Rate the car above you thread.
I guess i'll jump in on this.
I will rate Habious's SC as an 8.0. It is a prime example of a tasteful SC430.
Add In all the electronic goodness (I love electronics) and It is just plain and simple awesome. I would have bumped you up a half point or so If you changed you wheels..
lol, I think i'm starting to sound like a broken record.
I haven't started any of my *planned* exterior mods (still working on the engine) but heres what I got until bodykit time rolls around.
I snapped these after the turbo install, and I have cleaned up the engine bay a bit since these pics. After its working reliably I will make it all shiny and clean. Oh and the A-pillar isnt finished yet. Still need to paint and trim the stock leather, and add in third gauge

Ali SC3- I like the sc, tints could do some good
why is the timing cover removed? im not too sure but if it is for a reason then good, thats like -.15 of a point tho lol but, if you had like the adjustable ones, even if its set to 0 thats a plus haha
lower it!
anndd possibly get different tail lights, its my personal opinion, but im not feelin the chrome outlining.
and my turn...oh jeez..




this sub blew, so i got a alpine type R instead..gotta take pics of that.

standard radio with this too....

oh, 1loudlx, is that a flat paint job?
i like the overall look, im not too savvy with the whole off road scene, but i think the truck looks pretty diesel.
9 from me, i really like the color scheme, spotlight and the brush guard

yup, got the truck repainted in november the flat finish was a game time decision after seeing it sanded down. I never want my truck to shine again.
blair i think your truck looks awesome with the matte paint and new front bumper.. now you just need the rear bumperS haha
i give it a 10.. you perfectly achieved what you wanted your lx to be

you can't diss the chrome outlinin.. lol everyone upgrades to 97 tails.
I like the es, looks very clean. I forgot to take a picture of my sound system.
i like how your sub sits in there.
1LoudLX, you have an awesome truck. If I had to start building an LX today I would hope to have it looking as good as yours.
Cathafer, The IS-f is simply ridiculously awesome and your color combo is on spot. so I would give you a 10, but I have to subtract a point for the gearbox.
totally missed the 'point' of this thread to give you a value lol
id say 9 for simple cleanliness, but since u say it needs some work to completely be up to your standard, it of course, cannot be perfect. 5spd, big plus and the na-t...soo jealous cause i drive an ES of all cars lol.

They all get 10's..really you all have some sweet cars. I like how everyone has different looks (tuner, VIP, touring and DUB) not just a cookie cutter crew. Keep up the the good work can't post mine yet... I will be at Carlisle this year. Stay tuned.
Blair; the flat finish is sick! I been partial about flat paint until I saw a flat black Lamborghini Reventon..The stealthy look works well with some cars, your car is definitely one of them..
