A good buddy of mine bought a low-miles, single-owner SC400 about ten years ago. Burgundy-over-beige leather. That engine had a fairly unique sound and the car was quick. I too would be interested in another small-displacement V8 in a modern Japanese sports/touring car. I wouldn't BUY one but I know at least two people who probably would if it was made in Japan, cost less than $50k, and be available with a decent manual or automatic gearbox. (No CVTs) After that the same buddy had an E63 AMG with the 6.3 (6.2) V8 engine. It sounded incredible but my buddy never really warmed up to it like he did the SC400.
