Very nice, needs a flat whale tail-esque spoiler IMO and it'd be mega mint, is it LHD or RHD, can u afford the insurace??? its a toyota not a lexus, i know they are the same but in a way they are not. U cud put a lexus badge in place of the 'yoto badge tho and itll look posher
Posted By: Meesh Re: Want This One! - 5th Apr 2005 6:55pm
I know the badge is a Toyota, its just it was on the site as a Lexus

Haven't yet checked insurance, but loan would cover both car and insurance easily....

This is all IF the loan is accepted lol

u may get refused insurance if u are under 21 as it is a coupe and if u r under 24 i can see the premium being rediculous mate, ill find a quote on a 22 and a 25 year old

Very nice cars matey, as you may or may not know i used to have one but the 4.0 Litre non-turbo. So So Smooth. They are a Lexus in america (Left hand drive) but a Toyota in Japan (Right hand drive) but exactly the same vehicle.

Found these pictures of a Modded Soarer

If I remember correctly, aren't they Toyota Supra's with a different body??

You will need a second mortgage if anything goes wrong on one of those things!!

do it now. im in simular position 2 u in going 4 a bigger sized insurance groupin on my next motor. the car does matter but ther r silly exeptions out ther.

4 me i found a celica gt4 1991 h (insurance grp 16/17) 2 b cheaper than 1989 5 turbo (insurance group 14/15) why i dont no. moral o story is just try em.

p.s. loans r evil. b carefull not 2 get stung on so called low apr deals. if u want any advise from a car loan insider just ask.

They did 3 different engines in that shape, the 2.5 1JZ-GTE, a 3.0 2JZ-GE and a 4.0

The 3.0 was apparently the one to have as basically the motor was the same as the Supra, although the size was the same, the stroke had been increased and bore reduced to give the car more torque than outright power to suit the type of car it was and the auto box they where fitted with.

In Japan the car is known as the Toyota Soarer, its on in Europe and US its known as Lexus (Luxury Export US wink ).
