The build quality sold me. I had a Total of 4 SCs over the last few years.

I came up driving VWs, Rabbit GTIs, Jetta GLis, and Passat GLXs then I went through a couple of Accords, and wanted a Acura Legend Coupe. I've been hooked on SC300s from back in the day of Freaknik - 93, 94, 95 - the best years. Well, I stuck in traffic, and looking into the car infront of me trying to figure it out what it was, BAMB a 93 Supra (((SUPER SEXY CAR)))... Well, I knew my @ the time 19 y/o self wouldn't have the money anytime soon to buy one. Well as time went on, I know I wanted something super kick-azz, grown-man-style, a panty-wetter, so I kept my eyes open and last month, came across it and bought it, 93 SC300 - black, 5 speed, 2JZ, and needs some work....

Blew a headgasket in my car so I was shopping for a new one... say a sc at the lights on my way to prom and loved it. Went and purchased one 3 days later. Wish I would of grabbed a 300 or a soarer though.. Going for a na-t and its a pain. Not many sc300s here in Canada though

I didn't have the $25k to pay for a supra so I got an affordable alternative

As many people have stated... cheaper than the MKIV Supra. I have always loved these cars, just never in my price range when I was a teenager. Just doctor's and lawyers owned them.. Now I prolly have 20K in it... and I am just getting started... The modding never ends!!!

I'd seen SC's on and off, over the years, but never really paid much attention to them... mostly because I assumed they were out of my price range for something I'd use as a daily. I was looking for a new car a few weeks back, and came across them again. I read about the generally great reliability, good build quality and after I found out the increased power in the 98+, I was sold. Beautiful car, and not too common around here.

I've had a 300ZX for 10 years, now. I built it myself to approximately 500rwhp, 6 years ago. Absolutely bulletproof, IMO. It'll be 20 years old next year, not a rattle or a squeak, and people still think it's brand-new. Like the SC, the Z32 has aged very gracefully.
