Default its time to move on

Ive decided to move on from my IS350 I am sticking with the lexus family because I bought a members SC400 some of you may know him as CamberSC the IS was by far the best car I have ever dealt with and I am very pleased with it I wish I could keep it but my license has been suspended for about 6 months now and I still have another 10 to go before I can drive again and I still have a payment on the IS which now just sits in my driveway collecting dust anyway heres a nice goodbye shot of my car and then a hello shot of what I have moved on to
My old lexus
after I won the pursuit (all lexus drag event)



My new lexus

Damn mann, what'd you do to get your license suspended? Milton's SC in your hands should be pretty sick still. Good luck

Luxury wise yes it will be a down grade this SC is going to become a drag car which is what I originally wanted to do with my IS I did it I achieved the fastest 1/8th mile and 60' times in It and one of the fastes 1/4 mile passes in it plans for the SC AT LEAST a 28x10.5 tire and a powerplant that will put me in the 700hp range

haha then hopefully my SC will be done by the pursuit next year if it goes down and if it is done just wait and see how loud and fast that thing will be I was talking to one of the guys at the track that was rolling around in the golf cart and he said that its only "2500" to rent the track for 4 or 6 hours so even if it doesnt maybe something could still be set up..


Quick Reply: its time to move on
