Default Old Member, new SC

Hey everyone,

Long overdue pics, I bought another SC the other month (a 400 this time). I've just been lurking around the forums for the past few years and just read about what everyone is up to so I figure I'll chime in with what I've been up to. I picked up my first sc300 a few years ago that I drove through college (though I've been reading about the SC years prior to my join on this site)... but now its just sitting at my parents home now until I get around to possibly modding it (it has 275k miles and will be rebuild). So I picked up a newer SC as a reliable DD but believe it or not, the starter went out RIGHT after I bought it so my brother and I are in the process of replacing it along the 90k service and other misc stuff for good measure. Both of my SCs are stock but who knows, maybe once I get this bad boy running again I might get bitten by the mod bug!

Looks good and clean...good luck with the starter, I heard they are a pain, but after that you should have a very solid car to work on.

Starters on SCs are no fun at all to get to. But that's a very nice well kept looking car. Get it moving!
