Nothing exciting. The car is a little rough looking but runs and drives fantastic. It's for my daughter who will be driving in a year. So now I have a 99 GS300, a 95 SC300 turbo, and this 93 SC400. I gotta say, I'm instantly a fan of the 1UZ-FE. It won't stick with my boosted SC, but its a lot of fun and has some pep.

She's a great kid. Straight A's, does volunteer work, never gives me (OK, rarely gives me) any grief. She deserves it.

Wish I got a SC for my first car lol! Well it sounds like she might be keeping the car stock and I suggest 97 tails on that color, makes the car look 100x newer

I had a pathfinder as my first car. It was a 1994. I ended up selling it then the guy who bought it blew up the tranny in 500 miles cause he decided he'd try and pull a 15000lb trailer with it lolz

Very nice and stock The 400's are indeed peppy. I love the pickup it has around 50-70 MPH, really helps when merging/cutting off slow drivers.
