In before the lock. There are a ton of differences. If you wish to convert your sc to a soarer you midas well import one. Oh and please use the search button or google Toyota soarer.

6 days after I joined CL (9 years and 32,00 posts ago) asked the exact same question and got some damn good responses that will be exactly what the OP is looking for.

Thanks yeah I got a 1991 Toyota Soarer TT
I heard there where alot of similarities and differences but I wanted to know for sure the difference so I can know which parts are interchangable between the two you know? I had the soarer for about a year, really am digging it, though it's an automatic I had inspairation to do a 5speed swap on it, but it seems like alot of work and I don't even know where to begin :S either way though sc300/Soarers are indeed damn right sexy all around

The biggest difference is that the Soarer is fast and the SC is not.

You want the SC, it's a lot nicer. How about a trade + cash on your end.
