Default Need advice: SC400 vs GS400

Heya guys,

I had a '92 SC400 a few years ago that I really liked and sold. Picked up a super clean '00 GS400 and like it....but really miss an SC...should I sell the GS to come back SC? I would only go super clean '97-'00 SC400...white or black.

Thanks for your input!

Both are good cars, but I'd keep the 00 GS to save the hassle of changing all that out to end up with the same year car that has so many similarities.

Buy an inexpensive early SC and keep the GS.

Keep the gs and get a sc .If i had to choose between the two it will be the gs since no other car can compare to the sc.

I love the 2GS and I would say just keep that. Plus you get the convenience of four doors.

Don't forget about silver, and I think you want a 98-00. Might as well gett he 5 speed AT and higher HP.
