Honestly its going to come down to what you like and what you want. So you choose. Its all going to cost you money to make it look hot, drive nice, be fast etc. same goes for any "tuner" car.

The SC has way more aftermarket support than the GS..

GS is more for the VIP 4 door look and the SC is more for the sporty 2 door look I guess. I like them both just about the same. Only reason I got a GS is because of the baby and now I really like the car.

Your kinda spoiled because you get to choose between a soarer and a aristo ha.. Damn you Canada!!!

i dont know man im really getting iratated with this guy.. The only reason why i would drive all the way down there is because his car is worth 1500more so i guess i can drive plus i like road trips.. but it just makes the deal seem fishy.. :S

Ask the seller to meet you 1/2 way. perhaps s/he doesn't want to because his/her car isn't reliable and don't want to be stranded on a highway????

due diligence...

The first and third pictures of the Aristo are not of the same car. be careful. The first one looks pretty rough and it's dark blue. The third shot (exterior) is charcoal gray and looks much cleaner. If you have any bad feelings about the owner of the Aristo, you're best served to not do business with him.

I was going to say the same thing. The 2 cars pictured (front/back view) are 2 different cars. The first one is more of a bold blue with the factory 7 spokes, and the 3rd picture its more of a greyish-ice blue with 5 spokes. And the engine bay picture, it looks like the paint around the shock towers is black or dark blue. Did you mess up posting the right pictures or are those actually the pictures of the "Aristo"? If HE sent you those 2 pictures, I'd think it was a shady deal, I mean its obvious those 2 pictures are different cars.
