Default Goodbye CL =(

So a few of you guys know already.. my car sold last week. The buyer will be picking her up this Saturday. .

I have not decided on a replacement yet nor do I know if I will be back in this community again. I want to thank many many of the OG homies here on Club Lexus you guys know who you are!, and all the various So Cal Meets we had.

I really expected to keep this car forever.. however I bought a new home and a newer car is catching my eye.

So here is a collection of pictures of my car before she leaves me forever....











With tons of love for the SC game, Club Lexus, keep it classy homies. Ill pop in time to time to see how this forum develops.

Sad to see another fine example of an SC and great SC owner go. Good luck with your next purchase, hope you'll be back soon (with a vengeance haha).

Didn't know about CL will last year, and when was still shopping around for a SC on Craigs. I would always see your car and think... damn that is one sexy coupe.

It's sad to see you go man. You were one of the guys that inspired me to get an SC. I always thought you had one of the cleanest SC's I've ever seen.

Good luck with the new home and car. What kind of car did you end up getting if you don't mind me asking?

I want to stay in the Lexus family sadly theres nothign to replace my car with that would make me happy...

I might be going 335i it is a direct upgrade from my SC... twin turbo, coupe, newer style, refined interior, and a decent trunk space. Chipped and tuned im looking at 370whp.

Or be a bum and drive my Honda Fit for a while...

Reading everyone comments makes me not want to sell, but the buyer is giving me asking price.

Sad to see you go, I loved your car man. Hopefully new owner takes care of it. I thought about selling mine too but once I go E85 with new tune and get to 7XX hp range I'll be happy for a while lol.

Your SC has made an impression on many members including myself. Good luck with your next build!
