I'd be interested to know what is stamped into the front quarter panel behind the moulded strip just to the rear of the wheel, on a factory badged Lexus one.
I had to remove mine and was surprised to see TOYOTA stamped / moulded into the panel. If it say's toyota what then ??

Might have to ask the Yanks.

Yours is a Toyota, as are ALL Soarers in Australia bar one or two that were actually imported from USA and converted from LH drive.

Yep, just thought if the yank ones have Toyota it would throw a spanner in the the debate, making the whole grey area a bit larger.
"If the factory badges em Lexus with toyota stamped in the panel why can't I" or something similar.
Mines badged Toyota
Wifes is Lexus.
What fence?

Apologies for the terrorist activity.

I know this thread sure did stir some emotion - however I just wanted to know if anyone knows my answer to this one - I was reading up on the 1UZ on an american site (Clublexus) and a lot of them seem to call their cars Soarers too, did they get Soarer's and Lexus's, or maybe they badge their lexus's as soarers??

I dont want anyone to start another •••• fight over this its just a question.

I expect they badged their SC300/SC400 as Soarer because I have never heard that the Soarer name was available there. It is, so far as I know, uniquely the Japanese name for the Toyota JDM vehicles. I wonder if they changed the Lexus badge to Toyota as well?

I wonder if there is a guy in the US who jumps on the forums and tells everyone off for putting Toyota Soarer badges on their Lexus SC***???
