It's gotta be a soarer with lexus badges. They didn't make a RHD SC as far as I know, and I can't imagine anyone swapping for the cloth interior as there are better options to save weight. And I don't see anyone going out of their way to install a rear wiper. Pretty sure those side mirrors are Soarer mirrors too.

It's definitely an interesting car, and a pretty sweet choice for a first car. Welcome to the forums. Any plans for it in the future? How much did you end up paying for it?

I could've sworn they did but I did a quick google search to confirm and I actually had trouble finding those mirrors on a stock soarer. You most likely are right and those mirrors are probably aftermarket.

Those mirrors are after market, they are actually covers that goes over the original mirrors. I have a set sitting in one of my parts box waiting to be installed.

Nice car. Do you guys in BC drive on the wrong side of the road? BE a bit odd driving, looking @ the shoulder of the road. BARBARY: That 67 396 Chevelle be worth a whole lot more than our SC's @ the moment, but if we sit on them for 40yrs they might catch up. LOL.
