Pictures of NEW SC3 INTERIOR
I work for Toyota/Lexus European Headquarters in Brussels, and since my wife 'confiscated' my company car (Landcruiser) for taxi duty, I was looking for a 'daily driver' that would be appropriate and 'politically correct' considering my job (my '89 911 was becoming too conspicuous). So, a couple of months ago, I picked up a black/sandstone '92 SC3 - always liked the SCs!
The car was in pretty good condition overall, but I have been following the CL forum and have been drooling over some of the member's cars (CleanSC, CytricAcyd, TopSecretT, etc).
So, I decided to start on a discreet, elegant modification project in line with the SC's original character and nature.
I started with the INTERIOR and called on an old friend and business associate (www.Autostop.gr) to execute an interior design I came up with, in Full Conolly Leather (Seats, seat backs, full door panels, dash, etc). They picked up the car on a Monday from Belgium, drove to their workshop in Holland, disassembled the interior and sent the pieces to their head office/factory in Greece. There they made new patterns, sent everything back to Holland where the interior was fitted again. They fitted seat heaters in the process. Three weeks later, the car was delivered back to Brussels and below are the results.

Next step, Lextech clusters and Kenwood ICE/NAVI setup.
Thanks for looking, Soto

Thats a beautiful interior. You can tell the door panels look fuller and better than the original vinyl wrapping. The style you used for your seats is interesting. It reminds me of very expensive luxury sports cars. Only thing, now the seats look above and beyond the rest of the interior in detail level.

I like the Lexus logo on the rear headrests (pic #5).
And, this is way off topic, I know, but I couldn't help but notice your Omega Speedmaster pic on your fototime webpage. If you're interested in what other watches Lexus owners wear, see thread: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread.php?t=72165
