I don't have any pictures currently, but I must say I miss my Champagne 1993 SC400 more than I could ever explain.

My 98 GS300 makes it slightly easier though.

Nice cars Jon! I don't have a picture of it, but I kinda missed my '92 Isuzu Trooper. I remember I had to slam on the pedal to gain momentum when driving up a hill or else we wouldn't make it at even 65 mph. We also called it the bass box!

Yeah the GN is one of my favs too, always said I would own one, just to put some ultra classy 19" staggered Fiske or HRE wheels on it and lower it! plus they just look so GANGSTA in black!! LOL

another GS300 pic that was back in 98 or 99.

I sure miss those cars, I did not realize the potential of them until I got rid of them.

Ali made me think of my first Gen. I drooled over that car since junior year in high school! (95). I finally got one in 2001. There is nothing like getting something you always wanted!! no matter how long it takes!
