This 1996 Lexus SC300 was delivered new to Wilkie Lexus in Ardmore, Pennsylvania, and reportedly remained with the original owner until the seller’s acquisition last year. Power comes from a 3.0L DOHC inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission, and the car is finished in Midnight Indigo Pearl over tan leather. Service by the seller is said to have included replacing the valve cover gasket, spark plugs and wires, changing the transmission and differential fluids, replacing the rear seat, and more. Now showing just over 68k miles, this Z30 is offered with service records, the window sticker, manufacturer’s literature, an owner’s manual, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Maryland title in the seller’s name.

Originally finished in Royal Jade Pearl, the exterior was refinished in Midnight Indigo Pearl (8J5) by the seller, during which the chrome badges were also replaced. Features include a rear decklid spoiler, integrated fog lights, and the optional power moonroof, shown in both the closed and open positions in the gallery.

Factory 16″ alloy wheels have been repainted in silver per the seller, with the chrome L center cap painted over. Hankook Ventus V2 tires were fitted in 2018. Four-wheel independent suspension and ventilated disc brakes with ABS were standard equipment. Service in November of 2018 is said to have included replacing the transmission and differential fluids, brake fluid, and power steering fluid.

The interior is trimmed in tan leather with color-matched door panels and lower dash. Bird’s eye maple wood accents the upper surfaces. Features include heated and power-adjustable front seats and a 12-disc CD changer, while the seller reports that the rear seat and driver’s outer seat bolster leather were replaced.

Factory instrumentation includes a 160-mph speedometer and an 8k-rpm tachometer. The digital odometer shows just over 68k miles, about 1,500 of which have been added by the seller. The digital clock is stuck on 12:00 but shows the correct outside temperature when toggled. The climate control interface has been replaced with a rebuilt unit from Tanin Electronics, and the seller notes that the LCD screen appears brighter than the radio controls.

The 3.0L 2JZ-GE inline-six is paired with a five-speed manual transmission powering the rear wheels. Service under current ownership is said to have included a coolant change and replacement of the serpentine belt, fuel filter, and battery, as well as the oxygen sensor, the clutch master and slave cylinders, valve cover gasket, and spark plugs and wires.
