You know you are a Lexus Sc owner when.......

There is a long list of cars, three to four times the price of yours that you would consider a major DOWNGRADE to have to drive.

my 2 cents...

you know youre an sc driver....

when everyone gets amazed seen your wheel going in and out when you put the ignition key in...

when car fans hear you and think that a supra is coming but then they see its you

when you go inside by the passanger side ahahah

when you buy parts online and you cant find them for lexus but you do for toyota supra

when you go to the autozone or toyota and ask for parts for your "supra" instead lol (i tend to do this lol)

by the way... the ppl who thinks my car is a 240 i just punch them on the throat....

ive been pulled over by the cops and asked if i was turbo and what mods i have and i was scared but he said that he admired my car and that its really cool and to have a nice day lol

One more I thought of...If you keep your Lexus SC car parts inside your room, or closet, and the other "junk" goes in the garage...

You know your an SC owner:

- when you've spent more on repairs than the car is worth

- when you've spent more on upgrades (paint/body kit/DD head unit) then you will EVER be able to sell the car for

- when your wife calls it "the money pit" and you still pore money into it because you love it so much

- when you can't make up your mind on what wheel/tire combo to go with because there are so many choices and they all are cool looking....

Never thought i was ever going to own an SC but when i came across mine i already knew what to watch out for, but still managed to get my head smashed in the trunk and hood -__-'

You have to Dukes of Hazard it into your car because your door handles don't work.

When you show someone your car and they say:
"you got rid of your turbo mk3 supra and got this?'. and your reply is
"yeah, i upgraded".
"but it doesn't have a turbo"
and all you can do is smile knowing its only a matter of time.

You know you're an SC driver when you're in someone else's car and you wish you were in your car because you start to notice whats better in your SC

If people ask you when you re going to swap in a 2jz into your sc400.

Or if people ask/tell you your car is "basically" a supra.

I hate it lol

You know youre an SC driver when you put the key on the on position and the telescoping steering wheels adjusts itself to your settings. Our cars have better features than cars that are 10 years newer.
