I have to agree, when people ask what kind of car I have, I say Toyota. Lexus is just a marketing brand for higher end Toyota vehicles. In the end, they're all built buy Toyota.

Also, I'm usually a big fan of the wind deflectors but some reason I don't like the design on our cars not sure why...maybe it looks better in person. I'll have to check it out.

The wind deflectors are a waste of time as they do nothing. They are there purely for looks, thats it.

Most people who by Soarers for import from Japan remove that crap (if installed) once it gets here. (UK)

JDM is not a mark of quality, they sell crap parts from time to time over there too.

For those that are hell bent on thinking thier cars are nothing but Lexus, does that mean you will never buy any TRD (Toyota racing development) parts for your car because it says Toyota on it ?

So you're sayin my painted rims dont look better than stockers?



vs.



Whatever man, If I could afford some new 18" Volk 5-spokes, or even 17" TT rims, I would. But being a college freshman who pays for his own car, insurance, cell phone, tuition, housing, food, everything; I was looking for a cheap way to improve the looks of my wheels, and according to this thread, people feel I accomplished this pretty well https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=137608

Grow up man, respect my opinion, dont try to take low blows just because I disagreed with you

Not to jump in on this, but incase anyone else reads this and is thinking about getting their Lexus serviced / repaired at a Toyota dealership, the MAJORITY of Toyota dealerships WILL service your Lexus...I've either brought my car in or inquired about service at 6 Toyota dealerships since I've gotten my SC (which was only 7 months ago), and EVERY ONE of them will do it. I don't know about Carson, as that is too far away for me, but MOST other So Cal Toyota dealerships will service Lexus

Actually, I was at Claremont Toyota yesterday giving my friend a ride to pick up her car, and I stopped in to ask about timing belt / water pump....got a quote for around $800....not a bad price at all. Just thought I'd share

Okay....i'm done...peace

OK guys lets please get this post back on topic and knock off the personal insults and picking apart wording. Nobody is going to force you to like something you don't here, but there is no need to ridicule an individual. That's not the kind of environment we want to foster here.

So yea...I think the deflectors are cool, I wish it were just blank but I dont mind the TOYOTA being on it. I might be picking up a set.

LOL this is great. JDM this JDM that. toyota this lexus that.

i like them.

and i agree with everyone that understands that their sc300 is an original toyota soarer (just without the RHD and turbo of course. hehe)

look at honda's. RSX's are Honda Integra's. same difference. personally...who cares. be proud of what u have. at least you're not taking a damn bus.

Deflector's are practical just dont like the looks. Wow interesting opinions I like we should all get online on Halo2 and battle it there lol. I would trade my sc300 for the soarer anyday btw. I'm sure the GS guys would trade for the Aristo too. The painted rims beef got the prize of the day lol.

I lmao at your silly remarks boys. You so funny
P.S And by the way why don`t you all take all the Lexus emblems off and change them to Toyota so it matches the wind deflector.
Can you PLEASE explain to me what makes top model LEXUS sc300 better than it's Toyota counterpart??

No, you can't because it's not better.

So please, get over this whole Lexus is better than Toyota thing. Same company same parts.
