And my first car in US !!

I choose... A SC300 of course^^







So it's a SC300 of 1999 with TAN interior and Automatic transmission and 111400 Miles.

So it's my first Automatic (In France with have only Manual) and my first Lexus.

I was buy this car because it doesen't exist in France so for me it's new and Gorgeous, awesome... !! I was knew this car because I'm a fan of drifting and too in you tube with sc's gone^^
I buy it because I Know it's easy to swap it a 1jzgte, 2jzgte or NA-T and easy to swap to a 5 or 6^^ gear box too.

So I will need a lot of help from you to explain everything !!

Nice to meet you, Laurent

your antenna should completely go all the way down. alot of members here replace it with smaller antennas. use the search button there are some threads on this. check ebay or you can even use honda s2000 antennas. btw welcome to the club
