairs, and updates, ensuring it's in top-tier condition. When considering purchasing an SC 430 that hasn't received the necessary repairs and maintenance, even with low mileage, be aware that these SC 430s will eventually require the repairs, and the buyer should add that cost to the purchase price.
Important Advice for Buyers: Don't buy an SC 430 without thorough maintenance and repair records. A Carfax report alone is not sufficient to guarantee the vehicle's condition. A Lexus dealership has inspected this Lexus SC 430, and it comes with complete documentation of all maintenance and repairs, providing you with peace of mind and confidence in your purchase.
Convertible Top in Excellent Condition: The top mechanisms on the SC 430 are known to be expensive to repair if they fail. Fortunately, this vehicle's top has been used sparingly, being put down only 6 to 8 times a year. As a result, the top mechanism remains in excellent condition, providing reliable operation and peace of mind.
Complete Documentation and Clean Title: This SC 430 has complete maintenance and service records, including a detailed list of all maintenance and repairs with associated costs. The car has a clean Ohio title, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free transaction.
Cosmetic Details: As noted in the CARFAX report, the vehicle's body has a few minor scratches and a tiny, almost imperceptible dent on the front left fender. The dent resulted from a car lightly bumping the front left fender. The dent has been left unrepaired to demonstrate how minor the "accident" was, emphasizing the vehicle's integrity.
