  1. Hey guys. It's time for a new car. I always loved the look of the Lexus SC 300 and 400. But i'm not completely convinced that i want one. I'm torn between the the Lexus and the Porsche 944. I need to hear some suggestions as to why or why not i should buy the Lexus. I have about $6,000 to play with and both the Lexus and Porsche are in my price range. The thing that is really swaying me into buying the Porsche is the manual tranny. I know some 300's did come with a manual but they were rare. Also if i bought the Lexus i'd rather have the 400, unless you guys convince me otherwise. Now i'm not new to modifying cars (i had a custom turbo'd Tiburon 12.3 1/4 mile and i currently have a 94' Camaro z/28 383hp 12.1 1/4 mile). So swapping a manual tranny into the 400 wouldn't be too big of an obstacle. I've done some research and it seems like the Getrag V160, R154 and W58 trannys are all compatible with the 1UZ 4.0 V8 (correct me if i'm wrong). I just want to get some opinions if i should buy the Lexus or if i'm just going to be wasting my time. -Thanks guys.
