Default Bye Bye LS460L



I had to let go to the nicest car i have ever had last week. I was able to get someone to take over my lease for the remaining term, but when the new owner came to pick it up, it was a very sad moment for me.

I just had to cut down on my expenses as business has been real tough lately.

On a positive note, I WILL get another LS460L sometime in the near future, the same setup, Datasystems lowering module with the 22" Auto Coutures. It was the only one up here in Sacramento lowered...... I received so many compliments on the setup from everyone!! I loved the car!! It was unique.

I still have the wheels if anyone is looking to buy them and although not a Lexus owner as of right now, if anyone needs help installing the Datatsystems feel free to contact me. I sent Derrick at D2 some pics to help with installs.

Glad to hear you found someone to take over the lease payments for you. You did a great choice on the wheels (inspired me to get them). I'm sorry that you had to give it up and hope that your wish of getting back into one once business gets better happens for you!

Sorry to hear you had to let it go, Glad you found someone to take over the lease. I can't tell you how many times I have looked at your pics, I have the smoky granite also and have been thinking about the auto coutures myself. I just ordered the datasystems controller. I even bid on your wheels when they were on ebay but I forgot when your auction ended and missed out.

Couldn't you work a deal where you could give up the house, and keep the car?

As zzzzdoc said, you can sleep in the car, but you can't drive the house.

Good Luck!

Parting is such sweet sorrow...

...hopefully your LS will remain in good hands.

And yes, there are more important things than cars, as much as we love them. Still, please feel free to stay in touch on this board.

The new owner was an older gentleman. And the way i see it is that the LS can always be bought again!!
