Default POLL: How many GS enthusiasts owned an SC?

My first Lexus was an SC300, and I'm about to sell it. I' m looking at replacing the family Camry with a GS300, because these cars have taken a piece of my heart.
How many of you had to give up their SC for the sedan?

I did not have to give up my SC. Bought my SC 300 in '02, added my GS 300 in '07, picked up SC 400 last year for my DD. Love both the SCs and GSs, but my 5-speed SC would be the last to go...

I had an SC, it was stolen, then I bought a GS. Two years ago I bought back an SC. Couldn't be any happier. I have the best of both worlds.

My 1SC was totaled a few years ago and wanted to stay in the 2jz family so I picked up a 1GS. I have since sold the GS, but it was a smooth car to drive with some nice luxuries.

I tried to buy an Sc but all the ones in my area for sale were junk so on a whim I bought my first 1GS I've since bought another 1GS and a ls400. Still on the look for a Sc. I've had a few fall through the cracks recently.

I never had a SC, still don't appeal to me. I have a turbo one in my lot and I still don't care for it lol. I had a 1st gen GS about 11 years ago and liked it alot. Guess I got a thing for sedans instead of coupes. Unless it's a FD3 or 93+ Supra.

Wanted a GS originally, but bought a 1JZ SC. Hated the body style and color (teal). Quick car, but really hated everything about it. The GS, to me, still looks modern and has a "sexy" body line.

I've never owned an SC. If I didn't have my GS3, the coupe would be my next choice.

Had a few z30 Soarers when I was in Japan. Bought a 3GS when I got back to the states, and a 1GS to play with. 3GS is gone and I still have the 1GS (I do miss the 3GS though).

I owned a few 1SCs and loved all of them. Bought a 1GS for the wifey and ended up transplanting many of SC mods to it. Both platforms are great, the SC was a great project when I was single. The GS is a great project for a larger family

Never had a SC, but would trade my car for a 5 speed SC, but I have a lot of time and money into my GS.
