Sadly to remove all temptation it was sold, however the money I am saving per month on company car tax, insurance on the Soarer, fuel, mods etc etc I'll more than enough to buy another, better example.

Nice looking car mate,

Answer me one question though,

How come some places you look its called a 'Lexus' Soarer, and in others its a 'Toyota' Soarer ? Am presuming they are the same company but the Soarer has a Toyota engine doesnt it ? Presumably its a similar one to that in the Supra ?

Welcome by the way mate,

I always known Lexus as being the posh Toyota,, comes out the same factory but a bit better quality,, that is if there is such thing as better quality than Toyota

Welcome by the way mate,

The truth.

There never was a LEXUS Soarer. It was a Toyota Soarer Or in the states a Lexus SC300/ SC400

The US never got a 2.5 TT

Now with Lexus seeming more "Luxury" than Toyota many owners decided to adopt the Lexus for thier Soarer, as they are so luxury, sort of like a 280 bhp leather Sofa.

Now it has even spread to the V5 forms I know of atleast 12 Soarer 2.5 TT's that have LEXUS SOARER on the V5 mine included.

In a Nutshell

IT'S A BRAND THING

Lexus instead of Toyota

Coke Instead Of Panda Pops

That makes me think of the comparison between Gareth's (RX7) and my skyline.

It's like leather and lace .. or Chocolate and Vanilla

... or probably

House Brick and Net Curtains :-D
