It keeps 50/50 weight distribution actually.

Simple power, light, sexy FD; has it all. Then throw a Cobra pumpkin in there, oh man... I want.

I had a feeling it would be close, but not only 60 pounds off from the rotary. LS1's are amazing...

I'll be getting a farm truck, something with an 8 foot bed and enough power to tow a trailer for animals.

It's going to be a long time but...

Probably a 911. I mean there's a lot of cars that I want but I'm just going to skip all of them and go right to the meat.

So instead of waiting to get a 460 i'll probably get a 430 later this year.
Yeah, I used to like the 460, but I'm not really impressed with any of the newer Lexus' in terms of design outside of the IS(not including the SC430). I liked the the second generation ES, GS, and the first three LS' better than any of the newer Lexus'(except the IS). The old LS400 and LS430 were perfect. I'll get an LS430 or a GS430 once the prices drop some more. 90's and early 00's cars were so much cooler than the ones we have now....

I will never sell the sc300 it would just be a waste of money so it will be stored in the garage. toyota yaris is going to be my next car here within the next few months.......lol yea i know, but it will be a dd. But then once the new dd is paid off im going to get a sc430.

I would like to get an Infiniti G35 coupe for my next car, but realistically, I'm more likely to get a 5spd '87-'93 Fastback Foxbody 5.0 Mustang...I've always loved those cars.
