Introduction: Moved on to a Lexus
Hows it going guys, I've been lurker here since 2004 but finally justified creating an account. I've always wanted a LS430 and now I finally got one. Got married a year ago, and had a baby boy. Because I can't fit a carseat in a RSX, I finally had the opportunity to get a LS430.
It has been one year since I bought the car as a CPO from Lexus Carlsbad. 2004 UL black, Saddle interior and 89k miles on the clock. While black was not my first choice (i actually hate black, i was looking for white or flint mica) I couldn't pass up the deal considering what i was getting, how clean the car was and the price despite it being a CPO from a dealership, I have since gown to love and hate black. Either way i don't regret my purchase I'll start a build thread if you want to see the progression of the car.
Here is my previous build:
Full exterior, slight interior, and an NA built K20a2 which puts down 265whp
BTW sold the TE's, and mirrors and used that as down payment on the LS
A video my homie made when he was first starting his cinematography gig.
Heres the new beast:

Love your LS interior
I have a 2006 Ultra, black on black. You' might see it round town, license plate VILAGE 4.
Damn things almost at 340,000 miles, gonna let it go soon.
Replacing with a Tesla S.
Can't help but feel ****ty, when I see a set of Volks/Rays. Some *******, stole mine from my yard.

Very very jealous you have the combo I wanted the most lol. Love the black with saddle interior. I know what you mean about the love/hate relationship keeping black looking good lol.
Can't wait to see what you have planned. That rsx was very well done.

I had heard that CPO was only available on 6-year-old or newer cars. It sounds like that was not correct.
Was yours actually a CPO (that is, from Lexus corporate)? or just a 3rd party warranty?
