Lexus SC 300
 
lo all, i juz test drive a 1993 lexus sc 300.

now i know u all think 1993 is old

but the car has 96500 miles on it, and its in perfect condition.
i think i will purchase it in the next couple days.
couse i am bored of my civic, and wont spend the time and money to "mod" it. truthfully "modding" the car is a waste of money.

so im going to juz buy a coupe that has 225hp n 215touqre stock:P

and its xtremely luxurious.

if i purchase it i will post pics ASAP.

what does everryone think of this idea?
is there any well known probs with the luxus SC 93'?

ty for ur input.

what do i think?? i was just happy to have my first set of 4 wheels on the pavement moving at 18 years old... a 1$ Ford Bronco II that needed about $250 in work to make it safe to drive.

so a underpowered civ may be not much fun, but its not as expensive at the pumps, and such, and no need to buy a new car just yet IMO. but it is a lot of freedom even if its not another car.

Ah, the Bubble Lexus. The car that put them on the map.

Overall, it should be pretty good. Hopefully it has its maintenance done and is in good condition. The 3.0L motor is a bit under power for a luxury car. But then again, it is a Toyota so it should run forever.

How much are you buying it for? (If you don't mind me asking.)

one of my most favorite cars. Now this car you should mod. Cus its engine is quite good friends with the supra.

Yablokov 10-14-2005 03:28 AM

XDXDXDXD yay!

ya i think it is VERY mod friendly. but affording gas may take my mod money:P

oh and im getting it from my dads close friend for like 4800$ the car is worth$6500 in its current condition.

so im gettinga very good deal.

Yablokov 10-14-2005 03:41 AM

oh and how is it friendly wif the supra?

i heard that its got the same engine or something. and putting 500hp turbo boost wont hurt the engine

and u dun even got to change the tranny.

it's got the same 3L inline-6 as the naturally aspirated supra.. by any chance is this onne of the rar SC300's that came in 5spd manual? cause if it is.. jump on it right away!!

Banchi105 10-14-2005 02:22 PM

The SC300 was available in a 5spd.

It was the "sportier" SC400 that was not.

Good car if you end up getting it.
Or just stick with your civic until its wise to put down more money on a car.

Making wise transportation decisions is extremely difficult for all car enthusiasts, though. :twisted:

the lexus i am buying is an auto :( but no worries its still super powerful.

and the lexus is a much better car then any civic. couse of car quiality. and it was built in japan, unlike the civic; it was built in the good ol' US of A.

If it's located on the east side, check for rust...

Yablokov 10-15-2005 10:07 PM

sry everyone, nvm about the lexus.

my dad said "i dun feel right about this purchase".

couse he thinks 18mpg is not enough mpg >< + it olny takes premium :(

so i tink im stuck wif the civic until i find a lexus wif a weak engine:P
