I am sure most of you won't like this, but to me this is better than any ls400 i have ever seen period. It was a 97, dark blue, with bbs rs 17 inch wheels, and the ls400 emblem removed, but all the other emblems left on. That's all. Stock ride hight, stock turn signals, no body kits.

To me this car looked better than my 430. It just looked so classy. if anyone has any pics of a car set up like this, i sure would like to have them.

how did you know it was a 97 specifically? I ask because when you remove the emblems on a '95+ LS400 there are holes left in the trunk...

yet '89-94 LS400s had no holes in the trunk, and more importantly didn't have any LS400 emblems at all. (at least earlier 89-92 ones didnt iirc)

My 92 does have holes in the trunk the the L but not for the LS400. Yes mine did come with the LS400 emblems on it already, during the earlier years, it was pretty much at dealer discression to put it on or not.

those are PRODUCTION years, not model years (which are shown on the right side.)
