Can't leave out Takahiro Ueno's!!! When I saw this machine, my next goal was to get one.

Here are my favorites:

Ueno





Need I say more, it is the only Soarer in D1 hat I know of (I dont follow D1closely) and it is the vehicle that started the Soarer craze for many on here. Other than the aesthetics, the chassis has been extensively modified arguably more than any Soarer out there. Best of all, it is also red

StreetKing





My original inspiration which convinced me to buy an SC300. This one somehow reminds me of the Mercedes CL. The engine of this car is a marvel. One of the fastest street driven Lexus ever.

Continued....

ACleanSC4
Hmm... the wheels look very familiar

ACleanSC



Manaray



Unknown Owner

The car is built by Driftspeed of Westminster, California, I assume. Not much is known about this car or its owner.

i don't know of anyone in the US running 10's on a 1JZGTE auto in the USA in an SC300, so i guess i'm my own inspiration to reach that goal.

Ditto....

I've seen this vehicle up close.....very clean...It was Manaray's whip that made me dream every night....kinda sucks because my car is "still", no where near his level....and he's been out of the game for awhile now....he's still lurking somewhere....damn him for such a nice ride!..LOL

me personally i think manaray has always inspired us in one way or another and i also beleive that he was really helping all of us find the real beauty in our SC with his clean sense of style and performance.

there have been a few SCs that have inspired me. not in what mods, but just to go all out and keep it clean. cleanSC, SW (streetking), manaray, acleansc4, nextlevel, and a few others.

however... when it comes to the real motivation, i have to be the one that makes it happen. i want to take my SC in a dirrection no other SC has been before. when that happens, ill be sure to post up and perhase someday, someone will say ki_soarer inspired me to build my SC!
