GS400 vs. SC400

Yeah, both are nice-looking and very clean designs. You will be happy with either one. The GS and SC are classics. I can still remember seeing the new GS (at the time) for the first time on the street. I like the GS window line's long, rounded shape. It looks so smooth and elegant.
I really admire the clean SC design. It's really grown on me since I got my SC. Strangely, I never really noticed the SC's body line(s) until I bought my SC. I never thought I would own an SC but here I am with one. I've always wanted a Lexus since they are known as being so reliable and trustworthy. The quality is incredible. One thing, though: Maintenance and parts are expensive. Shortly after I got my SC, I had to pay $1850 in maintenance so not exactly the warm welcome I was expecting from Honda to Toyota/Lexus. For now on, I'm buying all my future cars from the local classifieds (Craigslist), not from a sneaky dealership. BTW, the SC backseat I thought was pretty comfortable. It feels like the leather is hugging you, though the GS backseat would be much roomier obviously.

wow $1850 for maintenance...what do you need to replace right after you purchased your SC..?? I was planning to buy off of a dealership, do you have any pointer what i need to inspect when buying an SC..?? Also, who possessed a better and stronger suspension between the two..?? And does the parts cost about the same when it comes to suspension..??
