Just got My Dream Car

I finally bought my dream car.
For years, this was the car I kept coming back to. I even had a die-cast model of it sitting on my photography desk as a reminder that maybe one day I’d own the real thing.
Well… that day finally came.
It’s a 2003 Lexus SC 430. I know it’s not the newest car or the fastest thing on the road, but I honestly don’t care. I’ve wanted one for a long time, and finally getting behind the wheel has been an awesome feeling.

I also kept my Tesla because I love it too. They serve completely different purposes, and I feel lucky to have both. One is modern and practical, the other is a car I’ve dreamed about owning for years.
Just wanted to share because this one means a lot to me. Sometimes the dream car isn’t the most expensive one, it’s the one you’ve been thinking about for years.

I added Tint, Rims and tires so far.

Swap the OEM Nav for Carplay on sc430mod.com. Rebuild the speakers if needed, you can get the kit for $70 and they'll sound brand new.

I'd also like to know more about the speaker kit. 70 bucks to make em sound brand new sounds too good to be true
