It would be a good idea to stick with the SC since you owe it back now.

As an ex IS owner, I can tell you it is nothing like the SC in durability.

Glad you're ok. Worst looking wreck I've ever seen with no injuries.

At your age, I think the insurance might break you regarding the Supra. I think loyalty and prudence might lead you back to an SC.

Wow. I'm sorry for the loss and I am glad you guys are okay. 4 years ago, I walked away unscathed from a similar accident on the canyon roads as well. That car is such a rarity

But, like how some others have said, you owe your life to Lexus now as yours was a good loyal car that kept you guys safe til its very last minute.

pull the black interior out if you can, you'll make some decent $$ off it. i see ls400 brakes too, pull them out too.
