What about the rest of you guys - always garaged? Does ANYONE ever ride in your back seat? Is this just a weekend/toy car OR your primary vehicle? Will you drive it in winter/light snow?

I am considering the SC430 but it would be my primary car. I have an ES300 now and would trade it in. I'm wondering if I would miss the practicality of the ES300. But the SC keeps calling my name like a siren!!!


* Sorry, hit edit instead of quote...
Always garaged other than weekend golf. My son always rides in the back seat with us. Not comfortable for him, but he would prefer to ride uncomfortably in the back seat of the SC rather than having us take the other car. Sometimes, we have another person in the back with my son. VERY uncomfortable, even for me, because I have to move the driver's seat way up. My SC is my primary vehicle.

as a general guide line to keep my ride clean:

blk/blk: wash it twice a week.

silver/blk: once every 7-10 days...

on the SC, i would def get the silver, or blue/blk if i want something darker..

Gekko,

My SC430 lives on the street when I'm at home, I'm afraid. Central London houses with garages are like hens teeth - but rather more expensive.

It's a total luxury for me - I use it for getting to and from work and for having fun with my wife when we can lose the kids at weekends.

The family machine is the Renault Espace in the picture.

I can get one or other of my kids in the back of the 430, but not both at once!
