I love:
-The compliments
-The looks, can just stare at at it
-The sound, nice roar from a stock exhaust and a smaller V8
-The power, turn the trac off and burn rubber (lol, that was last night for me)
-The interior looks like its from a much more modern car
-The Rarity (hardly will ever pull up next to one at a stoplight, unlike a POS ford)
-The reliability (its scared me once and the ECU died but this thing is a rock)
-To know that I own a future collectable

I love;
That mine is the second nicest in the area.
How much the car scares the crap out of people when I full throttle shift.
That I can full throttle shift and it wont blow up. Immediately..
The noise. Three tiny resonators and no muffler wins.
How good the wheels look, I want bigger outer hoops though.
That it looks like a spaceship rolling down the road.

So many to list...
One of the best looking cars ever made
Comfortable for very long drives
Comes stock with one of the best engines EVER produced
I love the dash cluster - after its been repaired
My favorite part is a love and hate...
I love that you can pick one up for dirt cheap and if you have some know how, you can make over 500 horses for under $3000 and still drive it daily with the fuel mileage of a 6 cylinder. I hate that a non-turbo MKIV Supra sells for such a higher amount than an SC when they are such similar cars. So I'm glad I can afford to play with an SC, but it makes me sad that they are so cheap when they are such great cars.

Perhaps this is off topic.. so I'll PM you.
I'd like to accomplish that tho.
For the record..
My favorite things are just about Everything!
The Electronic Tilt & Telescopic Steering, and Heated Seats primarily, along with some things that have been said already,
like the commonality between it and the Supra, as well as the rarity of SC's.
It such a beautiful car also, it indeed looks like a 2000+ model.
However, this has to be the best response haha, and I couldnt agree more..
My favorite thing about the SC:

There isn't a lot i don't love about this car.
I love:
-the body lines
-how easy it is to make a '93 look better than most newer models from other
manufacturers
-the aftermarket parts (a lot of people complain about this but i came from an old dodge
so much better market for the SC)
-the unbelievable reliability and horsepower potential of the 2jz
Most of all, i love being a broke college kid and seeing ppl on here who have a ferrari or two but still have 3 SC's.
I love that my sisters friend went to live on her dads yacht for the summer and he came over to ask where he could find her a car like mine.
I love passing Z06's on the interstate and they're staring back (i'd never own a 'vette BTW)
Also love the following associated with this car. As made very clear on this forum, there are a lot of good, knowledgeable people who love this vehicle as much as i do.

I love:
-My pristine Black interior
-95' & 96' tail lights
-compliments
-the sound of the 2JZ
-the surprisingly isolated cabin
-the ability to build a Supra for much less
-the Na-t community(I have the utmost faith in the Ge bottom end and will be pushing it when money permits)
-stupid people asking "did you swap in a 2J ?"
-the body line that extends from the top of the front wheel well, through the door, and over the rear wheel well
-independent rear suspension
-my brand new headlights
-my glass high beams
-the climate control display
-wheel wells that afford room for whatever you want to roll on
I actually like my SC more than my IS and it's 8 years newer.
