Thumbs up Well, getting another SC!

Well, after numerous debates with the wife-to-be, I am picking up our black on tan 2002 SC430 on Monday. I was actually holding some hopes on getting a new RX8, but after taking a drive in the SC and seeing the look in her eyes, I really had no choice then to sign the dotted line :P. I will make sure to take some pics next to my 98 SC when I get the car.

Congrats to you man. It's a nice car. I hope you still wave to us SC300/SC400 owners. Hehehe.

PS. You know, maybe we should join SC430 and SC300/SC400 forum.

Of course, I will probably not even end up driving it, which is fine with me, I like the style of 98 more then the 2002. We were debating between the SC430 and the Volvo C70 (haha, I know).

Well, we were out last weekend and some guy was really interested in the truck and I gave him my number and he called on Wednesday and we worked out a deal where I ended up making $2k off of the deal, so we let it go. For some reason, the boys in Detroit love their Range Rovers, Landcruisers and X-5's. Go Figure.

Thumbs up Congrats

So you're gonna have an SC300, GS430, AND an SC430?? Damn, I'd like to see that garage! I saw a freshly waxed black SC430 the other day and man was that paint job bling bling. It looked sweet. I guess you won't have to worry about changing your SN or anything...

Well, I finally picked up the SC430 today and to my suprise the management of the dealership let me pull my 98 SC onto the showroom floor, alongside our new black beauty, to snap a photo. I will hopefully have the photos developed tomorrow and get them posted ASAP.

Default another lexus

Hey Gang,

I am getting another Lexus too. Not a SC430, but a SC300 or 400. I am trying to sell my wife daily driver. 96 Honda Del Sol. I am looking to get a high mileage SC300 or low mileage SC400. SC300 will be transplant with 2JZGTE. SC400 will be enhance with custom Twin Turbo setup.

I dont want to mess with my LS400 because that is a nice car and its my daily driver. I can play around with my SC and Cobra.
