Hey, I have a Toyota Soarer V8, but it has Lexus SC400 badges, and I have been told it would have to had been re-badged as there were no RHD SC400's, So what im curious about is it really a "Limited" model like the side badge sais? It has all the leather,electric seats,touch screen a/c,radio, 12 stacker in boot, electric sunroof etc. Which model has all the options?

Dude... stop making new topics every time you have a new question... you've asked about the SC400 versus Soarer thing in another topic, this could have easily been asked there.

Anyways, to answer the question... yes, the limited is the top spec with all those bells and whistles you mentioned. Any more questions? :-)

Yeah, it's just re-badged, like all Soarers in Australia with Lexus badges.

Limited Model is essentially the top range model of the V8 Soarer with most of the options ticked.

A limited will surely have leather and air suspension or active suspension.

Other features you will usually see on a limited could be the EMV touch screen, TRC, CD Stacker, memory seats, heated seats, electric steering column, and so on.

The 4.0GT is the base model V8 Soarer but still comes with everything you would want, personally I like them the most.

The model with all the options could be either an air or active suspension Limited. It all depends on what boxes were ticked when it was being built, some guys here have Soarers with nearly everything minus the odd small thing, one nice rare feature the limited had was a factory LSD diff, but you dont see them too often.

Yeah, it has the memory seats,air suspension, and TRC, so i guess it is definitely a "Limited" model, It seems to drive like it has an LSD, if i hit the throttle hard around a corner, it has no trouble swinging the back end out!

Hmm, 25, hanging the tail out on a Soarer.

These are heavy cars which build plenty of rotational energy if you get them swinging. Please don't wrap yourself around a tree or you will never start another thread. :-)

If you use Search, you will discover the secret of how to know whether it has a factory LSD.
