Spotted at Park Place Lexus a few weeks ago when I was in for an oil change and awaiting my service adviser ... 2 SCs pulled in within moments of each other.. one BLACK and one WHITE... the Yin and Yang of SCs

Very nice!!!! Why is it we appreciate SC's more when you see (others) them on the road than you do your own car?

Got that right. You are always in awe of somebody else's SC.

A fellow SC member visited me this weekend and we swapped cars. Nice color, Twilight Amethyst Pearl, an 05. Drove around West Cobb here in Marietta. 1st time I saw my Sc from the rear view mirror. Nice view.

Then a friend who owns a Black SC joined us for dinner Sunday and just the same, love his Black SC.

Mandyfig you have nothing to be jealous of. You have a very nice color yourself. As far as seeing "her" car from outside. I watch it everytime she leaves the house. Can't wait to get home and get her out of the garage. Mandy what color is your interior?

Derek is absolutely right... so weird, when I travel I love seeing them and am mesmerized! In the Seattle area I saw more than anywhere else to date.

Anyone remember the first time you ever saw one? Mine was 2002, driving down the 405 in LA and this fabulous blue (I now know is Indigo Ink Pearl) came by me with the top down and I thought.. I want one of those... Only took me 8 years to get one! Worth the wait.

I will admit that I'm still jealous of Alexus' tigereye Mica Pearl. I've only that color twice in real life but I've stared/drooled/twisted my neck each time.

Two thumbs up 76210Guy.

We should have a meet soon and let you really see it up close and personal. I was looking for a Silver/Saddle combo but when I saw this old girl I had to have her

I hope you don't have anything against me walking up and giving your car a hug. I'm known to do such things...

LOL public displays of affection for a car is absolutely OK in my book!
