lol i think i was getting about 17mpg, my last car got around 34mpg

now that i've sold my SC i realize i really want another one, i just don't wanna go through building one again right this sec, so i'll probably grab the GS for now and sell or trade it to build another SC down the road, i'd start on another one now but i'd be afraid trying to find a car as clean as my last one and having such a clean swap that i'd be disappointed if it didn't compare to the last one.



Kaydee- it literally sold in one day lol

No!!! Your car was one of my favorites on here! Hopefully you'll find your way back to an SC one of these days. Sorry to hear she had to go.

LOL, when you need excuses, I guess gas mileage can be one. Some SCs get 25-30mpg highway, and this one was stock as a rock, so i don't get it.

And planning on buying a GS, which is heavier and worse on gas?


Nice car though, would have loved to see it with a bit more power though.

wtf man. You only got 17mpg with the 1J? My friend's single turbo 1J gets high 20s...he averages about the same mileage as my 2JZ-GE.

Your SC was gorgeous man! Someone else had posted a picture of it on IA for me, and I was DEFINITELY impressed with how beautiful your SC was. So clean...and a color that I never get to see. Plead temporary insanity and go get it back!

I know how you feel. I'm gonna be selling my SC later on too. I have too many cars right now and need to get rid of two cars. I'm planning on keeping my MR2 Turbo and the Tundra.

I most likely will buy another SC, but not anytime soon.
