Default SC300 on GT5?

Anyone got an extra they would mind donating to me on Gran Turismo 5? Been searching for about 10 days for one, didn't see one yet. :/

There are both Toyota Soarer as well Lexus SC300 in GT5. Interestingly, both are '97 models equipped with 2.5TT out of the factory.

It is not difficult to obtain one as they pop up quite frequently at the used car dealership. I do, however, have a few spare SC's/Soarer's if anyone wants one. PM me.

The SC300 in Forza 4 was the only reason I bought the game. I bought like ten SC's on there.

I need to open my copy of GT5 so I can get that Soarer. Are they expensive on there?

Forza is a great game... I just don't understand why they make you pay for all that DLC... I mean the Porsche pack is like $20 worth of Microsoft Points for cars that should have already been in the game!

Nope, sorry I only have one of each. I did have an extra SC300 before my PS3 YLOD'd on me, I actually had a lot of cars I wanted already. That was before they made seasonal events significantly more difficult

Yeah, that is the one thing that bugs me about Forza. There is way too much DLC that costs money. I've gotten a few free cars like the 2013 GS, but I don't want to pay $2 for just one car. They could have released a version that included all of the DLC and I would've been somewhat satisfied.

I actually wouldn't mind individual car purchases as much as I mind the whole car pack... sometimes you only want one car out of the car pack but have to pay $10 just because you want that one car.

Then you realize $10 could get you a couple gallons of gas and you could drive your own car to a proper destination.

I have a couple, including the Soarer. To be honest, it sounds like poop when you have all the upgrades on it.

Yeah, I feel the same way. Out of all the DLC packs they released, the only cars I wanted were the Scion FRS, BMW 850i, and the Lincoln Continental. They could at least throw in some new wheels and body kits with the DLC pack. I think you can now buy each car individually. My sister bought the SC300 for $2 on the Marketplace.

$10 won't get me too far in the SC but it is more fun than Forza. If only I had a steering wheel with a clutch and 6-speed shifter I probably leave the real SC in the garage and just use my virtual ones.

That's disappointing. Can you lower it and put aftermarket wheels on it?

You can, and it does look nice afterwards. I mostly drift on there but just the annoying wining noise really gets to me. MK4 Supra, on the other hand, has a real nice touch
