Default You folks have another New SC Owner

Hi everyone,

After a very long run on the First Gen GS forums, I'm happy to say that today I picked up a 2000 SC400. IMHO it's a beautiful car. The color is Silver with Black interior, silver badges. I think it definitely fits my style better than the '96 GS3 did.

My first mod will be to swap out the stock wheels with the 5-spoke GS4 and spacers from the old car. Because of all the great input to other members and wealth of info here; I'll also be looking for a set of Supra NA Eibachs and MKIV shocks (anyone with hookups in SoCal lemme know).

I'm hoping this car will bring me many years of fun and reliability.

Now, is there any way to change screennames without losing my posting count? Here are some pics of the new car, all stock.

This car will bring you many years of enjoyment. Welcome to the SC forum

Hit up O.L.T. about changing your name

NIce Kevin! If you got coilovers, you could of actually had fun driving the GS, but this car will make you happy because its smaller.

Congrats on having possibly the "Newest" SC on CL!! Damn, I still can't figure out how you found a 2000.

Rare beast, and MINT. Nice find. Probably the most desirable SC you can find stock.

That, or a '97 5-speed.

Congrats, take care of her, she's a rare one indeed.
