Just bought a 2000 LS400
Just picked up this beast yesterday 
. One owner 52k miles, runs and looks like new.
What performance mods do you recommend?
Heres some pics:

Better check that coolant reservoir, looks pretty low. Along those lines, you may consider you'll be up for the 60K maintenance but at this age, doing the 90K and that includes timing belt and related might be wise. (Water pump, idlers, cam seals, serpentine belt, thermostat...)
10 year old car with this low miles...might be lots of short stop-go or lots of garage sitting. The front drivers seat looks to be split...seems odd. Can't quite tell by the photo.
Make sure the basics are covered before making mods. Performance mods...PD will say search but basically, there aren't many but exhaust and any custom stuff you want to undertake.

That looks very nice. I would also get the timing belt and water pump done soon as possible. I would also get any other maintenance items out of the way before doing any mods.

the dealer might not of been 100% honest but i doubt i got "scammed." You try finding one as clean and with as low miles for 13k
