SC vs IS vs GS vs N/A Supra!!
Okay guys,I know we are always comparing our SC's against other makes but what about our brothers here This thread is not intended to make ClubLexus members revolt on each other but to see the benefits each model has.Im speaking of 2JZ powered cars here so sorry SC4/GS4 guys.Which vehicles are faster,handle better,get better MPG(not that I give a rats ***),look better(sure to start something).Im speaking of bone stock here as any vehicle can be made fast with the proper funds. I didn't know where to put this but since I own an SC I figured what the hell.
Also which vehicle responds better to mods?? Let the discussion begin
remember this is all in good fun

Each car is a different animal.
I owned the IS first - I loved the handling of it - I could whip the rear end at will and not freak out that I can't control it - it also had four doors.
Highway crusing was "ok"
SC to me is just a two door GS.
Big, heavy, but roomy as all heck and awesome on long trips / highways.
I'm still learning the car.
I've never driven a NA Supra - but I've driven a TT before - and other than power - it's on par with the SC.
If you asked me which was better...I'd say SC, than IS, than NA
The NA is not as luxurious as the SC - and IS is a four door - so...SC wins.

yeah
supra na, sc, gs, is i say.
but the sc and gs look the best.
as for handling i think the sc takes the supra because the ride is so much smoother and when i was riding in my friends na it felt like it had more body roll, but that could of been a matter of a lot more miles compared to my 97 or his driving.
