I showed someone a picture of my car the other day and they asked if it was a Mitsubishi. Anyone else have this problem? Like, really?

My God... My woman used to really **** me off with either slamming the door like a 18" Sub @ 10K RMS, or barely closing it to where the doors won't lock lol.

Default you know you're an SC driver if...

1. ...you're always looking for a 2nd SC if you've only got 1.
2. ...you've spent more on maintenance than you paid for the car
3. ...you've spent more on gas than you paid for the car
4. ...you've spent more on wheels/tires/suspension than you paid for the car
5. ...you're craigslist searches include 2jz, w58, sc300, sc400, supra etc

this may already been mentioned, but there it is again anyway

You know you're an SC driver if... you squeak around for months because you can't justify paying $300 a piece for control arms.

Any time you get called a 240, MX6, TL, or anything else, just remember--there's a reason they look the same.

Lexus was the first, the SC body design was groundbreaking, everyone else copied.

Including Dodge, when they designed the Vipers front end.

I'm sure these have been mentioned but...
...If you turn on the defroster every morning
...if people's flipout on door hinges
...if your always searching for parts on Craigslist
...if your drink don't fit in cupholders
...if people ( mainly ricers ) just stare at your car/you when you're parking (any place ,any time ,anywhere) and/ or ask if its supra ; asks if it has the same engine as the supra
...people try at least two times to close the door/ look at you when you tell them "it didn't close " without even looking at them
...are always on cl during breaks
