Default noob lexus owner saying hi, but only lasted 2 months.

bought a 99 lexus ls400 with 55000 miles, i was gonna turn it to a complete show car. the easiest thing was to buy all the parts for it. i got everything but i don't have time to install them. it spent most of the time stripped sitting outside my work place on the side. fill up one tank of gas all this time until i fill up another tank after the pics were taken.

the only thing i did was full blown alarm and remote start system, double din radio and changer. and a airrunner system. the car has alot of potential but lack of time so i had to give it up.

positive and negative opinions welcome

if you sell this car what will you build next?

all the cars you build are sick, this one is also another fine example. i only can wonder how it would have looked if you were to finish it

i don't know. i still want a ucf20 kouki but hard to find one in the condition, miles and color combo i want. i guess it got to to the point where i am too picky. the acura i sold people think it is like a brand new car. this lexus it needs a complete paint job to get to my standards. however i found one silver/gray with 7900 miles, sounds like what i am looking for but my friends think i am crazy to fly out to 5000 miles to look at a lexus. so may be i will settle for a infiniti m35 white on black. at least i can get them brand new. it will be expensive but is in the condition i want.
