Tyson Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Not too bad as with any lexus build quality and reliability are brilliant its just the front end that would have to grow on me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I quite like them too. Had a bit of a discussion about tuning them here http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?208481-2jzgte-in-to-an-SC430-ever-been-done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I love the rear and with a after market exhaust would have a brilliant sound track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've given serious thought to buying one, twice. The two I drove left me cold, as nice and refined a car as it is. Didnt feel anything other than its a lot of car for the money....which is quite low on my priority list. And after a lot of thought, twice, I couldnt live with the looks. I've seen a black modified one somewhere that had a meaner, sleeker look, but butt naked its a bit of a bloater IMO. Reminds me a little of the Granada Scorpio from years ago....stateside styling that I could never grow to love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kill1308 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Awful car, simply awful. There's tonnes better stuff out there for the money Someone at work owned one, said it was the worst car they've owned for a long time. Best thing to do is go and drive one and see if you get on with it, some people like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 after reading Dunks review on it, it seems that it is a lemon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 after reading Dunks review on it, it seems that it is a lemon. I personally wouldn't call it a lemon...its beautifully built and very comfortable...I'm sure a good one would be very reliable too. For me, its just uninvolving and ugly.

Swampy442 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Are we talking about the soarer or the newer shape? They were Soarers in Japan dude. There are no doubt some knocking about rebadged by the badge snob brigade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abtin90 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Never been a fan though I have never driven one either. There are however a lot of better looking cars with better/similar performance for the around the same price Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
