We were all expressing opinion's to answer the question in the thread title. Don't get your panties in a wad 
and start lashing out at people because they don't agree with you. As a result of your lashing out at people who choose the 300, I have to say your insecure about your own decision to go with the 400. If you were 100% confident with your choice, you wouldn't feel the need to run your mouth to people who think otherwise.

Owned a 300 now have a 400. Both are awesome cars/engines. OP - You wont be disapointed with either one. Test drive both, see which you like better, your the one making the decision here.

Well I'm at the point in where I'm undecided on what to get. I'm in love with the v8 sc400, but, I also want the sc300's 2JZGE engine because of the parts and reliability but the sad part is, they all have high mileage on them, so I would like to know what made you decide between the sc400 for it's stock power or the sc300 with it's many aftermarket modification parts and potential? any input will help, why did you choose the sc300 or sc400?
P.S look out for the words in bold, As they're the corrections.
P.P.S I would give this guy an "F" if I were his English teacher.

Just a few points that i don't think seems to have cropped up in this thread. I might think abit differently to people but i'm not into the whole power thing. I just wanted a smooth looking coupe that looked good, was reliable, wasn't too hard on the fuel and i could easily DIY @ home without too much hassle.
- Maintenance on the sc4 seems to be alot harder to do than the sc3 eg. starter motor change.
- Also here in Aus. the sc3 has hardtop, electronic nothing (seats, steering col etc.) so less electrical hassles is a plus for me. probably not so relevant for you US guys.
- Fuel is better in city start/stop driving.
- SC3 parts availability across IS3/GS3/Supra. Particularly with the volumes in which the IS3 sold here means there is always some part floating around somewhere for a good price.
As a DIY guy who uses the SC as a daily A to B car and just want minimal fuss, soemthing that looks good and is quiet the SC3 does it for me

I'm Alex Dickinson. No. I don't care about your car. Yes you still look insecure about your decision. You're the little punk *** who started running your mouth to people. I see you reside in Atlanta. I'm in Athens and would have no problem meeting you somewhere to shut that mouth of yours.
Please everyone if there is a problem or issue, alert the mod team. Thanks.
p.s- some people might have English as a 2nd or 3rd language so please, ease up on being an English internet teacher.
Should we CLOSE this thread? Surely this question has been asked a zillion times

the sc400 was great deal with not good miles.. but the engine looked clean and brand new and started up fine.. it has 280,000 miles and its an everyday driver.. it still is as fast as brand new and nothing cosmetic is wrong either.. i dont like modding engines so its whatever you prefer..
