What? I don't understand what you are posting about? I mean I see the auction but I just don't get your point.

I think he means that you could have just bought a SC400 in the US rather than importing all the way for Japan. Although you do get the Air-Suspension and the digital dash with this one.

I don't get it though, if its a UZZ31 (with Air-suspension) wheres the EMV screen? And why does it have a huge FMIC in the photos?

Looks like a strangely converted Soarer, maybe converted from a 1jz to a V8????

I have asked the seller why it has a massive intercooler hanging off the front of it for an N/A V8.....

Just what you need to make a UZZ31 even heavier.

The funniest thing is, someone with a SERIOUS car will come up to that thing at the lights to give him a go, he has the mentality to go the other guy, and he is going to get wiped off, because the other guy was sizing up the more powerful turbo model Soarer, only to really be racing a weighted down V8 version.

It's going to make Soarer's look bad when they are really pretty good.

OK, I exaggerated. Our family originally came from Charlottetown, PEI, Canada in 1863.
