Isn't it a joke that the SC is still running the 4.3L?

not really, the GS had the 4.3 until this year. But yes, now that the LX has been revamped, the SC is the oldest car in the lineup. The LX went 9 model years roughly the same chassis

SC Nav > every German Nav. THus Corolla Nav makes German Nav seem like Rand McNally.

Any other old cars we want to pick on today?

...AND no factory Satellite Radio option.

At least there's a very nice aftermarket option (Vaistech). So nice that my dealer sells and installs them.

But, if it's any consolation...it's really nice tape deck! lol

If you think of all the type of people who buy the newer sc 430's the tape deck makes alot of sense.

I still think the Honda/Alpine NAV system is primitive than the Toyota/Denso system.
