Buying the Lexus SC

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the Lexus SC for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before buying the Lexus SC, read what the figures say and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the SC

Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Under the hood

No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.

Best uses

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.

Living with the SC

As a sports car, it puts the driving first and the luggage second.

Try before you buy

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the SC for a week and see how it fits your life. A test week in the SC tells you more than any review.

Which one to look for

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

What it costs to run

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Let us know

Tell us the model and the dates, and we reply with an offer.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a Lexus SC from us first.

Buying the Lexus SC

Does CarmaCars sell the Lexus SC?

Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.

Can I rent a Lexus SC before I buy one?

Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.

Where do the figures come from?

Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
