Its called Blue by You. Its an 03 only color and it was pretty rare. Seeing as how the 03's were a new release anyway.

Im definitely planning a turbo in the SC's future.

Congrats on the pickup!

Haha I go on SCE when I'm bored and there are quite a few trolls there LOL.

Can't wait for pics and future progress!

nice car man.. I believe that's a fairly rare color as well.

Evo's are pretty cool, practical sedans, can be fast as hell, handle amazing!

always been too afraid of DSM issues to mess with one though, even though i'm sure the newer 4g63's in those have less issues then the old dsm eclipse/talon days


SC300's are weird though, once you boost one or start modding it, they grow on you..

I want to sell mine now, but this has happend before this is my 3rd SC everytime i sell one, i start looking at other cars then realize I want a little luxury but i want a sports car, and nothing else seems to really fill that as well..

plus the cars are made so well..

Got some stuff done on the car today.

Did an alignment, was off a bit and steering wheel was crooked.
Check engine light came on, and after pulling the code I find its an EGR malfunction code. However, that Trac Off light came on with it... I thought that was weird... Is this common?
Ordered a K&N drop in filter for since I can get one cheap.
Changed out some bulbs in the taillights... however the bulb warning light stays on on the dash. I verified that all the exterior lights are working, including the plate lights... Im lost.
Restored the headlights, they look BRAND NEW.

Thoughts?

I had an Evo, and even in stock trim I like the SC better than the Evo.

I am picking mine up from the owner today after it being detailed and what not. I already like this forum and the info it contains.
Welcome to the house brother....I hope you find this place as fun as I have.
