Cool Pics of my $2700 Sc400





Here it is.... I know how everyone one here spends money like water on there Sc's.... the grand total of mine after all repairs plus wheels and tires is right under $2700.... it has 101k original miles.... and probably what i payed for this is what you guys probably pay for in upgrades.... to my point, i figured i would post pictures of my car to show its not junk.. so i would at least be able to get some answers to some of my problems... i jus dont like spending money like water.....my motor is having performance issues... any help would be helpful... thank you.....

$2700 is a lot less than what i payed for my upgrades. definitely looks like a clean car for the $ though.
