If the ricers are scared by automatics, then my car is safe and the value is still higher than what I bought it for.

There was an SC as was pointed out in a differented thread in 2Fast2Furious that belongs to a member here on CL, during the gigantic car warehouse scene.

Wife is treating me fine...I don't think she was prepared for this level of automotive madness
. NSX has been great other than yesterday...A/C idler decided to go on strike. Seem to have found a real healthy one..this one is quicker than my other one with all the work done to it. We'll see how it responds to upgrades I checked the movie again...there's one good frame where you can clearly see your sexy head as you're about to take off out of the warehouse. Wonder what ever happened to John Nguyen's purple one from the first movie...I know he un-riced it a little and went charcoal widebody, but that was still a couple years ago. Jeff have you made a post about yours yet?- Jon

I will give some input as a "noob" with very little experience around the SC300 (~ 1 month or so).
I just happened to see one driving down the road and I wondered what it was. I looked it up and found out that it was a SC300/400. I test drove one and really liked the luxury/drivability aspect of it. It was only when I started shopping around to buy one that I found out the potential of the SC300 (I blame these forums ).
There are 2 things to consider here: 1) Most kids have the words "Honda" engraved in thier brains as being the ultimate in driving performance. 2) These same kids think the word "Lexus" is completely out of thier league, and more of a rich-mans toy. I think that most of these kids will not percieve the SC300/400 as the true cars that they are, and that the prices will stay down (the market is still pretty flooded with them as it is...)
This is assuming that the Lexus has a very small role in FF3. The Supra has a major role and thats why it had the impact it did. I think the 1jz/2jz engines will have more of a price spike than the SC300s will. (Actually, I think the video of the 9 sec Lexus will have more of an impact on thier prices than anything else
)

By the way there's several NSX's in FF3...at least according to the pics on the NSX site. Psionic...when I was a kid I definitely did not equate Honda w/ the ultimate in driving performance...guess things have changed alot.
